Who ya got FAN!? It's a regular ole street fight, using only their bodies as weapons. It's the man who achieved peak physical condition, vs the man who may be the greatest heavyweight boxer of all times. Of course, we here at FAN are a smart and rational group. So we all shall be voting for Tyson.

I think Tyson would beat the shit out of him all day. Lee would get some good licks in and slow him down, but in the long run Tyson held the power and a good amount of speed. I think a good portion of the current UFC roster would end Lee as well, so what do I know.

Bruce Lee easily. Even in his prime, Tyson fought mostly past THEIR prime fighters or outright tomato cans. Had he fought someone skilled like an Evander Holyfield earlier; his mystique likely woulda come crashing down faster than it did in Tokyo vs Buster.
Bruce would of course have to evade Mikes initial onslaught; but having never needed to go the distance since winning the title, Mike would be gassed pretty quickly; and Lee would take him down.

Bruce is the more-rounded fighter, so he would be my pick.

Lee would probably destroy Tyson. Tyson had tiny T-Rex arms, and probably wouldn't be able to catch Lee, would just get kicked in the head a bunch. But if he did catch Bruce, well, he'd eat him alive (Probably literally and figuratively.)

I'd more interested in knowing what an Ali (in his prime) vs Tyson (in his) fight would have been like.
I think Bruce would have kicked Tyson's ass. One good shot to the knee and Tyson's down and then he could kick his head a few times at his leisure. If Tyson got Bruce in his grip though, that would probably be a much different story.

No shots below the waist and no ear biting, if Tyson is going to box then Lee isn't allowed to go after his legs.
Lee could win easily if he eludes Tyson's reach, speed is his advantage. If Lee tried to go blow for blow with Tyson he'd go down like a sack of rice.

In a streetfight, Burce easily takes it. Under the traditional boxing rules, Tyson would eat him alive.

Wait what! Tyson was a monster in his prime. He outweighs Bruce by about 80 pounds. Tyson was knocking out fools who knew how to take a punch to the face. Tyson is not some slow behemoth, he had a crazy fast step in.1 hit is all Tyson needs. This man was breaking peoples hands and they had gloves on.

I'd imagine whoever got the first shot in would be the winner.

Bruce Lee could set his leg on fire and turn into a dragon. I don't see how this is a contest.

Tyson may be fast for a guy his size and strength, and more powerful than Lee, but Lee's faster, smarter, is much more athletically fit which means he won't gas out as quickly as Tyson, and has an endurance for pain. He'd evade Tyson's punches and strike him down little by little until he kicks his f***ing head off. Sorry Ghidorah, but you were the one who made it a street fight. If it makes you feel any better, Tyson would easily win under boxing rules.

Tyson was unnaturally fast for his size, which is what made him such a thread. And I think a boxer might have a little endurance for pain too. Tyson would simply absorb a blow *as he always did* and drop him. This would not be a close fight.

Tyson is not some slow behemoth, he had a crazy fast step in.1 hit is all Tyson needs. This man was breaking peoples hands and they had gloves on. I followed Tyson's career as much as the next boxing fan. The dude was a freak of nature and he was fast for a undersized heavyweight, but not insanely fast were he could keep up with a middleweight or something. Also Tyson didn't have a good chin, and one kick from Bruce (who's kicks are insanely powerful and faster than any Mayweather punch) would've have KO'd Tyson before any opportunity would've presented itself. Kicks give you a better reach than any punch would and despite popular belief Bruce also did know how to grapple as well.
