    Wach is one of the worst boxers ever to fight for the Heavyweight title.

    How do you become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world by being well matched?

    Sorry my friend but that was a poor response, in what way other than chin does Wach even compare to Tyson. Iron Mike would slip those punches and come back HARD.

    Wlad is a great fighter, but styles make fights.

    Even stationary slugger Sam Peter put Wlad on the ground 3 times. There is a reason Wlad won't fight Chisora. Styles.

    Chisora is no Tyson, but he would give Wlad the best fight since Corey Sanders and we know what happened there.

    All of that is debatable, my friend.

    I was just answering your earlier question:

    Pushing him back would be an act that requires aggresion and being on the inside whilst at risk of being clocked himself. In all the years of watching Wladimir since he hooked up with Steward has he ever done that, please somebody answer this.

    Sam Peter is not the right style. He is a big target with no head movement. He is a slugger and too slow.

    He attempted to utilize head movement in his second fight against Wlad, but he was not quick enough with his movements and became easily exhausted due to his size.

    Tyson is the perfect foil for Wlad. He has rapid closing speed, great head movement, and excellent hooks, delivered lightening fast.

    It's probably the worst possible stylistic match up you could put against Wlad.

    20 year old Mike tears Wlad a new *******. Anything after that is in Wlad's favour, although shell of Tyson still managed to hang with Lennox for eight rounds, and Lennox only kept him off the first couple of rounds with upper cuts, a punch Wlad does not possess (amongst others).

    Hard to say , because Klitschko does not know how to fight on the inside.

    If Wlad fought the way Holyfield did he'd get KO'ed quickly even against 90's Tyson. But if he fought his fight against 90's Tyson I think he would ride out some rough patches to win on points. He fights too cautiously against punchers to ever push for the KO, so if he wins, it's on points.

    But prime Tyson would KO Wlad, too elusive, too fast and speed always kills the jab and grab style. Jones Jr vs Ruiz, Mayweather vs Hatton, Reid vs Ottke are all good examples of this. You have to get off first with the jab and grab, if you don't you just end up getting hit first and then clinching and then repeat until you get KO'ed or outpointed.

    Both versions of Tyson (prime or not) would get knocked out. I respect Tyson but he is overrated to a certain degree. Wlad's skills combined with his reach and his excellent jab would mean all kinds of trouble for Tyson. People tend to ignore the fact that Wlad's jab is strong enough to keep his opponents at bay.
