Mike Tyson Says He Would Beat Both Klitschko Brothers

Prime Mike KO's Wlad, UD's Vitali.

 

still think clinching would play a huge part in this fight

 

Tyson works so hard to get inside, then Wlad clinches him, ref separates them and he has to start all over again.

Wlad boring UD. Now if the ref actually penalises for clinching, Tyson KO.

 

Problem for Tyson is bridging the height differential, while Wladimir fights with a boring style in most of his fights, it's directly relevant to how much his opponent attempts to throw. I've often thought a key to beating Wlad is to bust to the body when he goes for the clinch, but anyone who tries that generally gets that big right hand coming down.

Prime Mike had a great chin, but is still susceptible to the type of heat the Klitschkos throw. It'd be an intriguing fight, I think Vitali in prime beats him solely due to both having similar durability and power, but Vitali having more options.

Wlad - tough one to call. Very tough one to call. In their primes (Wlad about 3 years ago) - Tyson only needs to land once to put Wlad on ***** street, but Wlad has become very effective at smothering fighters styles and stopping their productivity, something we saw much lesser fighters than Wlad have success with against Tyson.

 

A prime mike and a focused mike Tyson would be staying low bobbing and weaving ,coming up with 2 handed bombs ,Tyson would have known what he had to do when up close unlike most of the bros opponents ,early Tyson wasa student of the art ,and has power was devastating, I think he destroys WK early and catch up with vitali by round 5 before ko him. Tyson was 32 and 0 with 28 ko before buster bashed him up ,Any fight after that was a shot Tyson with no head movement ,and we for the money rather than the title . Still got the power . If he woke up tomorrow and had that will to fight ,hunger if you like,6 months training ,he give them a scrap today ,honest , HW div is so poor .

 

Youngest champ in history was a sight to see no doubt. I would take him over Wlad but not Vitali. Hope he can defeat the booze.
Slavic Power

 

He could catch Wlad.

Vitali UD's him.

 

He's right too Mike would demolish both robotic brothers

 

The Buster Douglas that beat Tyson in Tokyo would also beat both Klitschkos

 

Prime Tyson destroys them downstairs to the body.

 

You forget about the punches Buster took in order to beat Tyson. I doubt that Wladimir would be able to take those punches. Now Vitaly is a different task. Still think prime Tyson would beat him though.

Prime Tyson was magnificentt, he would KO Wlad, but he would have trouble with Vitali.

 

Vitali, would hurt Tyson. Too big, and too tough.

 

I think Tyson disposes of Wlad without much difficulty inside 5 rounds. Not just because of Wlad's lack of durability but because of his style.

Wlad is a jab and grab fighter when faced with an aggressive opponent like Tyson. His style relies on him landing first and then clinching to prevent any retaliation to win the round. Problem for Wlad is Tyson slips the jab very well and is faster and will beat him to the punch most of the time, meaning Wlad will just end up getting hit then clinching. Tyson will not allow him to get his shots off because of this. We saw how the superior speed of Jones Jr and Toney beat Ruiz's jab and grab style and how Hopkins also struggles with speed and being beaten to the punch.

Vitali is another matter. Vitali is even bigger and controls range better. I favour Vitali to win a close but clear decision.
