That's so fake. If it wasn't a commercial or seen the footage in a biography I would of believed it. Like some of the comments said that's some Forest Gump ping pong. Surely he could hit it a few times but not back and forth like that.

I'm as big of fan as any...but c'mon.

Tyson was not slow in his prime, he had so much power and speed behind his punch. just watch some of his knock out fights on youtube. he knocked ppl out that blocked his punches

Bruce Lee wouldn't block Tyson's punches he simply wouldn't be where Tyson's fist landed. Then he would lay Tyson out and Tyson would think "did anyone get the number of that bus?"

lee was no weakling either, you ever seen footage of the 2 inch punch? lee can also kick.

in a boxing match each in their prime tyson would either get worn out or land a good punch.

in a street fight he would try to box and bite and get his *** handed to him.

tysons fists were the size of lees head, when tyson gets a hold of lee, lee is dead. Lee does not have enough strength to over power tyson, plus tyson doesnt get worn out in his prime

Well I think it boils down to this,
1. It would be extremely hard for Tyson to hit Lee.
2. Lee could block most of Tysons punches, ( All but the most direct )
3. Lee was an expert in hitting the damage zones and we all have those, even Tyson.
4. Tyson would eventually wear down all though it may have taken 13 to 14 rounds.
5. If Lee was allowed to kick, this would be a huge advantage for Lee. This would put Tyson into a non standard tactics, if he even had tactics??
6. My opinion is that Lee was way more intelligent than Tyson, this has to have an advantage factor.
7. Tysons punch was fast, but Lee's entire body was fast!

My conclusion, Lee would have most likely won, unless Tyson got a lucky punch. Lee was highly trained in avoiding lucky punches but what to hell, anything can happen. I still think lee would have taken the bout. But that is just my opinion and we all know, anything can happen in a fight!
