    Lennox was all over him like an Octopus when he got close. Where have we heard that before? :huh

    Botha Tyson stands out. If only because it was one of the dirtiest fights i've seen. Also Botha was disrespecting and taunting a guy who would have destroyed him a decade earlier. Then Tyson lands that nice overhand right flush on his chin

    That right that Tyson landed even though he was past it fighter was just satisfiying, especially the sound.

    So do you just sit at your computer and lie to yourself? Or what's the deal Joe?

    You and I both know you know Wlad fought the shot versions of all those fighters.

    If you honestly think Mercer-Botha-Rahman were anywhere near prime when they fought Wlad. you need to check yourself in to a hospital.


    You also forgot to mention Nate Tubbs threw and landed on a 100% connect ratio against Corrie Sanders and brutally ktfo out the Prime Version of Sanders.

    Sanders meanwhile shot and years later end up with a 90% connect ratio against Wlad and ktfo out of Wlad...............

    Tubbs was also a Tua victim.. who did not win more than 10 seconds against Lewis.

    Maybe Tyson, but Morrer got the best version of Botha. The Botha that Wlad beat was already fading
