Mike Tyson 1988 vs. Wladimir Klitschko 2009

Size is a fair point but You know Wlad is a nice guy but Tyson at the time was mean and intimidated his opponents.Then there is the glass chin issue of Wlad,Mental edge goes to Tyson I think

 

My money is on Stevie hitting the target more often.

 

I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

 

If you projected any harder, it would be as spectacular as a multi million dollar Steven Spielberg film.

 

Depends if Wlad is A side getting referees that are allowing jab & grab in the soft bouncy ring. If so Wlad has change to get Tyson tired and finish him off later rounds.

Normal rules I would pick Tyson

 

Again styles make fights-Tillis could really move show me one fight that Wlad sticks and moves the entire fight
hes going to be standing right in front of a tornado who is Faster then him
Holmes cameback . Tyson starched him in 4 . yet the same Holmes LATTER went the distance with Holy and MCcall .

 

Only a tornado? Sheeeit ol Mike Tyson is becoming devaluaed nowadays. Last I heard he was on the level of Hurricane Katrina

Carry on telling us how good Tillis was, please do.

I'd like to hear more about the exploits of the man that was beaten by Weaver, Page, Thomas, Witherspoon, Williams, Biggs, Coetzee and Marvis Frazier before going the distance with Tyson. He sounds intriguing. In fact, he sounds like the kind of man who, if Wladimir Klitschko had fought him, would be heralded as a bum padding his resume.

 

Here's a fight for your reference:

Yeah, you won't like it. I know.

 

Without picking a winner, in this particular head to head match up, I believe Vitali would have a better chance than Wladimir against Mike.

 

The question is size. Mike would be a little guy against Vlad, but the way Vlad fought at that time I think Mike might land his punch and stop Vlad. But the Vlad of a little later would probably extend it and stop Mike. Just too big.

 

He was very good. Good enough to fight for the heavyweight championship of the world.
At one time he was a highly valued prospect who beat Earnie Shavers.
You also fail to address the fact that TWO years into his career ROSS PURITY stopped Klit.
Then part time boxer Corrie knocked him out followed by BREWSTER who lets keep it real was what only 3 inches taller then Mike? And slower.
Fact of the matter is Klit lacked the mobility needed for a prime Tyson.
Tillis had very good mobility. Not that hard to see.

 

He's not even close to being as fast as Tyson. Not even close.
My god look how LOW he keeps his hands.

 

Purrity, Brewster, Sanders would all have beaten Tillis to a pulp and sent him home with his head wrapped in bandages.

Fact of the matter is, you are wrong.

Tillis is far from Wlad's level. Easy to see.

 

So you agree Klitschko stuck and moved for the entire fight? Thanks.

 

Klitschko doesn't have the courage, will, heart, durability, defense, reflexes, style, reaction time to survive the first 2 rounds with Mike Tyson
