    Fact is you could have a different winner everytime, I couldn't say that any one fighter would stand head and shoulders above the others in this kind of scenario, to many variables. Wild punches, kicks and elbows from mulitple directions.

    I would discount the smaller guys like Frazier and Dempsey they would just get man handled against the bigger guys like Foreman and Vitali in a no holds barred fight.

    I see Tyson, Tua, Foreman, Mercer, Vitali and Liston all doing well and these guys would be left standing once the others had been taken care of. Vitali is a kick boxer, Tyson is known for rough tatics and biting, Tua is just a tank, Mercer was in the army, Foreman was very strong and powerful and Liston was a genuine badman. I couldn't pick a winner.

    I remember a funny quote from a uk analyst. Someone said, if you put lewis tyson and holyfield in a room who would win. And the guy said tyson and holy wouldnt back down and would beat the c**p out of each other, and lewis would just walk out the room and let them get on with it.

    Remember, raw physical attributes will only get you so far in a situation like this. At some point, mental and physical toughness will be required and that survival instinct will have to kick in. Does Tyson have enough of those attributes to make it out of this situation...given the others guys in the room with him? I'm not sure...:think

    Excellent points, Tyson would quit once he got hit really hard a couple of times and truly understood the challenge ahead of him. This is why my choice is Frazier or Mercer. My sentimental choice is Quarry but...

    I know I know, poor Jerry would definitely be game and I do think he'd last for a bit because he was born for this kind of scenario but these are some pretty tough guys. I had to include him because I honestly think he'd do well if placed in this sort of scenario but he would eventually get overwhelmed...:-(

    Yeah I'd give Dempsey a better chance than Tyson for his mental toughness alone. The fighter with the most intestinal fortitude and who is also able to exhibit mental toughness for the longest period of time will come out on top.

    Depends upon his training and the kind of situations he was in while in service. Possible combat training other than boxing, if he was ever in a real life combat situation that could give him an edge in experience when dealing with a dangerous situation. I don't know any details as to his service record but it could be advantageous.

    Yeah military training/experience would certainly help with the mental requirments to be successful with this kind of test.

    It's not a one on one. They are all crammed in their together. Slick boxing is gonna count for very little.

    Size and Bang is gonna be what counts. For me the Lean Mean Grilling Machine Fries the rest!!!
