I am with D-Money.

Thing is, even if others were as powerful (not that I agree), Tyson was a compact swinging machine. He delivered blows much faster, plus he was aggressive.

My opinion, it would not be a long fight either way. Tyson could not take a punch well, seeing he didn't take many, so if Ali won, it would be before 5 rounds.

On the other hand, Tyson would likely knock Ali out before round 3. I don't care how much Ali can dodge punches, Tyson's punch array was devestating and at some points, unfair to the competition.

I have said it before, Tyson changed the way our generation watched boxing. Now, if a fight goes past 5 rounds, I am bored.
