if tyson was in his prime

He'd rule the division. The only one I could have seen give him problems was prime Vitali but I would still favor Mike and Vitali is well past prime. Wlad is good but Tyson's head movement would help him avoid that jab and once he is in he would rip his body apart and wear him out very quickly.

 

If you mean he beats everyone today, I agree, except I think he would beat Vitali as well. If you mean he beats everyone ever, no ****in' way..

 

He'd beat them all, Wladimir would be his hardest fight technically.
I don't think Vitali of today match up very well with a prime Mike, Vitali holds his hands down and is pretty stationary.

 

Both Klit's would give him a supreme test for the King of the division. I think Mike would beat eaither of them, but they would present a problem that he has not faced before, likewise he for them. I think Tyson would stand alone on top, and don't believe haye could pull a Holyfield on him either, he would rule untill he lost focus or the next big thing comes along! IMHO

 

he'll destroy 95% of the guys imo.

imo he beats wlad quite badly, but vitali will give him his toughest fight..why? becos of vitali's height, reach, workrate, power, chin and fighters heart.
guys like arreola are tough but are too damn slow and easy to hit, he'l be starched within 3.

haye is just not tough enough imo as good as he is.

but then a guy like james toney will give tyson some hardwork. the toney of 2003-2004.

 

he would knock both klitchkos in 1 round

 

Good post :good

When you watch a guy like prime tyson, small and compact with great skill and knocking over big guys, you realise how leathal a guy like sam langford was. very similar fighting styles

 

:good

 

Toney never did anything at heavy to lead one to believe that he could deal with prime Tyson

 

Back at ya! You don't hear many guys here in general talk about langford and even more don't even know who he is! A candidate for P4P #1 AT...I don't rank him there but his resume is impressive!

 

Tyson would beat Wlad. I think Tyson's lunging hooks with Wlad coming in to grab would create some issues.

Vitali on the other hand? Hmm...tough fight really.

 

Except Vitali? Are you ****ing kidding me?

Tyson at his best would kayo the likes of 95% of the division, and the other 5% he would win decisions over. Vitali, he wouldnt kayo, but he sure as hell would out work that ****in robot from bell to bell.
