Prime Mike Tyson
This should not even be a debate.
Prime Tyson would have been a stylistic nightmare for Usyk
Prime Tyson had
- Foot speed
- Hand speed
- Stamina
- Chin
- Knockout power in both hands
Those 5 things are an impossible list of qualities for Usyk to overcome.
To beat Mike Tyson, you had to pretty much had to kill him. You had to beat the shit outta of him, round after round. To beat Tyson. You have to be brave and stand and trade with him centre ring and not take a step back and test his heart and desire. Usyk doesn't fight like that.
But if Usyk did stand toe to toe with Prime Tyson ? He's dead. He would not have the power to hurt Tyson, nor would he have the power that Tyson would respect.
If Usyk got on his bike ? Even worse, Tyson's foot speed would catch him and kill him
Just show people this is prime Mike
And prime Tyson was (And a lotta people don't realise this and he doesn't get enough credit for this) a gym rat. Young Mike was a spartan, one of the most professional, hardest working heavyweight champs
We are talking prime Tyson, he could run a 5-minute mile, row 2000m in under 7 mins, he trained like a Triathlete.
You know what that means ? That means if Usyk was to get past 4 rounds tyson wouldn't gas like these modern day silverbacks do.
And that's the thing with Usyk, when he loses, it won't be a tactical chess match points loss, I think he'll loss very badly
Usyk is a modern day great, but an ATG ? I'm not sure
