    I think it would be more similiar to the first Brewster fight than the big left cross bombing Sanders. If Tyson can slip Wlad as easily as he slipped Golota, he certainly has a chance of blitzing him out sooner than later. But I wouldn't be surprised if Mike takes a few licks in this one. Wlad would never quit like Golota.

    So therefore you'd consider Danny Williams and Kevin McBride better than Wladimir Klitschko.........? :huh I don't rate Wlad or his brother that much,when it comes to all time great heavies,but they're streets ahead of Tyson's last two opponents,and the best big men since Lennox retired.

    I'm not sure Wlad takes the punishment Williams took early on. At this time Wlad lost to Brewster, who lost to Ettiene, who Tyson blew out in 30seconds

    Brewster blew out his knees in the first around against Ettiene.

    I don't think you could make a case for Williams being that much more durable than Wlad, more stoppage losses to lesser punchers. Tyson was a physical mess in those last few fights, he could still take a beating but his heart just wasn't in it, Brewster was a determined durable prime athlete who walked through 4 rounds of severe punishment.

    Williams was a prodigy who blew hot and cold but he really raised his game against Tyson, took a hell of a beating again Vitali too before being stopped. Tyson looked pretty good early against Williams before he also popped his knee

    Still given the mental instability of Wlad after Sanders and his susceptable defense before Sanders I really don't fancy his chances against even a near shot Tyson.

    -No, Williams caught a good break when an overweight Tyson blew his knee out. He didn't raise his game by any means.

    -Yeah, I bet Wlad thanks god everynight that Williams and McBride was there to put an end to the SHOT Tyson train than. :lol:

    Williams took allot of punishment before Tyson blew his knee, Wlad has never taken that type of punishment without losing. Wlad was also suffering from panic attacks whenever he stepped in with a puncher after Sanders - see Brewster/Peter. Even a shot Tyson is far better than both of those men

    Wlad was lucky he got a very easy ride to the top, without facing many of the killers from the late 90s/early 00s, still he has 2 KO losses and clearly doesn't match up well against pressure fighters and punchers

    Not sure why you're bringing up the Mcbride fight which happened a year after the period I'm talking about

    Quite a few, do you have a problem with that?
    Since you don't like Tyson, i'll use Lennox as an example of the multiple versions theory:


    Very Green ('89 Malcolm to '90 Chanet) - 14 fights.

    Green ('91 Mason to '94 McCall) - 12 fights.

    Prime, but Pre-Peak, Stewart version ('95 Butler to '96 Mercer) - 4 fights.

    Peak ('97 McCall II to '00 Tua) - 10 fights.

    Past-Prime, unmotivated, undertrained & overconfident ('01 Rahman)

    Past-Prime, motivated & well conditioned ('01 Rahman II to '02 Tyson) - 2 fights.

    Badly Past-Prime, unmotivated, flabby & undertrained ('03 Vitali)

    -Wlad wouldn't be taking that punishment...he's more than a few tiers ahead of a crude slugger like Williams.

    -I didn't see an panic attacks. I saw him gas against Brewster and get clocked into the ropes while he was laying on him and gasping for air.

    -No, an overweight, ill trained, injury prone Tyson is not better than fit alphabet Champions that can absorb sustained beatings.

    -Wlad most certianly did not have an easy ride to the top...I can't say the same for his brother however.

    -The McBride fight was in 2004. You dropped that year.

    1. Wlad pre-2006 was getting knocked down very frequently by fighters not. He didn't have a great defense at this stage and would get hit. I also don't think Williams is simply a 'crude slugger'

    2. Wlad had a panic attack against Brewster, thats why he gassed, thats why he held so much. No it wasn't a drugging, the vaseline (which Wlad sacked his cutman for :patsch), or an intense body beating from Brewster, it was a panic attack. Against Peter he also fought a little scared but with more confidence. Wlad doesn't have the composure of his elder brother.

    Factlet: Did you know Wlad/Steward had to remove Vitali from camp because Vitali was being so negative about him losing to Sam Peter?

    3. Tyson wasn't nearly as fat and innactive as Sanders who isn't fit to carry hit jock strap. He also has more skill in his little finger than Brewster had in his little body

    4. I don't remember Wlad facing Lennox, Ibeabuchi, Tyson, Holyfield, Tua, Sanders Rematch, Golota, Toney. His competition isn't bad but it isn't a hard road to the top fighting the best available opposition by any mean. Vitali fought Lennox and 2 men that ko'd Wlad, how is that easy?

    5. No, McBride was in 2005. That Tyson looked far worse than the 2004/2003 versions. Tyson's condition looked pretty impressive in 03 back down to a ripped 225lbs
