Conspiracy theorist.
I was fortunate to see both of these fighters in their prime, and everybody said that Mike Tyson would brutally beat Muhammad Ali. I was leaning that same direction, but I spent hours yesterday, analyzing both fighters, and one of the things that struck me with Muhammad Ali is his power. I underestimated it, and when he took out George Foreman via knockout, it made me realize he’s better than I even thought he was.
You go through a lot of years between fights, and you kind of lose a sense of how good people are in certain sports. But if you also watch Mike Tyson in his prime, I think he could beat Mohammed, because he had a understanding how to deal with tall and fast boxers. Mohammed was great at keeping his distance from pure power, and his defensive skills were the best I’ve ever seen and second place is not even close. However, Mike Tyson was like a power BULL in the ring and with Mike his punching power was so incredible. It only took one shot to knock out people on a consistent basis. One of the things that made Mike Tyson, so good was his understanding that going to the body lowers those gloves so he could catch his opponent off guard with his devastating left hook.
I would’ve loved to seen them to go at it. However, that will never happen obviously. in the meantime, I’m going to post two magnificent YouTube videos for everyone to enjoy. You can watch both fighters work their way up to the top and see how good they were in the prime.
Hypothetically, if these two great boxers faced each other in their prime, this is what I think would happen. If the fight went more than five rounds, Muhammad Ali would win on points, however Mike Tyson could easily knock out Muhammad Ali if he connected. I would just love to see that fight…They were two totally different fighters. I’d give the edge to Mohammed on points due to his ability to protect himself from powerful punchers like George Foreman. He knocked out George Foreman in his prime, and George was considered one of the most powerful punchers at the time. I would not be surprised. However, if Mike knocked out Muhammad Ali in the first round it would not surprise me the least bit. I just think Ali was just too fast in the early rounds. JMHO
Now getting back to this newly announced boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. It appears to me Mike Tyson might be taking this seriously and if he does, Jake Paul is going to be in a lot of trouble. Mike Tyson ain’t the same fighter. He was a couple years ago. He’s in the best shape he’s been in a long time and he doesn’t appear to lost any speed. I don’t think Jake Paul stands a chance because I’ve seen him fight, and, he better hope to God this is a hush-hush exhibition match, so neither one of them get hurt. However, if this is really serious, Jake Paul is in for a world of hurt.
The first video is Mike Tyson training. He looks absolutely fantastic and don’t underestimate you youngsters the strength of a well season 57-year-old man.
