How do you see the fight going if Tyson had fought Withersooon in late 1989 a couple of months after Tyson destroyed Carl Williams ?

Tyson would swarm all over Witherspoon with body punches and combinations, then he could either knocked him out in 7 or 8 rounds, which would be "terrible" for "Terrible" Tim Witherspoon or earn a decision if Witherspoon hold and fight for survival from Tyson's heavy bombs.

Witherspoon after 1986, is not the same fighter who could have possibly beat Mike. He loses on 9th round TKO after a couple of knockdowns.
