I have two different promo CD singles for this; 1989 does not seem to be an especially popular year for including listed times, and none appear on either of these promos, either:
Tina Turner-"The Best" (DPRO-79709)
1-(Single Version) (actual 4:09)
2-(LP Version) (actual 5:28)
Tina Turner-"The Best" (DPRO-79855)
1-(Single Muscle Mix) (actual 4:14)
2-(Extended Mighty Mix) (actual 6:34)
3-(Extended Muscle Mix) (actual 5:27)

To supplement the promo CD single info now in the database, I wanted to also note that commercial 45 copies of Tina Turner's "The Best" runs 4:09. (Timing info compliments of abagon. The record label on his copy states "Edit" with a printed time of 4:08.)

Obscure fact: In 1992, the song was remixed with additional vocals from
Australian singer Jimmy Barnes and got re-released as a single in Australia.
It hit #14 in the charts and even had a new music video:

Nowadays, most oldies stations only play the original version and the
remix's de-facto B-side, Jimmy Barnes covering Tina's own "River Deep,
Mountain High" has outlived it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
