The two are very similar, but I go with Tyson in this fight.

He's just too powerful to sit and trade punches with.

I wouldn't bring Holyfield into this as far as making comparisons. Holyfield was practically tailor made to beat Tyson. Solid chin, good fundamentals, incredible stamina and recovery... and not afraid of Tyson.

While Frazier has many of those qualities, too, I just don't think he can withstand Tyson's early bombing. Frazier would stand in front of him, take it and pay for it.

Could not have beaten Tyson pre-Prison.

Tyson after prison<<<<<<<<<<<<Tyson before prison.

In his prime, only Tyson could beat Tyson. . .as evidenced by the Buster Douglas fight.
