Who wins in their prime?
I know Ricardo would be giving up 120 pounds to Mike, but man could Ricardo ever box. I think Lopez jabs and lands combinations and wins by a mid-to-late round KO.

Hmmm tough call.. In their primes I think Tysons size advantage would let him win enough of the early rounds to get a narrow decision... But nowadays Tyson is reall shot Id have to agree Lopez by mid round TKO.

lopez is an alltime great, but its absurd to think that a guy that little wouldnt get rocked (at the very least) by a clean solid punch from one of the hardest hitting heavyweights of all time.
Lopez would murder Tyson
Tyson would win. He was a combination puncher in his prime with a pretty good defense. And we're talking about a flyweight against a Heavyweight right ??? Sheer mass alone Mike would win this fight. He could very well kill Lopez. People talk about weighing in 5 pounds over the weight being an unfair advantage. Imagine Tyson weighing 100 pounds over and it being legal ??? Tyson would beat Lopez badly. And it may have nothing to do with style or whatever just body mass alone...
Yeah I pretty much agree. I was surprise Sweet Pea would do such a fooish threadQuote:

I'm trying to decide which is funnier.......
1. That no one realized that this thread was a complete joke...
or
2. That a couple people actually agreed that Lopez would win!!
Tyson could knock Lopez out with a jab from his knees.
tyson would knock out lopez with his pinky and then eat his whole body live on stage.

seriously this is crazy, tyson was more fearsome and ferocious than a prime liston, he woould have killed lopez within the first 30 seconds.
have a nice day
also tyson was a very good boxer, good defense, fast as a welterweight! this dude would make u miss and then he'd make you pay, and hell, its BE A HEAVY PRICE!
Dude, look at the second post I made in this thread.... It was a joke.Quote:

shit man sorry i didnt read ur second post, i jus read the first two, skipped a few and then the last couple. ;)
Oh yeah the jokes on me..... Lol never mind the fact that you couldn't recognize pure sarcasm and felt the need to break it down.. Look at my post, I said a prime Tyson might win enough of the early rounds to get a narrow decision over a man who weighed 106 lbs and you think Im serious.Quote:

Yes after the man half his size lasted those 6 rounds he'd be in big trouble.Quote:

I just came across it on accident, this is why we need a thread hall of fame section.
What could Mike Tyson do? Punch Lopez with his overrated power? Lopez wins by late tko.
ARE YOU SERIOUS DUDE? WOW .... Some of the people in here i swear...Quote:

I just feel that something weird is happening in this thread... actually even in this forum. People are starting threads which make no sense. That happened after Pac demolished DLh. ;D
BruceLee is thinking to himself:
Bring Pac into a discussion about a possible fight between Ricardo Lopez and Mike Tyson......Check.
Next up, Manny Pacquiao and the crisis in Darfur, possible connections?
well if yall had read the 1st page u would find out that this a JOKE. and if u took this seriously then some of u look like asses. :moon-new:
This is a stupid thread and I am embaressed for the established members for even debating such a thread on the main board
I must be missing something here. Are people seriously making a case for Lopez to beat Tyson ;D
I would replace stupid with hilarious
The serious (sometimes angry) responses to what was a so unbelievably obvious joke post are what makes this thread gold.
And just when I thought the main board was becoming unbearably dull (OMFG Haye and Vitali don't like each other!) this gem comes along.

As if there is nothing in boxing worth talking about besids this:rolleyes:
Well there's a thread on which retired boxers have let themselves go, and there's a thread on which retired boxers have stayed in shape, this is a Mt. Rushmore thread compared to those.
I mean angry as in the people who got pissed off that anybody could think Lopez would beat Tyson, hilarious.
;D
This is a classic Saddo thread. We used to have loads of these a couple of years ago.
Nothing BETTER than people falling hook line and sinker for an obvious joke thread.
and not for the first time Lionheart Lacy takes the idiot of the day award :rolleyes:Quote:

No way Lopez had great power, he takes him out late. As for your question... am I serious... are you serious?Quote:

P4P even I have to say Lopez. :)
I'm pretty sure some took it seriously with a mythical match up I made between Malignaggi and Aaron Pryor and lets be fair that dwarfs this one.Quote:
