Tyson's right versus Ali's chin.

Hmm if Tyson' cant step in , I'd imagine that would sap a bit of his power, because he wouldn't get much momentum on the punch. I'd say Ali still stands, but gets wobbled a bit.

 

Alis chin. Ali will know the punch is coming. Everytime Ali got kd, I do not believe he saw the punch, knew it was coming or where it wasd landing. It came from hooks that started low and were not tracked. Not to mention his footing/stance was completely wrong for all of the kds. I think it was sqaure on v Banks, on his toes, straight legged and leaning forward for Cooper and throwing an uppercut for Frazier.

 

Actually I take that back . I'm not sure if Ali would still be standing, because we know Tyson could hit super hard from any angle, flat-footed or not. He had great technique and used leverage for his punches. So I'd say Ali would likely get dropped, but who knows.

 

Ali takes it with a bit of a shudder. After all he stood in front of George Foreman for 8 rounds, a single shot from Tyson won't be any worse than that.

you cant really compare it like that. foreman never landed clean on ali's chin. tyson has the combonation of speed and power to hurt ali. he could drop him but he aint knocking ali out.

 

Tyson's best punch was his left hook, and if Sir 'enry can deck Ali/Clay with his left hook, Tyson, if he can get it off, he would have a fair chance as well. But weather it would be enough to keep Ali on the floor is another matter.

 

This is all there needs to be said. KO punches are the ones you don't see.

 

if ali could get up from frazier's left hook, he would be able to get up from tyson's.

 

Tyson at his best hit harder than Frazier, but you are right in that I think as well Ali would get up if Tyson hit him with a left hook.

 

Ali's chin.

 

tyson is a harder puncher no doubt but you will seldom see a more vicious left hook then the one frazier hit ali with.

 

I'll take a great chin over great power every time. Ali is left standing.
