Klitschko - Tyson

Vs Lennox not 2 bad , he just got cut which happens but wasn't floored or overwhelmed .
Vs Byrd he missed till his shoulder went out , due 2 Byrd's defensive ability .
But r u going 2 answer my question ? which great fighters did Tyson beat ?

 

I would always favor Tyson over either Klitschko, but he'd have to be at his very best to overcome the size differences of those two men. The Tyson from Douglas onward probably wouldn't prevail.. It would take the version of the man who beat Berbick up to perhaps the Spinks fight.. While Tyson is leagues better than those two on a p4p basis and size not being everything, in this case it could pose a problem. Both Klits were bigger and better fighters than Tony Tucker, James Smith, Razor Ruddock and Buster Douglas who either took him the distance or beat him. Its not like he'd be fighting a 6'7" 240 lbs journeyman with no skills and zero athleticiscm.. That's why its so important not to completely dismiss size when looking at these matchups. That said, Tyson from 1986-1988, with Kevin Rooney in his corner, in top shape and utilizing his full arsenal of skills and determination would probably outwork both men to late stoppages or maybe a close decision in one of those fights.. Anytime beyond 1989 however, and he'd probably need a lucky shot to pull it off..

 

Not too much wrong with '89 Tyson IMO. KOed both Bruno and Williams in the most inactive year of his first career. In fact, anytime from 1986-91 Tyson was extremely dangerous. Even in the fight in which he got his ass beat, he managed to floor his opponent with an uppercut. I didn't see him going full fledged standing up, homerun hitter until after Douglas and even then, it happened in increments. Tyson of 1989-91 wasn't the fighter he was in the four-year span prior, but most would attest he was vastly superior to 1995-97, which was still a championship-level fighter.

 

Yes, look at both mens feet. They are on the level and Tyson heels are clearly off the ground. Or, even better - look at TS video.

 

Tyson is all wrong for WK, you can bet the house on it, don't get me wrong I have no hatred for WK but he is going to sleep against Mike, prettyy early too.

VK would be a tough fight and Tyson has to be at his best mentally and train accordingly, solid UD would be my pick but if he takes it lightly all bets are off.

 

Are you a spastic? His head will be comparable to like 9-10 inches. I'm 6'4 and my head is about that long. He's bigger, so I'm guessing his is bigger. He'll be a head taller, like the picture shows.



Spastic.

 

You said "over a head"

 

These are my thoughts as well. The one thing Tyson has going for him is his body attack and size really can't prevent your ribs from getting caved in if your opponent gets inside and unleashes vicious body punches. I think Tyson could find away to beat Wlad, but I'm less sure about Vitali, he strikes me as more durable.

 

I've just realised how utterly rife with homosexual tension this post looks. It's absolutely blatant as well.

'9-10 inches' ' head' 'long' 'he's bigger'

No one is safe from the homoerotic undertones in any conversation about a Klitschko!

 

I think Tyson could get to Wlad's chin. I think Vitali beats Tyson.

 

Tyrell Biggs. Guess you never saw that one. Biggs was also pretty tall.
