    Wish i had a time machine watching Wlad laying in the ring in a warm yellow puddle would be priceless Wlad tries to hold tyson and is beat to body and head

    Wlad looked like he wanted to cry when Haye wore a tshirt with him and his brothers heads Tyson would beat him before he stepped into the ring

    Tyson was champion in one of the weakest heavyweight divisions! The 80es were even worse than the early 90es... berbick was probably one of the worst champions ever.

    But Ruddock, Tucker, Bruno could all be top 10 fighters today Ruddock and Bruno even top 5 they have a chance of beating Povetkin so I think they would all be better fights for Wlad than Wach, Mormeck,.... I understand that the Klitschkos are great fighters there aren't many boxers in the history of boxing who have a chance of beating them and I wouldn't favor anyone to beat them (beside maybe Lewis) but they aren't unbeatable and prime Tyson could be someone to beat them. Since those fights can never happen we can only assume anyway

    RUDDOCK and Bruno would have murdered Povetkin. Lmfao.

    16 year old Lewis would have murder Povetkin.

    Povetkin is a utter bum.

    He'd be number 1. Just out of fear; you think one of these guys hadn't heard of a prime Tyson wrecking ball? Either they'd be in denial, call him a headcase and be suprised, or fear him and get dropped. Klitschkos would take him seriously but Wlad would panic and Vitali would be an incredible fight, before getting KOd against the ropes.

    So not stopping someone means you didnt really win? It's called boxing numb nuts and you're allowed to win on points! Tyson won 11 of 12 rounds against Smith, and Tucker and won 9 of 10 against Mitch Green.

    Before he was a fat addict Tucker was on his way to being truly great. Hand speed,athleticism and KO power in both hands.

    Yeah Lewis avoided Bowe's 1 million dollar offer to fight HIV positive Tommy Morrison and Frank Bruno.

    No the size difference played no part. Tyson also lost to a 6'1" Danny Williams around this time period. You're such a fake. You you think you're ****ing with? You're a troll and we got ya boy!

    Tyson will beat the **** out of Current Vitali.
    Shot Lewis beat the **** out of PRIME Vitali starting from Round 4.
    Prime Tyson is just as good as Shot Lewis. So OLD Vitali is dead.

    There is no one fighting today who could beat prime Tyson.

    I think beats everyone. Years later he eventually loses a rematch to Vitali, falls into obscurity, then finally retires.

    How is Wlad tailor made? Wlad can use his long jab very effectively and when Mike gets in close tie him up just enough to get a break. Wlad has a big punch also

    So because Tyson beats Berbick you think that means he can beat every current top 10 fighter the same way. And you ask me if im 12 :patsch

    Bruno got beat, but at the time Tyson had never been hit like that before. I think that the Klitschkos would beat Bruno also

    Tyson had good upper body work, but that doesnt mean that Haye doesnt have skill and footwork to compete with that

    Now whos a troll?
    You really think Lewis who was chasing Bowe, avoided Bowe, who he had KOd as an amateur.
    Yes or no = Did Bowe through his title in a bin rather than fight Lewis?
    Lewis was mandatory and was awarded the belt because the Bowe fight didnt happen. Why did Bowe lose his title?
    Lets hear it. This will be good

    Yeah thats right call someona a troll if they dont agree completely with you. The size difference and weight played a massive part

    You call me a troll because you are a fanboy? :nut.
