Fedor was far too slow in his prime to have beaten any top botch boxer. That's why he was in the sport he was in. In Russia you don't get to pick your sport. If you show promise in a particular sport when you are young, the state puts you in a sports academy and trains you for that sport. If Fedor had heavyweight championship boxing potential, he would have been a boxer.On that night Douglas would have beat Fedor. Douglas was not a chump junior, the average man would have got destroyed by Douglass. Fedor was not trained to go 12 rounds. Ever. And Tyson took blows for 8-9 rounds before he got knocked out by Douglass. I have seen Fedors fights in his prime. He was far too slow to beat Tyson.westwall
Iron Mike would lose, but it would be a hell of a fight.
Are you seriously trying to say that prime Fedor would beat prime Mike Tyson ?
Prime Tyson hits anybody with 4 oz gloves on they would never wake up again.
Yes, that's exactly what I am saying. Fedor has a chin like no one Mike ever fought. Mike lost to Buster Douglas for gosh sakes. And that was in his near prime.
That is laughable. I actually won a couple of thousand dollars on that bout because I could see Tyson not respecting Douglas and taking the fight for granted.
Yes, Tyson was outmatched by Douglas, and Douglas was no doubt at his absolute best in that fight, but he would have been demolished by Fedor.
