    This version hasn’t been done tmk, most pick prime Tyson to beat comeback Ali, but how would comeback Tyson fare against comeback Ali? Would it make a difference? Best version of the comeback version of both.
    Who wins this matchup?

    Really? It’s one of the most talked about fantasy fights in boxing.

    Ali … he’ll get inside Tyson’s head way worse than he did Foreman.

    But as I’ve said repeatedly, Tyson on a given night was capable of beating anyone, so in a multfight series …

    We haven't seen Ali's prime; it will forever remain an enigma.

    Best heavyweight fantasy fight and most talked about SuperFight of all time.

    The Greatest vs. The Baddest...but which one was the Best?

    So ‘73-74 Ali vs. ‘95-96 Tyson. I’m picking Ali to weather Tyson’s early onslaught and beat the breaks off of him to a late stoppage

    What's Evander Holyfield have that '74 Ali didn't have?

    I was thinking more 1971 Ali, but as you like. That version showed in losing to Frazier a level of guts Tyson couldn’t dream of.
