Who's greater: Wladimir Klitschko or Mike Tyson?

Did you just slip Bowe's name in there....? Oh no you didn't. atsch Andrew Golota beat seven shades of **** outta Bowe TWICE using a decent jab & decnt power punches. What would Wlad have done to Bowe using his far superior jab, footwork ring smarts & overall power advantage? The only thing that Golota or Bowe had over current Wlad is infighting but why fight inside when you're kicking ass from the outside? Don't fix it if it ain't broken......

Oh, and Foreman is tough but let's not compare boxing ability......:yep Big Beorge wasn't exactly a technician nor would he be the bigger man in the ring. He could land a devastating right hand no doubt, but it's not probable. Tyson is too small to deal with a fighter Wlad's size that knows how to use that size to keep his opponents out on the end of his punches. Both Klitschkos do this better than any big Heavyweight in recent history.

Lewis is a toss up based on both fighter's best versions as well as their worst. If the best version of Wlad shows up against the version that lost to McCall or Rahman, of course Wlad wins. Same goes for the best Lewis fighting against the Wladimir that fought Sanders or Brewster. That's my honest opinion as a big fan of both fighters.

 

WHen was Tyson's "prime"? When his fans say so! LOL, Tyson has like 3 years where he could beat anybody. . Nevermind how he got TWAXED by Buster mother****ing Douglas a mere 5 years into his professional career, at the young, ripe age of 24! LULZ. . .

But nooooo, that doesn't count, cause Tyson wasn't in his prime!

THen Holyfield PWNED him. . . TWO TIMES! Not once. . BUT TWO TIMES!!!

 

Tyson would have koed WLad in one round. Wlad just not have the chin to compete with the likes of Tyson and Lennox Lewis. He would have been hit in those fights and he would go down. Even the Lewis that fought Vitali would kill Wlad. Those shot Lewis land on Vitali would have put Wlad on ***** st.

 

I agree with the except Holyfield has the warrior intangibles that are hard to teach a fighter. He just refuses to lose. I'd give Holy a better shot at beating Wladimir than I would Tyson. And that's not much of a chance either......

 

Ibragimov, Chagaev, Haye, would all toast most of Holyfield's opponents. The guy was almost KO'd by Bert Cooper.

 

Holyfield would have beat Wlad too. You guys are crazy to think Wlad is great based on the easy fights he is taking. Wlad is fighting nothing but tomato cans. Wlad to me is like a Gerry Cooney. He would get hit ass kicked if he fought back in the 90's or 80's

 

So I guess you don't think Wlad can hit as hard or box as good as Rahman or McCall? They got to Lennox's chin didn't they? In fact Rahman had him down and out from a single punch, remember? Of course you don't........

I would like to see the Wlad knockdown that lasted as long as Lewis vs. Rahman............

 

Wlad beats Cooney fairly easily...........

 

atsch

 

Yup, saw that fight too. But to Holy's credit, he came back & turned the tables. That's the intagibles I'm talking about.

 

Yep. Cooney had 20 successful championship fights did he? :nut

 

I honestly think Wlad would have **** himself if faced with Tyson.

 

You are a dreamer.......

 

If you are going to bring that up then you have to also mention Wlads ko losses.

Holyfield fought:Lewis x2, Tyson x2, Bowe x3

Ibragimov beat a shot Holyfield and a fringe contender in Briggs
Haye and Chagaev beat no one worth mentioning at hw

 

Haye beat Valuev on points and John Ruiz by stoppage, John Ruiz beat a prime Holyfield. Try again pal.
