yeah, I was leaning towards it being an asset. tons of torque in those punches. his upper cuts were probably the most effective use I've seen of that punch by any fighter that I can remember.

Dude, I've said it a buncha times, and I'll continue to spew it....Buster Douglas fought his ass off vs. Tyson. Tyson did not beat Tyson...Douglas beat Tyson. He did it because of intangibles, mostly attributed to losing his mama around that time (can't imagine). ;( Buster Douglas is a good boxer...he proved that to me in that Tyson vs. Douglas match.

Iron mike would not even be able to land a punch. He was an over rated punk that made his name knocking out has beens.

You think it would be a good idead to go ground game against a guy who is 80 pounds bigger than you. If Tyson ever gets that close long enough to actually go to the ground its game over. I am a believer in Lees mystical abilities too, but somewhere down the line you gotta face reality. Tysons punches could not be blocked or absorbed by Lee. Lee could win by snapping tysons knee, but thats it. |

A boxing match would give tyson more of a chance but I doubt he would even land a punch on him. MMA- once again Lee's kicks were some of the most powerful and fast on record- he could launch a guy 6 feet back. I don't think tyson knows shit about the ground game either. All the Bruce haters on this thread need to go back and watch video of his early years-there are some great films out there. BTW Bruce never lost a fight-Ever-most were over in less than a minute-and we are talking against hardcore street thugs or world champion fighters. |

Both my boys take karate. You've now wasted yrs on an argument that really is no argument at all. Bruce Lee in his prime would kick Tysons ass in mere minutes. I should say that is when he gets Tyson into some tapping out hold. And do not laugh when my sons practice various holds on me you tap out or you break or sleep..Tyson with no brain may decide to break or sleep. But break or sleep he would. Whether its an elbow,fingers,knees..size has nothing to do with it just technique. If its straight up swinging and kicking it might take 5 to 10 minutes to rattle Tyson because he literally doesn't have a ****ing brain inside that dense skull. this side of an aluminum baseball bat..it would take time but in the end stop wasting your time LEE all the way theres no argument here. I'm willing to bet a number of the masters of my sons gym unless taken by complete surprise by a Tyson haymaker could widdle him down. Especially if they got him in a hold. Any of you who attends a respectable karate gym(licensed,registered) not the one down at the corner with thugs standing outside know what I say is true. Luckily for my kids they attend a top notch non belt factory gym. Both my boys will be testing for their black belts in Boston late summer and I'll be one nervous father. In Tang soo do you can only test once a yr for your black belt and its an 8 hour test. Sorry I snuck a little dad bragging in there ![]() |

All things being equal, bet on the bigger guy. Of course, all things aren't equal here. Bruce Lee was much faster and very skilled. He could put a ton of energy behind a punch or kick.
But Mike Tyson wasn't just some big dude. He was a professional fighter who could take some serious hits and deliver a devastating knockout punch. AND he wasn't just a little bigger, he was a lot bigger. The ground game is a non-starter for Lee in this fight. You don't try to take a guy to the ground that outweighs and out-muscles you by that much. So he tries to stick and move. It might work, but again, Tyson took big punches for a living. And if Tyson gets a hold of him, I think it's over. |
