Let's settle this once and for all: Prime Vitali vs Prime Tyson

you touched up on some really good points

 

If Tyson doesnt stop Vitali in the early rounds he has no chance. Vitali has an iron chin so it's not a forgone conclusion at all. Tyson's best wins are against a 40 year old Holmes and the "mythical" Razor Ruddock. Also Mike has lost most of his big fights and a couple against average fighters. James "The Perfect Storm" Douglas KOd him. Holyfield TKOd him. Lewis KOd him. Danny Williams KOd him. Kevin McBride KOd him. He's by no means the unbeatable fighter his fans make him out to be. I think Vitali stops him by TKO in the later rounds.

 

Tyson crushes both Klitschko brothers in the sameday. And as far as Iron chin goes, Tyson would Vitiali out the same way Shane Mosley knocked out Margarito.

 

come one if buster douglas could do it and end his career...

 

Tyson could fight big men and win,i think he would beat Vitalli in his prime but not easily,it would be a hard nights work.

 

Yeah! And Tyson could beat up Spiderman and Ironman and the Fantastic Four with one hand tied behind his back! Blindfolded!
Just not Buster Douglas :nut

 

Because those guys got in the ring only to survive.

Vitali has possibly the worst lateral movement of any heavyweight 'champion' I've ever seen. The guy would be there to hit all night long, and Tyson would find his target.

 

Valuev's lateral movement I'd say is even worse Tommy.

 

Fair point. :rofl

 

I can see you still haven't givin up yet. I can see that your on my dick though.

 

haha..Tyson is heavily favored over Vitali!!! I'd take Tyson by UD...either way though Tyson gonna win this fight!

 

Vitali beats little ol' Mike & KO's him late.

 

Lennox Lewis & Wladimir Klitschko beat Tyson as well.

 

Tyson got discouraged when he couldn't KO a guy early or bully him the entire fight, it took him out of his gameplan and he began to fight desperate resulting in him sitting idle for seconds at a time waiting to land violent flurries.
Vitali Klitschko has never been KO'd or bullied and always keeps his composure, wearing his opponents down with heavy combinations and finishing them when they have nothing left to offer. This is the very same fashion in which Tyson has lost all of his fights except for Lennox Lewis when he was schooled thoroughly then KO'd.
I'm sure Tyson would catch Klitschko early and shake him up but Vitali would perservere and slowly wear Tyson down, stopping him late.
