test my chances against Mike Tyson
Since you said street-fight, a good heavyweight MMA guy that has some decent take-downs would get Mike Tyson on the ground and either sub him or ground and pound him. Not saying the MMA guy might eat a nasty upper cut trying that take-down from Iron Mike that would knock him the frick out but my money is on a legit MMA heavyweight like a Cain Valesquez in a street fight.
Now if Iron Mike was fighting Bruce Lee, that would be a worthy of another thread....

No way Bruce Lee could take down Ol' Mike and I am a huge Bruce Lee fan-although he didn't compete in tournaments for whatever reason.
Bruce Lee could't beat up a Bull and that is about the equivalent of small bruce against a prime Mike Tyson.
I see where size is definitely a factor that will always be in play. I love MMA and find it enjoyable having lived with some folks who are Kung-fu and Jiu Jitsu artists of their own. A whole family of them. To hear all the different striking techniques and areas to hit is fascinating stuff.
These people are the ones who told me that Boxers in a street fight are more formidable because getting someone to the ground would be very difficult Boxers are very good at evading an incoming attacker they claim. Why, I don't know. lol.. A good boxer mind you of course. Very well trained at protecting their head and other vital areas.
The whole world of MMA is a testament to the arts that allowed it to happen and come to being.
