Maybe.

Ali is the type of fighter that gave Tyson fits. He was faster, in better shape and much smarter than Tyson. He would not have stood toe to toe in a slug fest.

That would have been a fight for the ages.

The photos I’ve seen look like Tyson was way bigger and much more defined. But he literally was burned out and washed up by the age of 24. I don’t think Clay even reached his prime until his late 20’s.

It would be one for the ages, no doubt. I honestly lost my love for boxing after watching the Ray Mancini vs Duk Koo Kim fight, in which Kim died. My friends and I used to gather for the fights and hoot and holler... but that fight left a sour taste.
