Mike Tyson Pre-Rooney was far and wide above Ray Mercer sure.. but after that, there is no comparison.. Tyson became a bum in boxing.. losing to Danny Williams by KO.. losing to Kevin McBride by TKO.. two fighters Ray Mercer would of floored..
Ray Mercer gave Evander fits, gave Lennox Lewis fits.. he wasnt a chump by any means..
you cant take the part of Tyson' career that was legendary, and was what made him one of the greats of all-time and apply it to today.. he is so far from that boxer it isnt even funny..
Kimbo would beat him.. in MMA especially.. just for the simple fact that Tyson is out of shape, has no heart, and cannot compete anymore.. hes so far gone from what he use to be.. and will never even come close to that ever again.. hes 41 years old, just got out of legal trouble.. how can you expect this guy to compete with someone who is a professional athlete, a helluva lot younger, tons more MMA trained.. in much much better shape? I mean.. Tyson is the one coming off the streets at this point, cuz he is no longer an athlete.. hes a normal person.. in an out of shaped body.. who couldnt be more of a shell of his former self.. you cannot just take a guy who hasnt competed, is completely done and say "Ohh well he use to be great so he'd beat this guy!" he isnt that person anymore.. end of story.
