    tyson fought guys that were huge, his defense was good enough to overcome the tallness, vitali chin wont last with tyson i tell you that.

    vitali is a robot, mike tyson peek-a-boo, and awesome defense will be too much for the robot vitali.

    if not by ktfo tyson wins by UD

    Despite the height advantage Vitali has, there is a large difference in speed, skill, talent and even stamina, that all goes toward Tyson. Vitali really isn't very good, I mean he had a shot, out of shape Lewis in front of him and still lost, if he was any good, not only would he have won BUT he would've easily blew him out.

    A lot of people fail to realize that Tyson was a creation of great match making. Who did he beat? But at the same time the era that VK fights is weak.Im on the fence on this one :huh

    tyson would come at vitali bobbing and weaving extremely fast looking for blood and wrecking that granite chin. although vitali's jab is great, it only becomes really great when dealing with plodding targets like peter and one track come forward guys like arreola. mike tyson would be giving klitschko angles he's never seen, and his tenacity would beat klitschko, if not break him down completely. it would be a good fight because of vitali's size and chin, but tyson would eventually tko him on cuts or tko him as his body lays virtually lifeless on the ropes

    damn this is a very good/interesting match up but prime for prime i gotta go with Big Vit he has in my opinion one of the best H2H styles EVER at HW, i see him picking tyson apart with jabs for the first 4 rounds then the straight right starts to come down on tyson with a tko around 9 after tyson has took alot of punishment.

    honestly giving Vitali's clear advantages and his ring generalship i would even go as far as to say tyson only hits him good a few times throughout the fight and never comes close to cracking Vits chin.

    I like it how everybody says Lewis was out of shape :nut Lewis was very near his peak as a boxer, due to all the new things taught to him by Emmanuel Stewart. Both boxers took that fight on a short notice.

    And it's not like Vitali was blown out. If it weren't for the cut, he'd have beaten Lewis, but no excuses. He got cut, should have played safer, he lost.

    Still, you see... Lewis has an 84 inch reach... I think that's the reason why Vitali made it a war, simply because he was never going to take "bombshots" at Lewis from distance.

    With Tyson, it's Douglas all over again, only difference is that Vitali is a much better boxer than Douglas. He won't get hit anywhere near as much as Douglas. He'll keep distance, time Tyson whenever he tries to get inside. Vitali is the best heavyweight I've seen at keeping distance.

    Tyson, for all his aggression, is taylor made for a chess player like Vitali. Because he can be handled. He does get frustrated. And he doesn't last the 12 rounds. If you survive until the 6th, you have a good chance at beating him. Vitali, who has never actually gased in a fight, would fully take advantage of that. He'd KO Tyson inside 10.

    you dont really believe that do you? he WAS winning the fight and only lost on the cut.

    the cut isnt a proud victory the way the brit posters try to make it out to be, just because you cut me with your punch dosent mean your better or even if said punch was strong. all it says is that the leather on the glove awkwardly grazed the skin and/or Vaseline not being applied correctly. only a fool couldnt see Vit was winning the fight and obviously Lewis didnt think he could do better and tried to sue Tyson into a 2nd fight instead of the Vitali rematch. when the wbc make Klit His mandatory he retired the SAME WEEK. take that for what you will.

    i dot rate vitali very highly but he still beats tyson

    just by sheer mass and boxing skills , also he has a granite chin to combat the "inevitable" tyson punches that land

    You need to understand when you talk about prime Tyson your talking about a mythical phenomenon that is hard to bet against.
