Mike Tyson is out of shape and a shot fighter. I would guarantee Mike would wipe the floor with Tyson Fury.

A young Mike obviously would.

Now? Fury would lay out Mike within seconds.

Tyson Fury is 6'9 and Mike Tyson is 5'10.

Mike Tyson would have had alot of problems facing a guy of Fury's size and skill.

Fury has no skill and a glass jaw...If tyson landed one uppercut it is good night. The problem is Tyson would have difficulty hitting the target. Fury is tall...thats his "skill"

Any decent pro would knock him out if they could hit the target.

6' 9" is still 6' 9". Tyson had problems with guys 5" shorter. These giants may not be the most technically sound fighters, but they're trouble anyway you cut it.

X2

A big guy who's reasonably quick (like Fury) isn't an easy fight for anyone. I'd take Mike to win by KO, but it won't be as straightforward as people think.
Most of those guys you see Mike Tyson sparking out in under one round in his highlight reels were bums who spent a lot their careers on the canvas.

I would take out both of them with a swift kick in the head and..................... ........................ ........................ an ak-47 (this would be first actually).

Btw. Fury kissed his hand. Wow.

I love how people just brush off the effect of such a massive size advantage in a fight.

Guys like Vitali and Tyson Fury didn't exist back in the 70's and 80's.

Fury fights like Cruz....Run, run, run, hopefully land a few 'pitty pat' punches and win the round. Slaps like a girl.

This. No real power in his punches. Slaps rather than punches.
He has also been put on his ass a few times

He looks like bamby on ice but he beat the best heavy of a decade with ease over 12 rounds, he will beat wilder, would be 50/50 with Haye, Joshua will beat them all in the next yr or two...

Fury wouldn't fight like that against a 5'10" opponent

Pretty wild to consider that Liston was 6'1" with an 84" reach.
