Want it to be Tyson 88 as that was the last time I actually enjoyed a heavy weight match! But just feel the slow methodical pace of Lewis would force Tyson into the same due to the pure size difference

Lewis at his best is better than Tyson this best

So Lewis

The Lewis at best got K'O by average boxers like Rahman and Oliver McCall. Tyson prior to prison would have taken these 2 out within 2-3 rounds.

Is that a trick question?

It would seem you clearly have no idea who he is if you think Tyson takes him out in 2-3 rounds.

Oliver McCall had a decent career during the 90s but I stand by what I said that the pre prison Tyson would have taken him down within 3 rounds.

Tyson.

An 88 year old would smash a 97 year old however big they are.

The most deluded comment I read on here. Oliver McCall has arguably the best chin in heavyweight history. No one KOs him. Tyson in fact used McCall for sparring because he could take his power.

Exactly.

Tyson would have gone for an early knockout although Lewis would have used his big jab and intelligence to keep Tyson at bay for those early rounds.

Then as the fight progressed Lewis would have started to get the upped hand. Probably would go to points with a Lewis victory.

I think it would have been similar to the Lewis vs David Tua fight which wasnt a great fight at all due to Lewis being ultra-cautious.
