Would Mike Tyson have been able to take Povetkin's power shots without getting knocked out?

    I guess obviously Povetkin would and still could today. Probably Tony Thompson as well. Maybe a couple of others.

    I love Mike Tyson and his podcast is pretty cool check it out if you haven't , I think Mike Tyson is an ATG but I wouldn't have him in my top ten but top 20 for sure. But yeah I would have Mike Tyson pre prison as a heavy favorite going in.

    I look at Povetkin, Chagaev, Thompson, Pulev, Ibragimov, Haye, Peter, Brock, Chambers, Sanders and Byrd would fare very well against the top ten now. two of them are still in the top ten lol.

    I think you are insecure.

    I had get your opinion: prime Tyson will beat everyone.:D
    If someone does have another opinion, he for you is insecure etc. :p

    Will be able Prime Tyson beat Prime Klitschko, Prime Lewis ? I do not think so.
    Will be able Prime Tyson beat A.J or Fury? Im not sure.
    They are too large:D .

    You realize Tyson did beat several very good big guys in his heyday? Not to mention, we've had plenty of big guys who straight out were mediocre, even with boxing ability, and their size meant nothing. Boxing is more than just 'bigger guy wins'.

    I guess he's just more interested on trolling about Americans while acting superior to other posters?
