Tyson, 55, who made his return against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, has had his own thoughts on how he would fare against the best heavyweight fighters.

MIKE TYSON vs TYSON FURY


Mike Tyson believes that he would have defeated heavyweight stars Deontay Wilder, Fury and Anthony Joshua in prime.

Tyson believes Fury would be his number in the ring during his prime.

Wilder was defeated by Fury at 6ft 9ins in Las Vegas, 2021, to win the WBC and The Ring magazine belts.

He kept them going with a win at home over Dillian Whyte earlier in the year.

Tyson was a long-time fan of Fury's before his rise to the top. He watched Wilder's controversial draw.

Tyson claimed that he hoped for Tyson Fury in the first fight. He was named after him, so I pulled for him.

"He surprised many people by getting up. He proved he's tough by getting up to win the final round.

"I thought it was over. Then he got up, and it was Rocky. He then fought back.

"It was incredible, it made me a friend. It takes courage and belief.

Tyson, like AJ, said he would beat his nameake if he were in his prime, but admitted it would be difficult.

"Listen, if someone asks me if it was 20 years ago, then no, there's not any doubt.

"They are really good fighters, and I respect all their skills. It would have been difficult to fight them.

MIKE TYSON vs ANTHONY JOSHUA

Mike Tyson believes he would beat Joshua in his prime but admits that he is a beautiful boxer.

Oleksandr Usyk stunned AJ, the former WBA, IBF and WBO champions, and he lost his belts in 2021.

Tyson said: "Hey! I really like you. Do you know who he is? He is a breath of fresh, clean air.

"He looks really clean. He's a clean fighter. He's a good puncher.

"You only wish him the best.

"I don't know. My ego tells me that 'nobody would beat' you, but when you look at him, you see that he is beautiful.

He just looks like a fighter. He seems like he was meant to do the things he does best. He will get more experience, but he is still learning.

Tyson, despite being quite tight-lipped about the occasion - while speaking to his Hotboxin' podcast -- had previously stated that he would easily defeat Joshua.

Tyson answered "Yes" when Tyson was asked if he would beat Fury or AJ. If you ask Tyson if he was twenty years old, then the answer is yes.

"They are really good fighters, and I respect all their skills. It would have been difficult to fight them.

MIKE TYSON vs DEONTAY WILDDER


Mike Tyson believes that he would have defeated heavyweight stars Deontay Wilder, Fury and Anthony Joshua in prime.

Tyson is certain that Wilder would be the one he beats in his prime.

Wilder may have lost to Fury in their trio, but he's back on boxing after rumours that he was about ready to quit.

The Bronze Bomber claimed that Tyson would be defeated by his hard-hitting style.

Wilder stated: "Me against Tyson in ‘86, I’d kick the hell outta this guy."

"Listen, it's real. People always look at the old school, but I don't think there is any school that I wouldn't be No1 in the world.

Tyson replied to Fury's comments, being typical diplomatic and saying, "I don’t know [if I’d beat him]."

"I love that he thinks this, because that's how I would think.

"He is supposed to think like that, he's the heavyweight champion in the world and that's something very unique."

Jeff Fenech, Tyson's former trainer was certain who would win.

Fenech stated that boxing is not the same as it was a few years ago. I can guarantee Wilder would be knocked out if Mike Tyson had trained for six weeks.

"He would hit them. Tyson Fury would knock these guys out if he was a good fighter but not a big puncher.

They are not at the same level today. Mike is not on the same level today. I think he could beat these guys if he trained.

"Fury has these other skills but Deontay wilder has a punch and none of them else. It's over if you punch him.

"And Mike, don't miss."
