great question! Tyson could floor any man or beast in his prime, but I think Ali would've been to cler for him...danced around him for a few rounds and frustrated him, then slowly wore him down, before finishing him in the 7th-8th round ;-)
Mike Tyson would probably have lit Ali up in his first match. Probably different results in the second match. Ali wouldnt be able to take the first 30 second barrage that mike would have thrown his way. No disrespect to Ali, he is one of the best. But there was a couple of year period where Mike was the most dominating fighter EVER. To say anything different only tells me that you never saw a Tyson fight.

You did not specify the weight, assuming heavyweight it is Rocky Marciano, undefeated world champion. Ali was good, but never forget Henry Cooper flattened him with a left hook, if Ali's cornerman had not slit his glove with a razor blade to gain time, Cooper would have probably been rightful world champ, because Ali was in no condition to go another round - Ali was a great fighter but this was the biggest injustice in boxing history.
