1987 Heavyweight Champion Mike Tyson against 1974 Heavyweight Champion Muhammed Ali? I think Ali would have won a 15 round decision.

Anyone remember the Ali - Ernie Terrell fight? Ali absolutely tortured Terrell for 15 rounds. Mainly because Terrell wouldn't call him Ali. Anyway Ali would do the same to Tyson. Just beat him like he owed him money for 15 rounds.

Tyson - W 50 (KO's 43) TF 58 - W pct 86% - KO pct 74% - wins over Holmes, P. Thomas and Spinks - KO'ed by Holyfield[2], Douglas (average fighter) and Lewis - #16 ranked puncher - #72 ranked fighter
Tyson did not have Frazier's will or heart
Ali - W 56 (KO's 35) TF 61 - W pct 92% - KO pct 57% - wins over Frazier{2}, Liston[2], Foreman and Patterson{2} - KO'ed by Holmes (Ali was washed up) - #3 ranked fighter
Greatest chin ever/add will and heart
Great boxing skills and athletic speed/prowess
In this fight Ali would not have used the rope-a-dope and surprised Tyson and the world with and early KO of Tyson by Ali

Ali's career was coming to an end and Tyson was just beginning his.I would have to give this one to Ali by a split decision in a very hard fought match and Ali would be hurt in this one

Why do people keep asking this immensely idiotic question?
How can you compare a guy who beat Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Sonny Liston and knocked out a 23 year old George Foreman to a guy who got knocked out by Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield, Buster Douglas, Danny Williams and quit against Kevin McBride and Holyfield, the second time?

Ali. Tyson would lose his composure and Ali would pick him apart......Although 74 Ali was getting a tad old.
