A 53-year-old Mike Tyson could knock out Deontay Wilder inside a minute.

That's the view of one of Tyson's former trainers, Australian Jeff Fenech.

Fenech, a former three-time world champion, is unimpressed with the standards of current boxing and believes the one-dimensional Wilder would be embarrassed by Tyson, the man who terrorised the heavyweight division during the 1980s and 90s.

Fenech, who guided Tyson late in his career says when Deontay Wilder knocked out Luis Ortiz, there was hardly a punch thrown in the fight.

He says boxing's not the same now and he would guarantee that if Mike Tyson trained for six weeks, he'd knock Wilder out in a minute.
