One fight fan has answered the ultimate fantasy booking question by pitting Mike Tyson and Kimbo Slice together in a bare knuckle boxing fight on Fight Night Champion.
Inside the ring Tyson was known as the 'most dangerous man on the planet' and in the mid to late 1980s there was no boxer, certainly in the heavyweight division, who could get close to 'Iron Mike.'
As far as fighting in the street goes, though, the king was Kimbo Slice, with the former MMA star making his name in street fighting.

But what if the two men fought in a bare knuckle boxing fight, mixing their two disciplines? One gamer found out by simming the fight of Fight Night Champions.
Despite Slice having a height and reach advantage the fact that it's a boxing fight certainly gives the former world heavyweight champion Tyson an advantage.
It's a proper slugfest of a fight with both men generally abandoning the need for jabs and instead just going for it.

Iron Mike knocks his opponent down after just a couple of minutes, only for Slice to get back to his feet, but the second knockdown sees the end of the fight with the former MMA star short of stamina and not being able to beat the 10 count.
As with all fantasy bookings we'll sadly never get to see the pair get it on, timing means neither man was about in the others career, and Slice, real name Kevin Ferguson sadly passed away in 2016.
The Bahamian had a record of 5-2, with one no contest, in his professional MMA career and made two appearances in the octagon for UFC.

Slice's son Kevin Ferguson Jr, also known as Baby Slice, has continued his dad's legacy and already had several professional MMA fights.
The 27-year-old, who lives in Florida, has a 3-2 record inside the octagon, and like his dad also has a no contest result to his name following what was initially a win for himself.
Perhaps Baby Slice could fill in for his late father in the fight with Mike Tyson, although the former boxer in now 53 so we'll keep this one to simulating on games.
