A prime tyson vs a prime ali.?
Im sure tyson would smoke a prime frazier and etc. I wouldnt count a prime tyson out over anyone as much i like ali he gotta dance his toes off for three rounds.

.....Ali fought Sonny Liston and Floyd Patterson and George Foreman and had no trouble with any of them. So that's the style, attitude, quick hands, and punching power of Mike Tyson right there and Ali stopped them all.....easily

Im not saying ali wouldnt beat a prime tyson i just think perhaps another comparison would be suitable when comparing RJJ owning JC.
Tyson is short compared to the heavyweights he faced but he demolished all through speed, power and ridiculous head movement. (Perhaps alittle fear from the opposition as well?)
Tyson stands alone as an awesome machine that would compete in any era.

The point I'm trying to make is I respect Joe Calzaghe, he was a great fighter but RJJ was light years ahead of him. That is why I used the Ali-Tyson reference because as great as Tyson was he would never beat a Prime Ali.

So I was attempting to prove my point and be respectful at the same time.

I don't think that its a given that Ali beats a prime Tyson because he beat Liston or Foreman because Tyson fought nothing like either of them. I think the prime mid eighties Tyson beats both of those guys and believe me I was never a fan of Mike Tyson. Tyson had some of the best footwork of any hev I have ever seen for a crunching stalker and was extremely fast and compact with both hands along with Langford like power from either side. In addition I do not recall better head movement by a heavyweight in boxing history. Both Cooper and Frazier landed a hook that came from the parking lot and dropped him. As good a chin as Ali had, its simply not a given that he could withstand the onslaught.
