Mike Tyson was from a different world. The former Heavyweight champion was known for his ability to sweep his opponent as fast as he could. His ferocity, physicality, and his valor are something unmatched by any other professional boxer. Notably, Tyson stood out for his height and overall build when he used to box. The youngest Heavyweight champion ever had to face opponents who were much taller than him in size and as per Cheatsheet, ‘Kid Dynamite’ never felt that his height was disadvantageous. So, it is safe to say that ‘Iron Mike’ had a way around taller people. But what if his opponent was an NBA sensation?
An old poll involving Mike Tyson and LA Lakers forward Lebron James has resurfaced on the internet. This poll has made the fans go crazy. The poll demands the fans’ perspective on who they think will win if James were to step into the boxing ring against one of the best Heavyweights in the world. As unexpected as this matchup is, it is drawing strong reactions from the fans.

The poll was posted by @DovuSivuMMA and asked the fans who they think would win if James, with two years of boxing training, goes head to head with “prime” Mike Tyson. The picture shared is a shirtless collage of the two, displaying their ripped physique. Another comparison between Muhammad Ali and Tyson left the boxing world perplexed.
James, the top scorer in NBA history, is one of the best in the sport, as Tyson was during his boxing career. But, it is safe to say that when the NBA sensation steps foot inside the boxing ring against Tyson, it’s a slippery slope. And it’s something many fans are agreeing with .@fin59 is certain that this fight will end much faster than the Mayweather Jr -McGregor fight.
