Predictions for if Haye had fought a Prime Tyson

[brocktonblockbust]

Pre-prison prime Tyson........hmmm, I hated him frm 1986-1996, but in hindsight, I gotta ad-fucking-mit, NOT 1 COCKSUCKER COULD BEAT HIM IN HISPRIME, HE EVEN KO'D DOUGLAS IN THE 8TH ROUND.

Post-prison, he could still lick Haye, but it would take atleast 7 rounds.

Haye wouldn't even have won the pre fight battle cause one glare from Mike and David would have shit his pants, Tyson by TKO1 ala Bruce Seldon, then we'd hear Haye pull a Mike Tyson and say "I broke my back" after the fight

....Ali, Foreman, Louis, Lewis, Holyfield, and probably a few more people would beat a prime Tyson.

....As for this match up certainly Tyson would be beaten in about 5 and that's IF the WBA title holder chooses to carry him

Haye would have to be led to the ring blindfolded and wearing a diaper or else he'd faint and soil himself and the ring.

The fight itself? Last about half a round.

remember haye is current and tyson is a legend, a fighter who i bet if you asked the majority of people for 5 fighters they would bring back in their prime tyson would figure highly

Haye is also in general disliked and tyson (now at least) is looked back on with very fond memories

all these things would play a part in peoples opinions

my opinion is that tyson at his best (sometime around when he was winning the belts and his first few defences) was awesome, as good as any hw at any time and i am sure that tyson would beat haye at his best

any other tyson it would be a much closer fight and there a few points in tysons carear where haye would have won the fight

Well. Tyson gets out of prison for Rape and goes right back in for manslaughter. Or a scenario where he becomes a repeat offender on first charge is not totally out of the question either

LOL! There is really something wrong with that

Tyson wins an early KO. The 2 men who beat a prime Tyson, Douglas and Holyfield, both took some good shots off Mike due to his very good speed. I'm not sure Haye could take 1 good shot from Tyson and you have to say he would land on Haye because of the handspeed he had. Tyson isn't the iron chinned fighting machine some make him out to be but he certainly had a better chin than Haye and though Haye certainly has the power and speed to KO Tyson I just don't see it personally.

As much as I have to say Tyson wasn't as great as his reputation, he destroys the whole HW division today. He wasn't slow, robotic or chinny as hell, so he already has at least one thing on all 3 belt holders today.
