Tyson vs ali both in primes in a 15 round boxing match, i say ali beats tyson all day long, to fast for him. even in 12 rounds ali wins, to any boxing fan this is a dream match and anyone this should be a dream match, i just think ali would have been to much for tyson longer reach, could take a punch and is faster with great combos

1960s Ali would beat Tyson after being knocked down and getting his head in the fight. Tyson would beat the 70s Ali by tremendous KO in the 3rd.

Tyson is a much faster version of Joe Frazier. He's a throw back to old fighters but no one ever had his speed. I think a prime Tyson was just as fast as Ali only shorter, crazier, and stupider. Mike instincts were perfect. In his prime no one could hit him he moved his head too much. He countered instinctively, and threw combos with vicious intent. He would have cleaned out the 1970s division IMO, until he went crazy.

Forman hit harder. He made many fighters that gave Ali the fight of his life look like cans. He lifted Joe Frazier up with a uppercut. That man wa a beast.

Sorry I have to say Tyson in his prime...Sure he wasn't as great of a technician as Ali and Ali had a great chin. But Early Tyson no ones Chin held up no ones and I don't think Ali would be any different. Holmes Dismantled Ali and I Don't think Holmes even has the KO power that Tyson did. That was a Once in a life time thing like Wilt the stilt or Jordan.

Holmes beat Ali at the end of Ali's career

if Ali can eat shots from Frazier and Foreman, he can eat shots from Tyson and still manage to outbox Tyson big time, plus Tyson's chin wasnt bad at all but wasnt the greatest
