I would favor Ali over Tyson as a BOXER because he was 100 times better than Tyson and ANYONE who thinks Tyson would have beaten Ali needs to see how Sonny Liston and Floyd Patterson did vs him because Tyson was a mesh of those fighters....Cus D'Mato wanted Floyd Patterson with a Sonny Liston attitude and that was Mike Tyson, so his style was all wrong to beat Ali.....not saying he wouldn't last longer but in lasting longer he would probably look worse as the fight wore on, and yes he would have been KO'd
Ray Robinson EARNED his respect, Floyd expects to be handed respect.....he's fought some good fighters and he's made fighters look silly but he is NOWHERE and I repeat NOWHERE near as accomplished as Ray Robinson was.....and anyone who argues with that needs to just look at his record. Yeah Ray lost a few times, even in his prime HOWEVER he did lose because he took chances with his career and usually he came out on top.
Also Floyd's career isn't over yet so he can still prove stuff OR have stuff proven about him...he's still great but nowhere near as good as Robinson
