Who Would Win in a Fight Between Bruce Lee and Mike Tyson?

[rico]

Alright Planeteers, I've been arguing on message boards with people about this off and on for a couple years now and I want to get CP's input on it. The question is this: Who would win in a fight between Bruce Lee and Mike Tyson in his prime? Let's hear it!

For all that people talk about Bruce Lee's speed, this is Mike Tyson at 15 (maybe a Q, don't curr):

Excellent.


Here's a MMA LHW(205) when he was healthy against a future HWT champ.
Imagine a 140lb version of Shogun. Yikes.

no, I'm saying don't underestimate someone because they are "smalL' . My roommate in Germany was 5'6'' but could bench and squat over #300 and DL over #400, and won state in wrestling. dude was no slouch.

He'd still get worked over by Aldo or McGregor.

mcgregor would let lee get in a bunch of leg shots to the head and body, but once lee went at a knee, he'd frenzy him in a corner and either dispatch him or play with him the next round

aldo doesn't have the finish

Tyson wouldn't be able to touch Lee, though. Lee is just so fast with his ninja speed that he would run in, kick Mike in the face, leg, and face again, and then get out before Tyson knew what happened. /dorks with neckbeards

This might be the most ridiculous 700+ thread on CP, ever, and that's saying a lot.

That 70% of CP voted Lee says a lot about CP.

It's worth noting that Bruce Lee wasn't wearing 10 ounce gloves when shooting his action movies. The difference between throwing a punch with gloves versus without is like swinging a bat with a donut on it versus one without.

Tyson was incredibly fast. Equally important is that he was accurate.

Larry Holmes said that Earnie Shavers punched harder but Tyson was more accurate.

He would have killed a 128 pound man. Killed him dead.
