    Prime Tyson would have destroyed that slow , face first plodder Vitali fought. Prime Tyson vs prime Lewis is a 50/50 fight imo.

    For Vitali to win here he'd have to keep Mike on the outside for all 12 rounds because he has no skills to deal with him in close.. I can't vision his pawing push jab and loopy right hand being enough to prevent Tyson from getting inside and working him over.
    Tyson got inside easily on guys with much better jabs than Vitali when he fought Thomas , Bruno and Holmes. He battered all 3 of them.

    There is nothing in Tucker's resume or on film to suggest he beats even a 2003 Lewis. What is he going to do exactly? In reall life Tucker and Bruno both lost to Lewis.

    Tucker was an underrtaed fighter who wasted his talent through drug abuse and did better against Lewis when he was cocked up and past his prime then he did against Tyson, and Bruno was schooling Lewis before he gased out and stopped and whilst that was a pre prime Lewis it was still a much better version then the badly out of shape washed up slow one Vitlai fought.

    But in reality he beat both of them and this was the pre-Stewart Lewis not the finished article. You try to say well Lewis was past it so its not the same Lewis but there really is no sign of decline in prior fights. Don't really see any signs of decline vs Tyson or in the Rahman rematch.

    M.Tyson was all wrong for both Kleichko brothers. And would destroy both. Both Kleichko brothers were stiffed legged, and backed up in a straight line. Stand straight up ( Typical European style) and were susceptible to right hooks. They both had slow but powerful jabs, that prime Tyson would slip and counter easily. Neither had a great chin, or will to win when in trouble. Prime Tyson would easily beat both.

    Surely the victory over Witherspoon is better than Peter or Sanders, but Vitali would give bonecrusher a beating and he would easily win to Tucker for points, do not forget that buster Douglas was winning him easy by points until he got tired or a gap mental came up , orlin Norris deserved to be given the victory and the fight with Mccall could have been a draw, it seems that Tucker was a phenomenon when he was a fighter of the bunch

    Is this competitive? Jerry Roth 117-111 | Harry Gibbs 116-112 | Mickey Vann 118-111 LOL
    Lewis won easily by points, while Vitali was winning on all three cards PLEASE
