Who beats Mike Tyson?

[X]

"Smith and Tucker gave it a go"? Seriously mate??

I watched both those 'fights' live, and I've watched them since.

Neither Tucker nor Bonecrusher genuinely turned up to win that fight. Tyson intimidated them both before the bell even rang and they just wanted to survive. Neither guy had a game plan beyond using their height to frustrate and grab Tyson on the way in.

Bonecrusher embarrassed himself by blatantly refusing to let go of Tyson as early as the second round. Both were shut out losses!

p4pking is right Tucker hurt his hand when he landed that uppercut against Tyson in the first round. Tony did give it a try for the early rounds after that he took a beating.

James clutched his way through the fight and only tried in the last round when he landed that big right hand.

Pinklon Thomas was the one I considered boxer who tried his best and took a brutal beating in the first round but still came back to survive until mid rounds before being brutally stopped.

Tucker also showed how to force Tyson back in the 15 round, even at the state he was trying.

Tuckers fight prior to that one was a KO of Buster Douglas, fancy that

Fair enough, I havent watched either in so long. Just remember both at least being there and landing a thing or two in the closing minutes. Considering how much worse tyson was against Douglas, i stand by saying they would have had a better chance than other opponents just for that fact.

I disagree with X regarding Tucker. I recall Tucker shaking his head when Tyson would run in with a flurry, indicating he wasn't hurt .

When he was forcing Tyson back in the 15th round, was left thinking why he didn't do that earlier.

Tyson never fought 15 rounds with any fighter, it was 12 with Tucker.

Tyson did have a 15 round fight scheduled with Biggs but he was brutally destroyed in 6 or 7 rounds. Distinctly remember seeing Oprah Winfrey in the crowd looking horrified as Tyson knocked down Biggs. Tyson infamously said that "Biggs was screaming like a girl" when he was getting hit.

Indeed, for some reason It stuck in my head as 15, even to the point I rewatched it last weekend and thought they'd cut the last 3 rounds out.

Stand corrected

This may be the reason 15 rounds stuck in my head all that time for the Tyson vs Tucker Fight.

It was originally scheduled to be 15 rounds, but last last minute all three governing bodies went for 12 rounds.
