Tysons era compared to Wald's today

Tysons Era was better.

Klits Era sucks.

However nothing against the Klits. Those 2 would be competetive in any area. Especially Vitali. I'd pick him over tyson.

What do you think about tht tyson lovers???

:blurp

 

Neither fight beat anybody the other fighter wouldn't have. Thats all that needs to be said really.

 

I'm not a Tyson lover, but I think you're wrong.

 

No thats not true. Ali was a boxer, Holmes was a boxer, Lennox Lewis was a boxer, but the one thing that these guys had in common, and what made them so special was they were complete fighters and could fight different styles. The competition was also better schooled to fight the same way. Tyson was also a complete fighter, he wasnt just a pressure brawler, he set up shots with a jab, movement, and defensive counterpunching. Sure it was more exciting, but he took technical boxers that were much taller than him to school. The fighters of today are not schooled the same, therefore they lack a lot of what makes boxing exciting.
The Klitschkos are so far superior talentwise, but they all fight the same way. All the fights are boring safety first boxing matches. I guess if you grew up through three or four eras of heavyweight boxing you would understand, but most on here dont know any different than whats happening today.

 

Sure buddy. Go watch some fights and learn something.

 

Absolutely NO comparison.

Tyson dominated his era by deploying REAL boxing skills.
The KLITS dominate their era simply because of their height and size, no skill involved, plus the level of opposition is Peters, Thompson, and other "C" level fighters.

 

Oh,

I base my andswer on the fact Vitali can Box, has a granite Chin so will get through the 1st 6 rounds, then will start to Pummel Tyson Buster Douglas Style, resulting in and 11th round KO.

Providing he can get round the Tyson storm of the first 4 rounds.

 

So if Vitali folded under the pressure of an old Lennox Lewis in five rounds, he would easily withstand a faster more elusive and better pressure fighter in Tyson? atsch Was Tyson a four round fighter in his prime?

 

Tyson KO 1 ala Razor Ruddock

 

They are most likely referring to the post jail era that Tyson fought in with Lewis, Holyfield, Bowe et.al

The late 1980's era sucked more than a plant in the Sahara desert during a rain squall.

 

But he was certainly as his best in the 1st four rounds. Wants he'd start to slow down he wasn't s effectice. His style is about being quick and explosive.
I admit Tyson is a better Heavyweight.However I think Vitali's style is all wrong for him.
Nothing wrong with that opinion. Just cos its differant to yours, no need to whack yoursef in the head.

Charisma is part of fighting style. Lewis and Holmes were not as popular as Ali and Tyson, but still leagues ahead of the Klitschkos, who cant even get on HBO, because they put the crowd to sleep. The reason for their unpopularity is because the American public is used to excitement and expects it, they dont care about the opposition, so if the Klitschkos took chances to make fights exciting against limited offensive low risk fighters like Kevin Johnson, and went for knockouts, they could probably get back on HBO.
Thats why Vitali is now signing to fight Shannon Briggs, because HBO knows that Briggs even though hes got the stamina of my grandmother will take his chances to win, and maybe pull the best out of Vitali and make the fight exciting!

 

:good

 

If a fat Corrie Sanders can destroy Wlad and have Vitaly stunned, then i fancy Tysons chances against either
