Douglas says “Iron Mike” would crush AJ in dream matchup.

In a jaw-dropping declaration, James “Buster” Douglas has asserted that Mike Tyson, in his prime, would have had no trouble dispatching current boxing star Anthony Joshua. This bold claim comes from the man who famously ended Tyson’s unbeaten streak in 1990, snatching the heavyweight world champion title from “Iron Mike.”
Douglas, reflecting on Tyson’s dominance during the late 1980s and early 1990s, told Gambling Zone, “All of Mike’s opponents were easy for him until he fought me. Joshua is no different than anybody else, so yes, Joshua would have been an easy fight for Mike.”
Tyson, coming out of retirement and set to face Jake Paul later this year, was one of the most intimidating figures in boxing history, his fearsome reputation earned through devastating knockouts and a relentless fighting style.
Joshua prepares his comeback
While Douglas is confident about Tyson’s supremacy, Anthony Joshua is on a mission of his own. The former two-time world heavyweight champion is eager to reclaim his throne. His promoter, Eddie Hearn, is leaving no stone unturned to ensure Joshua’s successful comeback.
A massive fight is scheduled for September 21 at Wembley Stadium, with Daniel Dubois as the preferred opponent. However, Hearn has lined up two backup fighters-Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang-should Dubois be unavailable.
The anticipation surrounding Joshua’s return is palpable, especially with the fight’s main sponsorship by Turki Al-Shaikh, chairman of the General Entertainment Authority of Saudi Arabia. Initially, there were plans for Joshua to face Deontay Wilder, but following Wilder’s back-to-back defeats, Dubois emerged as the frontrunner.
Tyson postponed his next fight
Meanwhile, Tyson is preparing for his highly publicized showdown against Jake Paul on November 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. This fight was initially slated for July 20 but was postponed due to Tyson’s medical issues, specifically ulcer flare-ups.
Despite a 19-year hiatus from professional boxing, Tyson has issued a chilling warning to Paul, vowing to “kill” the YouTuber-turned-boxer in their upcoming bout.
With the world of boxing buzzing from these explosive developments, fans are left wondering-what if Tyson and Joshua had actually faced off in their primes? For now, all eyes are on Tyson’s comeback and Joshua’s road to redemption, as the boxing world gears up for a thrilling second half of the year.
