Mike Tyson would have been a boxing and UFC HW champ.... at the same time

[Dia bando]

Tyson would hit them once it's all over, sted head bums.

It makes no sense financially, but I imagine that Tyson's pride would force him into it.

Pride does not mean he wants to be beaten by someone lying on the floor and swiping his legs. Forget that.

He'd learn to defend the takedown and keep it standing.

The good thing about Mike is his low centre of gravity, it'd be easier for him to get his hips low and stuff the shot.

Why bother learning another trade/skill, took years to perfect boxing and opponents would target his non-boxing abilities to beat him. It is a headache he would not need or be covered on his insurance.

Never to late to learn a new skill.

Mike's such a warrior that he'd get sick of people constantly saying that the UFC champ would fuck him up. Mike wanted to be the god of war on earth, and he'd have to beat the UFC champ in MMA to be that.

Wlad doesn't get pestered with it because people don't really give a fuck about him in North America, but with a popular champ like Mike everyone would demand the fight.

Wouldn't take Mike too long, he's a great athlete already so he'd just need to go to a A-level camp, learn to check leg kicks, learns to stuff the takedown and learn some submission defence and scrambles/sweeps to get back to his feet. Then he could lay some motherfuckers out.

Guys would be so afraid of his power and explosiveness that they'd telegraph their shot and shoot from far out, and he could catch them with an uppercut on the way in.

[Beanflicker]

Can't even imagine Mike hitting guys with those baby MMA gloves. He'd be straight up ending careers.

Broken cheek bones, noses, jaws, orbital bones, ahhh man! Mike was the best.

Mike would break his hands. I know I sound like his manager but the risks are too huge.

Yeah the hand thing is a big concern too. I'd say his managers and promoters would be begging him, but he was such a megalomaniac alpha male back then that I'd say he would have told them to fuck off and done it anyway.

We're talking about a guy who offered a zoo worker money to let him go into the gorilla cage and fight a silverback. He's borderline retarded.

Tyson was not that mad, he was smart.

Mike Tyson was in Tokyo preparing for fight with Tubbs and he was in with a sumo wrestler and backed off when they were starting to fight.

Agreed!

He's smart... not like everyone says... like, dumb. He's smart!!

[Master]

I'm funny looking how, I mean, funny looking like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny looking, ...
