Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Could Coop outbox Tyson, then maybe club him with a finisher or would it be another old fashioned Tyson knockout?

Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Tyson would wreck him
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Tyson would run through Cooper. Sir Henry was a stylistic gift for Tyson, he was much slower than Mike and too opened for him. Tyson by the stoppage in about 3-5 rounds.
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Tyson KO 3
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Tyson KO 1
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Tyson early. Maybe 2 or 3 rounds. He had too much skill speed and power for Henry to handle. Henry would be bloodied and annihilated.
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Not a good fight for Henry in any shape or form.......
.....unless Mike was too cocky/casual and he literally walked straight onto a colossal left hook early on. Or maybe a badly demotivated Tyson - hating the Kings and not hitting the gym - gets himself in some bother.
Henry was physically tough, disciplined, proud and had that bingo shot - also powerful for a man of his size - but Tyson is too strong, hits on another scale and his speed across the ring would have been a problem for Henry.
I can see Henry giving it a go, trying to get something on Tyson first - he was never lacking in cojones - but either it is a clean Tyson KO as Henry attempts this or the Londoner gets cut very badly and the fight gets stopped.

Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Feels a bit harsh fella....especially the crippled for life bit.Cooper might wind up getting killed in under 25 seconds.If not crippled for life.
Cooper would lose this and get stopped (no doubt) but he knew how to look after himself in the ring and was a capable pro and not a tomato can straight out of Palookaville.
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
I can't put forward a case for Cooper to make it past three rounds I'm afraid,

Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Which Tyson is this? If this is prime 87-90 Tyson he can indeed finish it earlier in the first 3 or 4 rounds. If it's post-prime, then it will be a close fight, with Tyson stopping him late or winning via UD.
Re: Sir Henry Cooper vs. Mike Tyson
Why would you do that to poor Henry?
Tyson would slaughter him.
KO within 4 rounds no doubt. Possibly 1. And if goes past 1 round Cooper is likely a bloody mess.
