Greatest Heavyweight Of All-Time, Semi-Final: Mike Tyson vs. George Foreman

[WelshDevilRob]

I had to go for Tyson. He was just unstoppable in his prime.

You need to watch some old Foreman fights!

Tyson because he had better technique, size, speed, timing and power than Frasier. Foreman would not have time to set up his punches. In a strange way it could go to points if no-one was knocked out early similar to the Rudduck fight where both just absorb the bombs and Tyson had better conditioning at his best.

Foreman stood up to Ron Lyle, Joe Frazier, and when he was 40 plus years old he took punches from Holyfield that knocked out Mike Tyson......George took those when he was 40.....AND he hurt Holyfield some in the fight too....more than Tyson ever did and don't bring up this PRIME stuff George was 40 freaking years old when he fought Evander so Mike has NO EXCUSES!

Tyson was smaller than Joe Frazier

Joe Frazier had good head movement too and look what it got him....KNOCKED THE FUNK OUT....twice

I find it comical that you ALWAYS try to compare Frazier to Tyson,

#1 Frazier was slow and plodding with limited handspeed

#2 Frazier Bobbed and weaved which played into Foremans bludgeoning upper cut style, Tyson had superb head movement and was side to side like a windshield wiper

#3 Tyson was a combination concussive puncher and had the ability in his prime to put 4-5 combos together and had terrific footwork and could close the distance as good as most welterweights cause of his coordination and athleticism... Frazier was as graceful as a Hippo and lacked even the smidge of the footwork Tyson had.

I will say this, unless this fight takes place PRE-PRISON and got to be around the 9th round I dont think Tyson could hold it together mentally he might quit.

This is gonna sound like a farce but Tyson could absorb 10 fights worth of punishment in the 1st 7 rounds and still stand and fight with all the heart in the world, but around 9-10th round unless he KO's George Mike would pack it in

Tyson Tko by round 6

Have you been exposed as someone who hasn't any knowledge before 1987.
Poor form. Have you ever seen Frazier fight? No you haven't is the answer.

Absolute nonsense of a post. Tyson can't KO Tucker or Bonecrusher in his prime but somehow manages to stop Foreman in 6! Sort your act out cos it's a joke.

Agreed with some of that but i disagree with Tyson not being able to ko Bonecrusher we all know Bonecrusher didn't wana fight and held constantly hard to knock out a pretty tough guy like Bonecrusher if he isn't willing to fight remember it takes 2 to fight.

Agreed Ice, just thought the previous prediction of Tyson Ko 6 over George was abit hopeful. No slant on Tyson or Bonecrusher intended.
