Ali vs Tyson...in their prime...who wins?

Answer 1

ali
Tyson is a big Loser

Answer 2

Ali was only "GREAT" at saying that he is the greatest. Apparently some people here bought into the hype. Tyson in the mid-80s was less talk and more action. There has never been and probably never will be another prime Tyson. He was a machine in his prime. In a real fight both at their primes, Ali would talk a lot of smack leading up to the fight and Tyson would be relatively quiet. In the ring Ali would dance around throwing jabs and Tyson's peek-a-boo defense would be a huge foil to the outside potshotting. If Ali survives the counter, and tries the rope-a-dope as if Tyson was like Foreman, oh man, look out! Tyson can find the opening inside and unlike Foreman, Tyson would hit you with an 8 hit combo where all 8 hits are KO blows. Forget about this silly debate. People thought Michael Spinx was going to beat Tyson. How ridiculous.

Answer 3

Tyson in the third.

people give him a bad rap for his mistakes. But his physical fitness far exceeded any fighter before him. His aggressive style was developed from a young age. His talent far exceeded Joe Frasier and George Foreman.

Ali was amazing though. He took Sugar Ray Robinson's style and brought it to the heavyweights. After winning the Olympics he became the youngest world champion (until Tyson). Combined with his knockout power it's no wonder he is considered the greatest.

Most people think Ali would take Tyson the distance and win on points. But I have to be honest with today's fighters and all we know about training the human body these days Ali just would not dominate the way he did in his day, and the way Tyson did in his prime.

Answer 4

Tyson in his prime... no doubt. All you have to do is watch the tapes of these two. Ali was the luckiest boxer on earth... well... maybe not... look at him now.

Tyson destroyed people... Ali NEVER hurt people like Tyson did.

If those two ever fought.... the only way Ali would win is if he ran from Tyson for 12 (oppps I mean 15) rounds. LMAO!

Answer 5

If a boxer of limited skills could outbox Tyson the way buster Douglas did, no wonder what Ali in his prime would do to him.

By the way, today's training regime would be available to Ali too; then, he would still prevail with his Superior intelligence and boxing skills

Answer 6

Ali if you all don't know by now Muhammad Ali is not the greatets for no reason, he was very quick and hit really hard... "fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee" in all Ali would whoop tyson's *** even though Tyson was a good fighter.

Answer 7

Have you ever seen Ali vs. Liston I?
Ali would flat out beat the hell out of Tyson. Ali in a cake walk.

Answer 8

i have honestly met Ali in man or woman and he had very wide shoulders. Ali stands at about 6"3 and Tyson might want to've have a difficulty attaining Ali. Ali might want to've beat Tyson becasue Ali changed into too smart. He had each and every weapon you want - ability, Quickness, attain, sturdy Jab, Rope-A-Dope, and better options video games. Ali might want to've suggested some thing smart and were given actual into Tyson's head. case in point i might want to listen a reporter asking Ali whose going to win the strive against and Ali might want to've suggested some thing like "i'm too especially, and he's a pity". you comprehend the way Ali changed into?

Answer 9

Ali

Answer 10

Ali. he would've stopped Tyson inside of seven rounds.

Answer 11

I'd like to say Ali. i don't know that I can. Tyson was incredible in his prime.

If Tyson could connect, he could win -- but Ali might be able to dance away & ire him out.
