He certainly did. I don't see wlad koin Larry Holmes that fast and devastatingly. I don't see him striking fear in to experienced men like spinks and can't see him dropping Berbick three times with one shot. Wlad just wasn't that type of explosive hitter like Tyson. The people watching Tyson and wlad would rather see iron mike any day.
Tyson was in seek and destroy mode, Wlad especially under the tutelage of Steward was a safety first fighter.
Yep, he said wlad hits harder but Tyson s more explosive and dangerous, and he'd rather watch Tyson fight any day.. And said say Hi to Wass from him..
So there we have it, Joshua took the best shots of the harder hitting Wlad and knocked him out. He takes the lighter hitting Tyson's best shots and knocks him out before the 10th round.
Yere I get that. It may have had some thing to do with the losses he suffered before steward. I don't think it would have worked with Tyson, a safety first style. How Tyson fought, more so early on was perfect for his strength s and weaknesses. But for wlad, the opposite style was his strength.
Tyson would be all over Joshua like a rash, his hand speed would crucify AJ. If Tyson had AJ in his pyjamas and ready for bed like Wlad did, he would have finished it.
But we have to count on Josh surviving the first five rounds at least, because Tyson s not a feather fist, so he could hurt him more quickly. Joshua s chances grow the later this fight goes on. And we are talking prime young Tyson.
You're forgetting one little thing, Joshua would be meeting him head on with his own deadly shots. If Tony Tucker can catch Tyson early with an uppercut and knock him on his back foot Joshua would decapitate the poor fcuker.
We also have to count on Tyson surviving the early onslaught from Joshua, Tyson never fought anyone like Joshua during his reign.
If Dillian Whyte can-------. Joshua is a work in progress,. Tyson is the proven article ,at this stage of his development Razor Ruddock would give AJ life and death.
AJ has proven he can take shots, get dropped and comeback and win. Tyson fell apart as soon as he was not dominating. Tyson was the proven article until he met Buster Douglas? Joshua is work in progress but just best one of the most dominant HW's of all time. Razor Ruddock would be wiped out just like he was against Lewis, AJ would be a nightmare for him.
AJ went life and death with a 41years old boxer he still has questions to answer. Can he cope with movement? Can he handle speed? We don't know yet. Tyson beat boxers, brawlers, boxer punchers,and sluggers. This myth that Tyson was just a bully without heart, an on top fighter,is lazy and inaccurate , he took monster shots from Razor , when down in a fight he was till trying to put his mouthpiece in to continue . I'm not going to get into a debate with you about him because I don't think you are capable of being objective on the subject.
