My theory on how the fight would play out still stands
How would Tyson even catch Bruce Lee? Bruce was a excellent dancer and won the 1958 Hong Kong Cha Cha Championship. I guarantee after 20-30 minutes of Tyson following Bruce around and swinging and missing badly he would gas out.
And pound for pound Bruce was stronger than Tyson and no one can debate that. Youtube 1 inch punch for proof
So once again, Bruce would circle Tyson until he 1.) sees a opportunity to kick his kneecap and end the fight or 2.) wait till he gasses out and then kicks his kneecap and ends the fight
Bruce also got into lots or real life street fight against multiple guys at the same times and they had weapons. Tyson would be easy work
You've been watching too much dragon ball Z man or maybe you play mortal combat all day?
both guys bite tyson has more power but lee is quicker. if lee could kick adbul jabbar and norris's ass, what more tyson. i'd pick bruce lee by savage beating
Lee was also better conditioned, the guy would bicep curl 36kg dumbells, could do a seated v for 7 minutes 1 finger push ups.
Also more skilled, schooled in the art of many fighting styles, excellent at long, mid and inside game with knowledge of numerous locks and submission moves.

There's still something called physical limitations. Bruce Lee doesn't have the bone density nor the physical stature to take even a glancing blow from Tyson.
His neck would snap in half from a full blow from Tyson.

What makes you think Tyson would land? And Lee kicks harder.
Also when you train to that level your muscle is stronger than bone.
Fair enough. But I'd like to qualify your final statement. It is not a fact. It's unproven, but that does not make it devoid of truth. Let's be clear on this point. If you want to believe Bruce never had any fighting experience of any kind, go right ahead. There is no record to prove it, to the best of my knowledge.
By the way, I ran into this article while doing some quick research. It's pretty interesting, and happens to have been written for Boxingscene. I was unaware of its existence. I would've copy/pasted the salient paragraph, but the site won't allow it. Here is the link (scroll down to the fourteenth paragraph):
i dont think lee would ever be as good as pacquiao
but if glen johnson can start boxing at 20(turn pro at 24) and do as he did i think lee could do alright for himself being the physical specimen that he is
there are alot of sht "athletes" in boxing, uncoordinated, slow, no snap to transfer force with, the average boxers are like this, guys that really shouldn't be boxing, no matter how much time they spend participating in the sport they wont ever be that good because they are just not natural athletes(sure we've all seen that guy dan cov posted up)
if you were to throw lee as he was in with the likes of say, billy dib, yea he will probabley lose, but he'd learn quick, his physicality alone i think wins him the majority against the club type level guys with just his little experience from street fights and the like, a little experience with some pro fights, good sparring and he'd transform quick, then he could make some noise against a billy dib like guy
even though i think the best he'd ever be(even if he took up boxing from a very young age) is a champ in a weak division
