    no because Tyson struggled against fighters with long reach, such as Lennox Lewis. Tyson has to get inside and fight you up close, but he has trouble getting around the long arms, and when he did they just had to wrap him up.

    It'd make a good fight.
    But i'd give Ali the odds due to hand and foot speed.

    I think Mike Tyson would win because he would eat half of Mohammed's head off with his bare teeth like the animal he is. Add coke to the scenerio since I just read today of his coke and DUI arrest and he may turn into a full blown canibal!
    Down rate me because I do not like him. I do think he would win even with Mo at his peak because he is out of control.

    No. Ali would have won.

    Tyson was a great puncher and could take down anyone with a single hit, but Ali had hand speed, ring craft, power, endurance, a greater reach, and most of all, the intelligence, to out box him.

    He would have held him at arms length and hit him with jabs and crosses, and covered up or smothered him when he was in close to prevent the hooks and uppercuts that Tyson was good at. Once he was tired he would have taken him out with a well placed shot.

    No one else was as intelligent as Ali in the ring, I believe that's what would swing the fight for him.

    I believe Ali would have won because he had the mental and physical abilities to do so. Tyson, on the other hand, has and continues to have a problem thinking clearly no matter how much physical strength he may have.
