22 yr. old Mike Tyson would knock out Chuck in a stand up fight but take Mike Tyson to the ground and he is out of his element, which means game over. Tyson can take a hit, they call him Iron Mike for a reason. Liddell would have speed but almost ever other statistic would be Tysons.

Dude Mike Tyson's power was so great back then, even if Chuck had him on his back, Mike still hand's the power to Knock Liddell out from the ground...I've seen many fighter on their back able to land a solid punch or kick and knocked the guy on top out...
You people are talking about Liddell like he's a dominate fighter or something...He's not...He beat a scared Ortiz, a Old Randy Couture and a ***** in Jermey Horn....If he was to step in there against Rampage or anyone else of his Caliber he would go to sleep.
Liddell has a very poor boxing style...He keeps his had's shoulder height and he's wide open for a straight punch down the middle....He throws 2-3 punches and he's tired......Any MMA fighter that has a good Standup can get to Liddell...Belfort in his prime would have dominated him..

I'm not saying Liddell isn't fast, and I hate to make it seem like he'd stand NO chance at all (on his feet, I don't believe he would), but it should be noted that Tyson in his prime could throw extremely fast combinations for a heavyweight. He had the hand speed of some middleweights.
I believe it was back in April of 1987, during an open training session for his bout with Pinklon Thomas, Tyson worked the heavy bag using 4-punch combinations that landed in under a second. That's 4 heavy shots in less than a second. He was scary fast for a big man.
None of his bouts since Buster Douglas showcased that lightning fast speed he once had unfortunately. He also abandoned that elusive "peek-a-boo" style that made him so successful.

hmm right about the time he hooked up with Don King. Tyson probably could have been a legend among boxers to eclipse even Ali.. sadly Don King happened. King is a drain on society and should be dropped in the ocean. Except I do not think sharks eat thier own.. maybe he'll just drown

omg...................ok it's obvious you never did wrestling Ju Jitsu Judo or any form of grappling if you did you would know the difference between a college level wrestler against a guy who has no experience,My god do you know how hard it is to get a purple belt in Ju Jitsu??.Tyson would be taken down man handled and SUBMITTED to hell.

FEDOR WOULD BEAT TYSON IN HIS PRIME IN LESS THAN TWO MINUTES...NO DOUBT!!!!

That's the only thing i agree with you on.....And the Chuck out striking Tyson it's realy stupid to fight about that because it's obvious chuck wouldn't try and strike.

Well, if i was a gambling man and it was just another UFC fight, im 55-45 in favor of Chuck.
And tyson has a punchers chance IMO, so i dont know. Chuck wouldnt want to be pinned up against the fence with tyson raining down fists of iron
