Tyson's power vs Ali's speed (float like a butterfly...)

According to the link, Ali would win by the skin of Tyson's gold tooth

I don’t really, not since MMA became a thing.

I miss early prime Tyson back when he'd throw ridiculous combinations instead of trying to end every fight with one punch. Really think Floyd killed boxing when he refused to fight Pacquiao until Manny was old and washed up. There was so much excitement for that matchup but Floyd kept delaying and delaying until everyone was sick of it and no gave a crap anymore.

Here is Tyson early (1985) in his career against Mark Young, taking a dive at 3:15 in the first round. The punch missed but the opponent hit the canvas. As the announcer says a little later "a breeze, a little phantom, he's gone"

I'm still sane enough to not play stupid "what if" games like this.

I had this discussion with a black guy a few years ago. He was adamant that Ali would win. I wasn't so sure. Of course, we're talking about both at their prime, a hypothetical of course.

I am not sure if "rope-a-dope" would work well against Tyson.

I saved time by never liking it to start with.
