Still i think Tyson would win in a late ko. Wladimir has problems to hit small and fast fighters clear.

38. Not much older than Wlad is now.

dino - Holmes jab may be better than Wlad's, but there isn't much between them. Wlad's jab is certainly not 'massively inferior'.

That hilarious coming from a Calzaghe nuthugger.

Wlad uses his jab like he's knocking on the door.

Tyson would rape Wladimir.

Tyson-Vitali is where its at, Wladimir wouldn't last 5 rounds.

[T.S.]

I don't know who would win this fantasy matchup that can never be proven but "Bonecrusher" Smith can go the distance with prime Mike Tyson and Wlad Klitschko couldn't?

If you dont rate Tysons win over Holmes you're a hater, its as simple as that. Out of everybody Holmes fought he said he would never fight Tyson again.
4 years after Tyson, Holmes beat Mercer, an undefeated , olympic gold medalist who had just ko'd undefeated Tommy Morrison. Holyfield was ko'ing fighters left right and centre but had trouble with Holmes over 12 rounds.
He was just one point short of beating MaCall who had just knocked out Lewis in 2 rounds, 7 years after the Tyson fight.
To say Mike's win is not an accomplishment is just plain stupid and ignorant.

[LoRd_inFamousX1]

Tyson destroys wlad, it doesn't need any explanations

[|A|C|S|]

As a Rios fan it will be hard to watch this will be a brutal fight where Pac will stop him in 5 rounds
Then Pac will rematch Bradley at the end of the year the Floyd fight never gonna happen

Tyson's win over fat 3 year retired Holmes is Tyson's best win. It's sad that this is all Tyson fans have to try and prove their boy is an ATG....a win over a fat guy who had been retired for 3 years after two losses.

[sean1982]

3 years is an exageration, it was around 19 months, and in that 19 months he had been training, and fought a 15 round exabition match. And he even stated himself he trained hard for tyson a
For 3 months before as the fight had been on the cards for a while.
Its not an awesome win but very very solid considering that tyson demolished him. Something that no one before or after had done.

Uhm..... uh... OK?

Tyson would still make Wladimir look like a confused rape victim, sprawling around in panic, in 3 or 4 rounds max.

i knew you would like that lol...

that being said in my humble opinion tyson wouldnt stand a chance against mannys version of wlad and his mixture of atributes are the reason why..tyson would be knocked out..it wouldnt even go the distance.unless tyson adapted hayes method to count on defence only then it would go the distance

[MrMagic]

I'm sure Tyson would "run" from Wladimir

This is why no-one takes you seriously

Wlad uses his jab like he's knocking on the door.

No he doesn't, he varies it, along with his timing and accuracy that's why he has a great jab.

It's not really much of an accomplishment though, Holmes was inactive and came into the ring overweight and out of practice. Honestly, someone like David Tua would have destroyed Holmes that night

Holmes was actually better when he was more active, such as when he faced Mercer. I'm no Tyson hater, don't be silly and don't get defensive. I'm just telling it how it is, Tyson's win over Holmes doesn't really mean much, it was no better than his wins over the likes of Tony Tucker and Frank Bruno - solid contenders but far from great. Holyfield was KO'ing which fighters at that time? Holyfield was a great technical boxer, but he wasn't a great puncher. The Holmes that Holyfield fought was better than the one Tyson faced.

Tyson would have a very good chance against Wlad, 50/50 fight in my opinion
