if tyson was in his prime

I think prime Tyson beats everyone around today. Included Vitali.

 

Vitali is too slow and holds his hands low like someone said. Wlad would be a tougher fight but Iron Mike rules the division in 2009.

 

NO ONE I mean NO ONE will beat Mike Tyson in his prime.

 

Peak Tyson would smash todays HWs... Vitali included. No question about it. It was his speed and head movement that made him so unbeatable... He would be inside the Klits jabs and rights real quick and punishing them to the body. Wouldn't be very close at all I don't think.

 

He crushes Vitali too. And Vlad. Then go has a nice lunch.

 

68 Ali would. Prime Liston might. I wouldn't bet against an 85 Tyson with any other HW.

 

prime Tyson didn't lunge. He bobbed, weaved, jabbed and moved his feet to get inside. Neither K brother could hold him off for long and once he got inside it would be lights out.

 

Tyson would be beat everyone to day. I'm not saying every old timer would clean out the heavyweight division today but Tyson would be the best. Vitali has the best chance to beat him but I'd still pick Tyson.

 

HE WOULD BEAT VITALI ALSO SORRY..........atsch

He beats everyoine period. Even a prime Vitali would be beaten by Mike but not KO'd. Vitali of today would be stopped becuase he is stationary with his hands down.

 

its bad form to call vitali a 'robot' just because it suits some people on eastern euro fghters.

i dont see wlad lasting long at all against mike becasue we're talking about prime, prime punching power (which wlad has too) - but wlad wouldn't have an answer - or defence - to mike's aggression.

vitali's another thing, but hes also less skilled than a prime lewis. i think some people are undervaluing tyson's genuine ability to intimidate and dominate people - and thats a rare thing in boxing honestly.

 

I would love for you to explain to me how much lesser fighters than the Klitschkos made it to the final bell against a prime Tyson.

 

sanders was a standup guy with speed and power that destroyed wlad and gave vitali hell the first rounds. mike's speed would make both klits look like they're fighting in slow motion. he'd counter them with bombs in the center of the ring or mug them on the ropes. against vitali he'd probably get wobbled and stunned with a klit uppercut, but he'd suck up the punch. mike's speed,power, and defense plus the use of his angles would offset the klits. he wouldn't give them time to think. he beats wlad by ko and vitali by split decision. 80's tyson was one of the best ever

 

Tyson would murder the current Vitali early. He doesn't have the necessary movement.
