For $1m? You wouldn’t? You can’t be serious? It’s not like you were proposed to take a bullet for a million.

Tyson today or in his prime? I think that’s a consideration here.

A full power left hook from Tyson with no glove would more than likely shatter your orbital bone into multiple pieces. That means it would literally crush your face.

It is absolutely possible to die from a punch and if you did survive, you would have to endure multiple plastic surgeries on your face to look somewhat closeto normal or as you looked before.

I'm not sure why you're acting like he would hit you, you go down, and then get back up like "alright, cool bro. Now, where's my million bucks?" That ain't how it would go down champ.

A left to the face? Nope.

A left to the body? Probably.

Hell no.

Lesser boxers than Tyson have accidentally killed opponents in the ring, and those opponents were trained to take a punch.

who the frick wouldnt do that for just $1000 its just a bruise and some soreness that lasts about a week, its not like you lose a limb


There's one in every crowd. So, you think a former undisputed heavyweight champion who was known for his tremendous, explosive power would only bruise you and cause a bit of soreness that lasts about a week if he took a clean shot at your chin?????

Oh, and would do it for $1000 to boot. Hell, the Emergency Room visit would cost you way more than that. Then there's the facial reconstruction surgery from a probable broken jaw or possibly an orbital bone fracture, dental work and follow up treatments.

Hell, even if he just went for a liver shot he'd likely break a couple ribs and who knows what damage to the internal organs. That guy has/had enough concussive power to seriously alter people's concept of reality.

But====you're already there.

$1 mil wont even cover hospital bills and medical expense for treating the lifetime of brain damage Tyson would cause. I’ll pass

Agreed. Tyson may have lost some power but not technique

Exactly. He can literally kill you with his fists.

Id rather that than be hit by Rhonda Rousey OR Bruce Lee. With either of them your head might literally get knocked off.

I think it would be need to be at least for 5 million. He's going to break your jaw or crush your face so it would need to be for considerable amount of money.

I would take a bullet in the buttocks for a million but I wouldn’t take Tyson bare knuckles left for 1 million.

A straight up hook without being able to at least try to deflect it? Like eyes closed, chin up and standing up straight?

I know a thing or two about boxing, and you are a damn fool if you think it’s worth it.

What's most impressive is that this isn't an alter. You've got like 7000 posts waiting for your moment to shine.


This is what a Mike Tyson left looks like on trained boxers who know how to protect themselves in the ring. Mike Tyson would kill you stupid motherfrickers that think you can step in the ring with him and take a shot.






And that's not even Tyson's signature move. This devastating combination was. He was fast enough to pull this off. Right hook to the body to drop the other guy's hands, then a lightning fast right uppercut to push the other guy's reset button.




I think you can pick out the exact moment the soul leaves the body.

For comparison: How the OT throws the uppercut.

A left hook? An upper cut? A left jab? Can he fully step into it? Tyson now or Tyson at 22? A lot of factors to consider. And my answer is no to all.

I’m assuming prime Mike and I just stand there as he loads all his power into one punch to my head.

With a bare fist, the probability of brain damage is very high and a decent chance of death.

You would need the 1 million to pay your medical bills and to have someone feed you. Could cause permanent brain damage. The amount of force a trained fighter hits with is not like some baw in a bar fight
