It's usually some snot nosed kid making a claim like that.


I wanted to comment on this. Ali is the all time greatest make no mistake. But a prime Tyson would have been a scary opponent for Ali. No one ever mentions George Foreman though. I want to see that fight,Prime Ali vs George ,the hardest puncher in the history of the game.


Ali would have out boxed Iron Mike,but when he had Cus D'amato in his corner? He might have knocked Ali tfo. It's speculative at best. Yes Buster Douglas beat Tyson but by that time Mike had a myriad of problems . He destroyed his own legacy.

Anyway I hear what you're saying and largely agree with it,but I wouldn't put it past a young hungry focused Mike Tyson to pull off an upset on Ali. 9 of 10 though is ridiculous.

Now Marvis Frazier on the other hand. Watch that knockout . Tyson knocked that poor bastard out at least 4 times in 6 seconds rofl

He was like a crumpled up piece of paper in the corner when he was done with him.
