Iron Mike's best weapon was psychological. But "the baddest man on the planet" would not have beaten "the Greatest" in his prime. No way.

A better match of styles would be Joe Frazier & Tyson. And I'd take Frazier in that one.

styles make matchps
Tyson over Ali
but, Foreman over Tyson (ex: what he did to frazier)
tyson and frazier very similar styles but, Mike is better

Foreman is always out the equation...

I dont get the Tyson thing. The guy knocked out a ton of tomato cans. Ali beat some of the best fighters ever in the Heavyweight division. If Tyson thought fighting Holyfield was frustrating than He would have been a complete mess by the endo of round 1 with Ali. Tysons greatest thing was that he had people beat before they hit the ring with him that would not have worked in this case. Tyson would look like a 230 pound meatloaf by the 8th round in this fight.

no chance tyson knocks out Ali in 3 rounds or less, so Ali wins every time.
