He was Special but think If they could have fought each other in their primes I think Tyson would have won :y

Tyson wouldn't have got a glove on him. Ali would just have let him punch himself out and then knocked him over.

Easy.

No heavyweight moved like Tyson could move, in his prime no-one laid a glove on him and then could never stand his speed and power. sorry fellas but i disagree with ya :)

I say Ali. He fought beat harder hitters than Tyson (Foreman/Shavers) and unlike many of Tyson's opponents would not be scared. Remember what Buster Douglas and Holyfield did. Also remember Ali was unable to fight in what were his "prime years" also and was boxing at the highest level for longer than Tyson. I reckon a peak Larry Holmes would also have taken Tyson

I think you're right. Anyone who could beat Ivan Drago has to be the G.O.A.T.

Now the two contenders seem to be

1. Ali



2. Tyson



I think that ali was a great Boxer, in his time!!!

i do not think that a man like Ali could stand a chance in the ring with Tyson in his Prime, Tyson was a Beast, Brut Force and Strength for 10 was his Attribute.

Ali was like a Gezelle fast and lean, but he was in no way a "Taker" like Tyson.
One direct hit from Tyson, and Ali would start singing I´m a little tea pot.
