Tyson was the first man to Ko Pinklon Thomas He was the first man to Ko Tyrell Biggs He was the first and only man to Ko Holmes He was the first and only man to Ko Spinks He was the first man to Ko Tony Tubbs Kod Alex Stewart in one round, who had had gone the distance with Foreman Kod Lou Savarese in one round who had also gone the distance with Foreman First man to Ko Buster Mathis, whod been the distance with Bowe And Vitalis chin based on? taking an uppercut from Lewis? If Vitalis claim to fame is losing (in his prime) to Lewis TK06, then Tyson is greater, because he was over the hill and still lasted 8 rounds with a much better Lewis
If Tyson cant make any damage on Vitali in the first 3,4 rounds, than Vitali would stop him or a clear UD win!
Vitali is about 8 inches taller than Mike and he hit harder than anyone Tyson ever faced, plus he has an outstanding chin and jab (as you may know, Tyson struggled with fighters like this.) Lennox took him out tk0 6, but never really hurt him. After all these years he hasn't been any real trouble. As good as some of the fighters you mentioned are, they were either past their prime, out of their weight class, or not all that damn good to begin with.
How would Chisora do against Vitali when he wasn't in his 40's? How would a 40 year old Tyson do against Chisora?
Tyson was already retired before 40 Chisora still took everything Vitali threw at him and kept coming. I dont see a younger vitali stopping him any earlier, a younger vitali would probably trade more but then that would give Chisora more openings.
A yonger Vitali would have beat Chisora worse than Haye did. By the time Tyson was 40 he had been ko'd 5 times and retired because he was completley washed up at 36.
Vitali took 8 rounds to take out a bum like Danny Williams, Chisora had a granite chin and would always come to fight, and Haye, like it not, hits much harder than Vitali. Flip the script Tyson was undefeated, undisputed champion at the age of 22, he cleaned out his entire division and had a few hundred million in the bank. What was Vitali doing at 22? Even at 40, he hasnt lit up the sport like Tyson did.
Vitali fought old men and bums. Every good fighter he fought, he lost. That would be Lewis and Chris Byrd. Tyson would be eating Vitlay's ribs for dinner, breaking him down like no other fighter could or would. Only way VK wins is if he continuously holds for dear life and stinks up the joint. Tyson KO 5
Whenever a fighter comes to bring it to Vitali, theres always an injury excuse just around the corner. Even against Chisora, he knew he was in deep waters so he had the whole 'one arm' excuse ready. I honestly thought he would quit, he had the look on his face in the corner. Vitali has got nothing to beat Tyson with, his size just means hell be durable and take the punishment Tyson dishes out Tysons hands move faster than Vitalis feet, whos footwork isnt very good anyway. Vitali is a stiff mechanical robot, Douglas on the other hand was fluid, feinting, fantastic footwork and throwing multiple combinations Vitalis never even heard of. Sorry i dont see Vitali stopping or grinding Tyson down. In a war between the two id pick Tyson to outlast him. Thats if Vitali hasnt quit already
