    Tyson UD 10. George hurts him a couple of times but can't follow through, Mike jabs, clinches and generally outworks George to a decision. Tyson comes very close to stopping George at least once, in the 7th or 8th. Generally boring fight punctuated by bombs.

    Tyson wins because he had quick hook punches and a hook punch is a good punch to do. Also Foreman had a good chin style and big punch style too so he would also hit Tyson good and do a good fight

    Tyson easily

    The key thing is that big george was not really that good of a boxer, but for his time he was SO much bigger then everyone just clobbered them.

    Im pretty sure he couldnt clobber mike

    He could clobber anyone who was there to be hit enough. Mike would survive and win a decision but since he can't fight on the back foot and there's no way he's pushing George back consistently it's gonna be anything but easy.

    Tyson stops any version of the comebacking George. I dont care how durable George was in his comeback, he never faced a puncher like Tyson, and never got hit as much as Tyson would be hitting him, and at the speed Tyson would be hitting him. I laugh at those who think the comeback George coulda beaten a prime Tyson. Mike would have been WAAAAY too fast for George's old ass at that time. Tyson TKO 7.
