re: Mike Tyson vs Ken Shamrock in their prime

I think boxing is one of the best self defenses to learn as far as a kid against a bully. Especially against multiple bullies. Saying that, and I don't remember the fighting style of Shamrock I have to admit, in my opinion, assuming he's Jiu-Jitsu???? Jiu-Jitsu is the best in 1 on 1, style vs style of fighting. To me having a base in BJJ and also learning boxing is the best. I'd take Shamrock in a one on one fight against Tyson just assuming he's good in Jiu-Jitsu but I was a big Tyson fan growing up.

There are pros and cons to every style and in the end it depends on the people executing the style. Reaction time, toughness, athleticism etc. The weakness of jiu jitsu is the takedown vs a good puncher or striker. In JJ you have to get close. I like wrestling for the takedown because you learn many different shots from different ranges. The best thing is to mesh multiple styles so that aren’t limited in any one area.
Either guy could win this fight because the mismatches are so stark in different areas, but The MMA trained guy certainly has more ways to win.
