Had Danny williams victory over Francis happend a few months earliar Tyson could have fought british champ Danny around 2001... what would the result have been ? Francis was probably at his peak at this time ..but lets face it... was never a particularly good hw

Tyson would've beaten the shit out of him the same as he did Francis

Hard to imagine any other result at that point than an early Tyson KO victory.

Yeah, Tyson was a bit better then and had more stamina, which is important because Vitali had to beat on Williams for several rounds to stop him, so you figure Williams could have taken Tyson some rounds even back then. Plus he got injured against Williams, which likely wouldn't have happened in 2001.

Tyson would have won in 5 or 6 rounds; Danny has always been tough and would have done a few rounds against Tyson in 2001
