David Lemieux = Future MW Champ and P4P King
Jerry Cooney was old, slow, and not up for the task.
Here's Mike against a guy who beat the hell out of Big George for 12 rounds!

And Foreman did better vs Holyfield than Tyson did....point?
Tyson was just like Ali - he was never the same after the Muslims got em hahah

I think the calm cool collected mental game of Foreman would be a massive benefit to Tysons shaky mental make up. Style wise, size and that mauling push off cross arm strength would put Tyson on his heels and keep him lunching for hooks and then falling in. Foreman was not just dangerous for 'natural' power but he delivered axe handle type punches, top of the head. Tyson was patch work coming out of prison and very carefully steered by King. Foreman was calling him out at every chance, naturally, but they had no desire..or really need..to touch Big George.
Fucking Buster Douglas beat the shit out Tyson so anything is possible really so i might go with Foreman. Tyson a shell love hearing that he beat the shit out of everyone on the comeback before Holyfeild. Hell Holyfeild was consider shot to shit and had a fucking hart attack and was older. Wtf is Tyson excuse i saw the opening rounds he went at Holyfeild he landed hard blows did not do shit. Foreman Chin was a lot like Holyfeild which would be a problem for Tyson more than anything his best win Larry and Spinks Larry being the far better win.
Holyfield "He (Foreman) hit me harder than any fighter. Even though he didn't knock me down, but with one shot I thought he knocked all my teeth out."
Meaning that Foreman hit Evander harder than Tyson, harder than Bowe, and harder than Lennox Lewis. I'm sure none of those guys when they land flush hit softly, but for Evander to say that it has an impact at least in my view of it.
Granted styles make fights and in this case you've got Foreman who never backed up and Tyson who never backed up, both are big time power punchers, ALL-TIME power punchers, but neither in their primes, 1 very old and looking to prove himself, 1 veteran looking to regain his place.....was Tyson dedicated enough to beat Foreman? I don't think so, I also think Foreman's aura would melt Tyson's will....that said if Tyson scored a quick knockdown who knows what would happen after that?
Prime vs Prime I think Foreman again is too big, too powerful, and he turns and spins Tyson the way he did to the then undefeated undisputed champion Joe Frazier and just bombs him out...that clubbing overhand right wouldn't sit well with Tyson or his defense
