    41 year old Vitali would spank 38 y/o Wlad.

    Both were shot, but Tyson didnt want to fight at all. Tyson had more skills in tact, but his heart wasnt in it. The opposite for Ali. His skills were gone, but he wanted to fight. Id pick Ali.

    Tyson had no skills left, he was slow as hell in his final years, couldn't move around the ring, i suspect he even lost his punching power, the combinations were gone.

    Tyson had given up in his mid 30's mentally!...Ali would have never thrown in the mental towel

    This about sums it up. At that stage they both sucked but Ali would want it more.

    On another tack, mentioning Wlad almost equals trolling :p
