Who would win between these two...

Imagine both Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali in their primes. Someone invented a time machine and got them two to fight. Who would win?

As good as Ali was, I think Tyson in his prime was unbeatable.

I would have to go with ali.

Jace VK · 08-18-2006, 02:16 AM

Tyson.

Bandit · 08-18-2006, 07:10 PM

I know nothing about boxing.

I voted Tyson, simply because I love his voice.

N Kong · 08-18-2006, 08:44 PM

I'd go with Mike Tyson.

Ali definately. He handled Foreman, he can handle Tyson.

Maximum Spider · 12-16-2006, 04:01 PM

they both fight to the death, and they end up.... KOing each other. i dont care if this is not a choice

Ali had a much better career as a whole and was by far the more consistent of the two, hence him being the "Greatest of all Time." But when Tyson was in his prime, he absolutely could not be stopped. Period.

Ali. Hands down.

If you said Tyson, you need to go watch ESPN Classics and watch some of Ali's best fights because you have no concept of what it was like in a heavyweight division with top class talent. Ali kicked ass through his entire career, even though he missed his prime years for refusing to fight in Vietnam.

The only way Tyson would have a chance is if he could get a quick knockout. Ali has the height and reach on him (Tyson typically struggles against bigger opponents because they can keep him at a distance) , and Ali proved time after time that he could go the distance with heavy hitters (fraiser, foreman, etc). This doesn't even get into the head games Ali would pull on Tyson. Tyson fought at the decline of the heavyweight division and boxing in general, and as a result didn't get the competition. He fought chumps.
