Lets end the Mike Tyson debate

[El Kabong]

Not the old George Foreman we are talking about, too fat and slow.

Yes and Iron Mike would have come straight to him....that was the main reason behind Foreman's success vs Moorer. MM stopped boxing and tried to "prove a point" vs Foreman and sadly for Michael the point ended up being how Foreman could still punch....and hard.

If you're thinking Tyson was just going to waltz in there and land a haymaker overhand right and that George would just allow that then you're sorely mistaken

I think Old George would do better against Tyson than Young George!

Old George was pretty smart in the ring, and with his thick-ass arms and high trunks he really utilized the crab defense better than almost anyone.

Moorer had a china chin.

Tyson never went straight at an opponent he move from side to side, had head movement and blistering combinations, the version that would have fought old Foreman was still good enough to do it and win.

How the funk can you make a case for Old Foreman beating Tyson through Moorer?

Moorer was knocked down about 3 million times during his career. Tyson was stopped after getting a savage beating.

Moorer also beat the crap out of Foreman for nearly every minute of the fight until he was one punched, Foreman wouldn't have held up to Tyson landing half as much. This thread is such a ruin though

Tyson went straight at Holyfield why would he fight Foreman differently?

Tyson was a 1 at a time puncher by the time Foreman came back.

I am sure this was Tyson before his jail sentence so he was still decent at that time.

Moorer was such an idiot!
