    Vital;i spends his life on the backfoot and running if hes met with some one whos actually willing to bring the fight to him, all to easy for mike who gets the job done in 2 rounds, vitali quits when the going gets tough

    And Tyson got frustrated and started doing stupid things whenever he met someone actually willing to bring the fight to him

    lol, running and quitting? are you picking the version of Vitali who fought with a severe shoulder injury or the 40yo washed up Vitali who ALSO fought with a shoulder injury as ¨prime¨?

    I can use ******ed logic too and forget we're talking about fighters in their primes here:

    Tyson is a disgraceful coward who quit against a total bum Kevin Mcbride, was a punching bag for Lewis, the only person of similar size/skills to the Klitschkos he ever fought, got punked by Danny Williams whom Vitali destroyed, got owned in his prime by a nobody Buster Douglas and never beat any of the great HW's of his era:deal.

    prime Tyson couldn't even ko a ****ing bum like Bonecrusher Smith, whose only advantage over Tyson was height. (He even put Tyson on ***** street the only time he let his hands go 10 seconds before the final bell). And you're saying he's gonna KO Vitali in 2? lol, Vitali destroys him.

    This shows how much boxing you know Prime Tyson, would punch with someone who jab. which basically made a jsb useless against him. Prime Tyson before Don King, while with Atlas or Kevin Rooney would take the Klitschkos heart like he had done many other fighters. He smasted the steel jawed Larry Holmes who tried to jab Tyson away.

    Buster Douglas was just a quitter, check out his fight with Lewis or Holyfield, in those fights he never really tried to get up he kind of waited for the ref to count him out. Before he got Knocked down by Lewis in I think the fifth round he was giving Lewis one hell of a fight. Douglas only showed some heart in one fight and that was against a over confident Tyson.

    I think you made a lot of good points.

    for me the klit bros are a weight above heavyweaight, meaning super heavyweight.

    while I know that there is not super heavyweight division, fact is, that they are taller, bigger and way more than past heavyweight atg's!!!

    himself, very tall and big didnt just beat tyson or evander because he had such superior skills, he beat tyson and holyfield, because he had much more reach, therefore could land those jabs with his long arms, was much taller, so therefore his opponents had an tougher time counterpunching him and he simply could outmuscle them, because he was bigger.

    same reason why
    This content is protected
    dominate so much of their 6'2 opponents. nobody can tell me klits would have such an easy time with the like of samuel peter or david haye, would haye and peter be 6'7 inches and have arms as long as basketball players!!!

    one big reason why vitaly had such an difficult time with lennox is that lewis was maybe not as tall, but as big as him and nearly as tall and had even longer arms than vitalys.

    technicly, the like of prime evander or prime tyson are > klitschkos technic.
    but not everything is based on skills and often pure strength and an bigger taller body wins the fight.

    at the end, I see it this way.

    you guys all stupid?

    the thread marks prime klitschko

    you all come up with sanders, brewster or byrd, the klitschko werent nearly their prime when they fought those guys.

    wladimir is at the moment (maybe haye fight) in his prime.

    vitaly was (around the areolo fight) in his prime.

    Klit SUCKS. All of the above beat him prime for prime. ALL OF THEM. Klit is the champ in the weakest HW division in our generation. Quit overrating this bum. He's slow and clumsy. Sure he's got some power but any legit heavyweight will beat him, unfortunately Lewis was the last one. ANd lewis out of his prime still beat him.

    Lewis already beat him but a prime Lewis decapitates either Klit. Tyson, ,Frazier ,Foreman, Louis ,Ali, and Holyfield all can handle and beat a prime Klitchko.

    Chris Byrd is 1 & 2 vs. the Klitschkos................with the 2 losses to Wlad being very lopsided with multiple knowndowns & a boxing clinic, both times. He was never in it.
