Lesnar and probably pretty easily. Tyson might catch him with an uppercut but Brock is bigger, has length and is an expert grappler.

If anyone is suggesting that present day Mike Tyson has any chance against Brock Lesnar in a street fight, they're out to lunch. I get that Tyson is a legend but the fact remains that 15 years ago he was getting handily beaten by boxing journeymen. Carwin hits hard as hell. He couldn't ko Lesnar He might hit hard, but he's no Tyson. Nobody is. Point is, you said Brock can't take a punch. And that's clearly false. And saying "well the fight should have been stopped...." is a moot point in this discussion anyway because OP said a street fight, where stoppages are a non-issue presumably.

Brock would take him down faster than Mike could even think about throwing a punch.

I’m not convinced Brock would be able to just charge Tyson and take him down. I think of the Michael Spinks fight where he had his head at the level someone would would be at when going for a double leg and Tyson knocked him unconscious with an uppercut so fast that it’s hard to see on the live broadcast even when you know it’s coming (granted Spinks was already rubbery legged from an early knockdown - the first of Spinks entire career). It’s always hard to answer these questions because Boxers aren’t used to someone trying to tackle them when they’re trying to punch, but wrestlers aren’t used to their opponent being allowed to strike them in the head when they try for a takedown. If it were both in their prime, I think Tyson’s handspeed and power would be a huge threat every time Brock got close enough to do anything.

That is the key Brock has to get within range of Tysons punches unless he wants to try and throw kicks all day.

I doubt Brock would be dumb enough to just charge in, and it's not like he'd just grab the guy. Pick a spot, take him down and get in a position where he can't really use all his power.

I think people should start to realize that Boxing compared to MMA it is not a fight,it is basically a sport.
MMA is 100% more ready to a Street Fight than a Boxer.
In a FIGHT Brock has the superior training.period.

Street fight? Maybe if the streets are paved with gold.
Neither of these two men will so much as make a fist unless they’re paid at least six figures.

In their respective primes, Tyson is way too fast with too much power. A few shots would connect before Brock could do a takedown and then it's game over.
If we're talking now? Mike is 54 years old. Brock easily.

Tyson in his prime (that 4-5 year period). Lesnar any other time than that.
Lesnar entered the UFC when the heavyweight division was at its weakest. He beat a 45 year old light heavyweight for the Heavyweight title.
People like to bring up Tyson vs Ali, but statistically, Tyson was far more dominant. He was knocking out top tier talent in the first two rounds on a regular basis. Ali would still win, but not like that.

It depends which one signs the contract extension past Wrestlemania.

Tyson isn’t just a hard puncher, his combinations in his prime were insanely quick, his footwork was precise and he could get inside of much taller dudes. If he got the jump on just about anyone, they get knocked out. I think he’d obliterate Tyson Fury in one round if both were in the prime, but that isn’t the question. Also, if this is a pure street fight- Tyson is much crazier and would try to rip Brock’s face off.
Brock could probably win the fight unless Tyson just came at him too fast & Brock couldn’t get a takedown before taking a series of punches. Brock is ultimately trained in more ways to fight you, is incredibly athletic and probably could deduce what isn’t working in a fight a lot faster than Tyson.
Ultimately I vote Brock, but he’d be hurting afterward.

I think you'll find the correct answer is 'my cousin vinny when he's had 2 or 3 and hasn't thrown up already'

Grappled wins at least 9 out of 10 times. Hard to knock someone out when you're on your back

If Brock gets in on a double leg, Brock. If Tyson catches him coming in, Tyson.

This depends, does Tyson get to train in mma first? If it's Tyson with only boxing training, brock wins. If he trains and knows how grapplers work, he'd knock the shit out of brock.
