After watching this anyone who says they would be willing to take a punch in the face is a liar.

I'd get in the ring with him in his prime for 100,000. I'd stand zero chance of lasting the 1st rd but I would get some easy money
eta: 1 punch? 5000

Remember that time he got in a street fight with another boxer? That dude eye was freaking swollen and green. I can't remember the dudes name though.

The guy could KO people with a glancing blow. If he is just trying to hit you as hard as he can and doesn't have to worry about the target moving or being hit back, death is a possibility.
Yep. I wouldn't do it for any amount. Tyson, in his prime, was legit terrifying.

Get the money in advance and use it to pay the premium for one month on a nice insurance policy for the family.
Smart thinking.

Also, Tyson today, would kick the shite out of Bruce Lee in his prime.. [hijack]

If I read the OP correctly then you have to take a flush punch from an in his prime Tyson. No bobbing, weaving, ducking or even throwing your own hands up to at least absorb a little of the incoming.
In that scenario, there is an 80% plus chance that he disconnects most average people's (ie: the people here) spinal cord from their brain stem or causes a stroke or some form of severe brain trauma from a head shot.
A body shot reduces the "imminent death or disability" risk considerably but he's still paying me more than 4 figures to make that work. Tyson is going to have to pay me life changing money before he gets the opportunity to (negatively) change my life.

This. Actual boxers have been killed in the ring. A non-athlete taking a punch from a former heavyweight champ could be fatal.

Medical bills? I mean, you are going in expecting to walk away with some broken ribs
if he ruptured your spleen or liver it might be a life threatening event

Absolutely. He's put 230lb men who take punches to the face for a living on the ground shaking with a punch when they're moving backwards. I'd be toast
I honestly wouldn't do it for any amount of money

Tyson never took a test, but people estimated his punching power to be around 1800 PSI. That's almost 1 ton of force on your head or body.
I'd do it for 10k

The more relevant question is who is the SOB who would put up the money to see me get punched by Iron Mike in his prime? I wanna know.

It would be crowd sourced through gofundme

After watching that you can't convince me that Tyson isn't the best fighter to ever live. By that I mean in his prime he beats every heavyweight boxer that ever lived
