    1. Tyson faster yes - BUT his speed is overated - Tom Brooks who trained Tyson And WALDO said WALDO has Much faster hands.

    2. Resumes of Tyson And VITLAY quite equal IMO - BUT if VITLAY wins VS Haye And Ademek = then VITLAY has better resume of wins. :deal

    Boxers often reply with apparently peculiar answers as to who the hardest hiiter they have faced is.

    Regardless there is no way a 2010 Vitali K is better then 1998 Lewis.

    They both foguth post 2000 washed up Tyson, who did not get nearly the torque and momentum behind his punches as his late 1980's bob and weave days.

    I don't care what any trainer says, you only have to watch the 2 of them in action to see who really has the faster hands, and it ain't WALDO.

    VITLAY doesn't come close to Tysons resume. Actually being undisputed champion puts Tyson on a different level, being the youngest ever champion does too.

    Riddick Bowe said Herbie Hide was the hardest hitter he ever faced :rofl:rofl:rofl

    What's even more amusing is that the Klit-ites use that comment to big up VITLAY :rofl:rofl:patsch

    Regarding what Briggs said, the older Foreman did not hit him or hurt him as much. Anyone who saw both fights could tell you Briggs is telling the truth.

    Which puncher did Bowe face that hit harder than Hide? Care to list a name or two? Don't even say Golota.

    Holyfield and Cooper for a start. Hide shouldn't even be mentioned, he never beat anyone of note in his whole career. He had a lot of KO's and TKO's admittedly but they were all against over the hill fighters and bums - sound familiar?
