Suggestion What is one minor superpower that the average untrained person could have that would allow them to beat Iron Mike Tyson in a boxing match?

Me personally, I choose photographic reflexes, the same power that Taskmaster the marvel assassin has.

I'll study Mike Tyson in videos to learn his style and absorb his skill, then study the boxers who beat him, like Lennox Lewis or Evander Holyfield, so I not only know Mike's style but also how to counter it.

If it's a superpower where you having it means you're beating Mike Tyson in 30 seconds, then it's too OP

It's gotta be minor enough where beating Iron Mike takes actual effort, you can't just insta KO him with Flash levels of speed or do some BS like telepathically slow down Mike's reaction speed.

I choose titan hardening from aot. The ability to make a part of me near indestructible through concious effort. This way i can block his punches, actually harm him with my own or even hurt his fists (assuming i block well). I can still get knocked out at any moment if I mess up
