Without laughing can anyone here honestly argue that Wlad would beat a prime Tyson?

    Prime Tyson would have Wlad leaving on a stretcher, probably after the first round.

    Pawing isn't gonna do **** against phenomenal foot-speed and head movement, as soon as he slips the first paw and gets inside, it's lights out.

    Your talking about the late age 30's version of Tyson. Even the 90's version of Tyson took everything from Holyfield and never layed down, headbutts and all. Same could be said when he fought Buster, he took monster shots, and still kept coming till the 10th or 11th round when he was knocked out.

    Prime Tyson was a destroyer, he could lay you out fast or he could put you to sleep late. Wlad is mentally weak himself, anytime a fighter even lands decent on him or presses the action. He either clinches, panics, or hits the canvas. Wlad lacks toughness, anyone that watches him could see that.

    tyson can take wladimir's best punches over and over again, can wladimir do that? wladimir can land 100 punches, and tyson would still be coming forward. tyson lands one blow, and the chances are wladimir will be on the canvas. i think we can use common sense to see who would win this one unless you believe tyson won't be able to land a punch on wladimir? in that case, you'll be thick as **** to believe that.

    Tyson would do the thing Wlad hates the most - walk forward, low, swinging, boom.

    Prime Tyson = overrated. Struggled with Bonecrusher (I was ko'd once in 4 rounds before I went 12 with Tyson) Smith and Tony Tucker. Today's Wlad, who's boring style is underappreciated by everyone but his beaten opponents, would proove once again that little guys are outmatched, especially considering tyson fragile psyche.

    Are you serious? How many hall of famers, much less ATGS has Wlad fought? Don't even count beaten, just fought?

    When has Wlad unfied the title?

    When has Wlad even really been considered unarguably the best of his era?

    Wlad is no where near Tysons accomplishment. Not even in the same arena.

    H2H, any version of Wlad gets dominated by a prime Tyson. Would never make it past 6 rounds.

    Now the current version of Wlad could beat the the late 90's version of Tyson, but that would be a 50/50 prospect.

    Wow the first time I actually agree with Jaccory Harris.

    Yeah Tyson would eat him up. Wlad can't fight on the inside. He freaks out under pressure . It wouldn't even be a fight.

    Douglas was a better fighter then Wlad. And we know what was going on with Tyson at the time.

    You moron. Struggled with Bonecrusher? :lol: Tyson won about every round against Tucker. Tony Tucker was also undefeated anda way better fighter then Wlad. Yeah he had actual boxing skills, something todays HW's don't even what the **** that is.
