[QUOTE="Giovonny, post: 38788, member: 404"] Honestly, they are both probably freaks of nature... But I'm not talking about looks. I'm talking about raw strength, power, explosivesness AND potential to get big, fast. Tyson was not a bodybuilder or power lifter. His strength and power was mostly a gift from God. Magnus trained for size, strength, and power. If Magnus boxed 4 hours a day and did tons of cardio, what would he look like? Tyson ran for almost an hour a day and trained in boxing, and he still looked like that at 19 yeats old. If Tyson trained as a bodybuilder I'm sure he could get huge. He was so thick and muscular at a young age. The best way to tell would be to look at a picture of both of them at 16 or 18 years old. But this is not about Tyson vs Magnus. Its about genetics, potential to get big. Most of us will train for years and never be as big as those 2 guys. They are both gifted. And, in regards to the pictures...In the Tyson picture, he is 19 or 20 and looks like that without lifting much weight. The Magnus picture, he is in his 30's and has been lifting heavy for years. I would argue that Tyson looks better because he is a teenager who hasn't really lifted weights. Personally, I would like to see them fight! [/QUOTE]
