    Tyson by close decision.

    There's a reason the likes of Tucker and Smith went the distance with Tyson. As did the arguably fragile-chinned Ruddock.

    Vitali has good stamina, an iron chin and a will to match. He goes the distance with Tyson, but I feel Tyson would get the nod on points, could go either way obviously. But Tyson is not stopping Vitali.

    Tyson decision ... in and out counterpunch style ... Vitali not quick enough to land on the shorter faster man .... but Vitali is made of bricks so tyson would box his way to a decision ....

    Tyson KO's Vitali within 5 rounds.

    Here is why:

    1. Vitali keeps his hands low and skips around. Tyson was too fast for that.

    2. Tyson was very quick and agile, and would be inside Vitali's striking distance before Vitali could prevent it.

    3. Tyson was a master at slipping punches then countering with massive combos.


    I could see him slipping Vitalis jab, cutting inside, left hook to the body, left hook to the head, uppercut uppercut uppercut, Vitali snoozing n slobering on the canvas.

    If you want to see how that might really look, YouTube the Tyson KO of Julius Francis. That was the combo that put him down.

    Prime Tyson would steamroll the division right now, and probably any time in the past 100 years.

    Prime Tyson would rush Vitali, the lumber giant would not be able to get out of way. Tyson in 4 rds, and it would be easy.

    Tyson would eat his children! lmfao . . . Seriously, I agree with most peeps on here Tyson style was the perfect foil for both of the klit bros. I see him Knocking him out with in 5 rounds. That is nothing against VK he is a very solid fighter but he could not handle a prime tyson.

    Prime mike, the dude that beat berberick and Bone crusher (not the dude that beat Micheal Spinks) would defeat any Heavy weight. Had too much speed, confidence and KO power.

    I actually agree with this opinion the most.


    If Tyson wins it's by early stoppage because Mike was a quick starter, that's an understatement of course.

    If the fight goes past 3 or 4 rounds & Tyson gets frustrated, Vitali finds his range and pounds him out late in the fight.

    Of course Mike could have a mental breakdown & bite Vitali's nipple or ear like he did to McBride & Holyfield, and get the DQ.

    Chances are with the size, reflexes & sturdy chin Vitali weathers the early storm & Gets the TKO.

    I'm sure he meant fighters that were taller than the other opponents, not Mike himself.

    That's a pretty glowing review of Tyson & a harsh description of Vitali.

    Tyson ud. Vitali would find it very difficult to hit Tyson. He has no uppercut and no body punching and in comparison to Tyson he's very slow. The Rooney-trained version of Tyson who could still remember how to slip a punch wouldn't be there to be hit.
    Or to put it another way, Tyson was just much, much better-in every way.

    Surely you've mistaken Vitali for Wladimir.............no uppercut? Some of VK's jabs are like uppercuts since he throws them from so low. Let's not forget the uppercuts vs. Danny Williams..................
