Ali was in his late 30's, not his late 50's.

Ali was shot to pieces but nowhere near as much as Tyson was last night. I suspect Ali would win by KO inside of five rounds.

C'mon how can you match a 60 year old man against a one about 20 years younger.

Why do people not understand age differences in athletic pursuits anymore?
38 compared to 58 isn't a reasonable gap for anyone to bridge. Obviously 27-58 is even less so, but addresing the subject of the thread here.
Senior citizens can't win competitive boxing matches against young(ish) men. Apparently needing to say this. What a time to be alive.
You could have said Holmes Ali vs. McBride Tyson, that's at least not an absurd question.

Ali from sheer toughness and being younger despite the early parkinson showing.

Ali didn't go down and didn't look that tired in the later round from the holmes fight he just had no reflex and muscle coordination.

Tyson on the other hand being 58 couldn't go 3 minutes rounds at all.
