    Why does Wlad get flak now for hugging the French Tyson?

    It got mentioned right from the start...Tyson throwing himself into Lewis. Course he'll get leaned on. Not saying Lewis wasn't a clincher. Both him and Wlad trained by Steward.

    Tyson over the hill version...........

    The hates did not say one word about Alexander grabbing, holding. The haters have a double standard because they are blind with hate..........

    Klitschkos are the very best and the haters hate it....................they keep knocking out all their heroes.............

    the nearly same? Listen I know Tyson was past his best when he fought Lewis. The fact is that people were giving tyson a chance in the Lewis fight. EVERYONE knew Mormeck was going to get beat. The Mormeck that lost to Haye in 2007 was past his best...and that was at Cruiser.

    Look Tyson was shot to bits in the 2000's....if anyone gave him a chance against Lewis, they gave him because of what he was more then 10 years earlier.

    In reality there wasn't much of a difference btw. that Tyson and this Mormeck.

    After rewatching the fight I think prime tyson knocks Lewis out early. He caught Lewis a few times early on and wobbled him. Prime Mike KO inside 3

    And Im a Lewis fan

    Lewis held David Tua as well. Just watch the fight. I am not saying it is wrong. But it is funny how Lewis's fans cry about Wladimir's holding.

    "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?"

    Hypocrites.

    In that first round there were 11 clinches.

    Thats against a 235lbs and a real heavyweight banger in Mike Tyson.


    In Klitschko - Blown up LHW Mormeck, there were 16 clinches in the first round.

    Thats against a 216lbs blown up LHW who struggled with Timur Ibragimov and Fres Oquendo and has a grand total of 0 knockouts as a heavyweight and not a stoppage win since 2006.

    The Tyson that stepped into the ring with Lewis would have smashed Mormeck.

    Saying past prime Tyson = past prime Mormeck is ****ing insulting.

    Mormeck has 0 knockouts as a heavyweight.

    To compare him to Tyson is ludicrous.
