    I would use hit-and-run: hit him with a school bus and then run like Hell ....

    Yeah don't run or back off, if Tyson is coming forward he can get full leverage and momentum on his punches.
    Wait until Mike lowers his head that's what he usually did just before an attack, when he drops his head quickly step in with a couple of punches and then tie him up and if possible when in the clinch walk Mike backwards so he's on the outside, worked for Evander.

    Constantly move, jab, tie him up. And tie him up some more...to a hideously boring degree. DON'T be Bonecrusher, but make sure to land the jab on each break (having a 1980 Larry Holmes jab might win you the fight)...then tie him up again. So, basically make the crowd boo so loud you have to wear earplugs. If you're feeling lucky in the last round, throw uppercuts and straight rights. Then hold. After every one.
