    Default 10 Dream Heavyweight Fights

    Assuming all these fighters are in their primes.

    Ali vs Tyson - Tyson stars strong , but is broken down later in the fight and is ko'd. Ali Ko 11

    Marciano vs Holyfield -This would be a war. Holyfield wins a close but decisive decision . Holyfield UD

    Holmes vs Louis - Finally Holmes would get more respect if he won this type of fight. Holmes UD

    Vitali vs Fraizer - Vitali would be too much for Fraizer- Vitali Ko 7

    Lewis vs Foreman- Foreman could Ko Lewis. But I really think Lewis wins a decision . Lewis UD

    Liston vs Wlad- If Liston catches Wlad , he ko's him , but I honestly think Wlad wins by ko. Wlad Ko 10

    Johnson vs Patterson -This would be a close fight, and most likely goes the distance. Johnson SD

    Bowe vs Dempsey- Bowe would simply be too big .But i think Dempsey would go the distance. BoweUD

    Roy Jones vs Haye- the Jones that fought Ruiz would outbox and outsmart Haye. Jones Jr UD

    Tua vs Arreola- Tua more durable than Arreola - Tua KO 10

    your thoughts ? And who do you think would win these fights?

    I agree with most of them. I would pick Foreman to KO Lewis and Louis will catch up to Holmes and take him out late on. Liston would be very dangerous for chinny Wlad and may even KO him. the man had a 84 inch reach some long arms and a solid jab, wouldn't put money on that one. Liston is judged too much on his fights with Ali.

    Hard one to pick for me, Tua is more durable, but maybe Arreola has a bit more in his repertoire.

    That is so true!

    Not much to disagree with on that list for me. Good match ups, could see some of them fights go the other way though which shows what good fights they could have been.

    More than capable of stopping Tyson, not a 1 shot KO but but could wear him down for a stoppage.

    I would've liked to have seen better match ups
    HOLMES V LEWIS winner Holmes
    LISTON V FRAZIER winner Frazier
    MARCIANO V PATTERSON winner Marciano
    FOREMAN V HOLMES winner Foreman
    JOHNSON V DEMPSEY winner Dempsey
    LOUIS V TYSON winner Louis

    Just my thoughts on it.

    Tyson is overrated. I wouldn't choose him for any of my dream fights.

    I haven't had an extremely good look on any of these. Not amazing matchups.

    Joe Frazier vs. Rocky Marciano
    Ali vs. Louis
    Lewis vs. Bowe
    Klitschko vs. Klitschko.
    Liston vs. Wlad would be really good. A prime Liston was a pure monster.
    Foreman vs. Marciano


    And how nobody put this one up, I don't know. It's the only fight I want to see Tyson in.

    Tyson vs. Foreman. Old Foreman or Young Foreman. Either version knocks him out cold.

    I think Tyson would beat Ali. Douglas, fighting the fight of his life against a less than best Tyson, had success with the jab, but mostly because of what he threw behind it. Tyson's whole game was based on drawing a jab, slipping it and countering with something hard, and he was very fast. Douglas maintained distance, made Tyson react to the jab, then countered with other punches. This made Tyson stand up and hesitate, and easier to hit with the jab. Ali's movement would play into Tyson's hands, let him get his forward motion rolling. He'd slip that jab and get to Ali.
    And Ali would be at a disadvantage in that event because of his poor punching technique. He had a good right hand, but there was no shoulder in his jab, and he dropped both hands when he threw uppercuts. He never in his career learned how to block a left hook. At his peak, Tyson was faster than Frazier, and a two handed puncher and he'd stop Ali.
    Ali's best chance to beat Tyson would be the Ali that fought Foreman. Frustrating Tyson and tying him up, potshotting him with right hands. Tyson didn't like to fight much inside and didn't know how to deal with a guy trying to wrap him up.

    Tyson didn't have the heart to last past round eight with a good fighter. Ali would last. Ali would frustrate him. His mobility is a sure issue for Tyson. Nobody Tyson ever fought was as much of a dancer as Ali was.
