Iron Mike Tyson vs ex-UFC or pride heavyweights

Revisionist history, more to the story than just the record. Dude basically destroyed his own life and career and peaked well before he had the big name fights. Millionaire at 19 with no guidance and surrounded by leeches couldn't possibly end well.

Also It's not like Cus D'Amato was teaching an unproven fighting style, even if Mike didn't execute on it we know it worked well as fuck historically.
He made a chinny MW the youngest HW champion in history before Mike, bodes well for success in a relatively weak division hypothetically.
Well Lennox Lewis boxed Tysons ears off. Boxing was opening up and I think those eastern european guys would have given Tyson fits.

Yeah that literally applies to what I said: a burnt out coke head past prime post prison Tyson lost to one of the greatest fighters of his generation.

It's really not the indictment you want it to be.
 
I wouldn’t be shocked if Roy smashes aluminum foil Mike. Mike is probably the single most overrated athlete of all time. His best win is a washed up Holmes or Razor. He is a front runner that caves when pressured and has jaw is glass now too.
Uh.... what? Tyson has the glass jaw, not Roy? Tyson? Am I in bizarro world here?
 
Fuck it, I'll wake up eventually, I think. I'll fight Mike.
<28>
 
I would enjoy Tyson v Cro Cop, kickboxing but without leg kicks.

I’m not bothering with Tyson v RJJ (big fan of both half a lifetime ago) but I would pay for Tyson v CC.
