think a prime Tyson cira 1989 would beat him. especially if the ref didn't let klit get away with excessive holding.
For goodness sake...prime Mike 1987-8 walks through this guy. First time he connects its goodnight...(and it wouldn't take long).....a total 'no brainer' for me
Tyson gets inside and breaks him in half, thats if the referee stops Wlad from laying on and grabbing.
Klitschko would be absolutely petrified, and Tyson would launch an attack that makes Corrie Sanders' seem slow motion and tame in comparison. The fight would look like a pampered Alsatian that's had it's run of the street for a while running into a rabid, phenomenally strong Pit Bull Terrier. Brutal.
Hard to say, of course. I voted Tyson because of Wlad's past troubles with aggressive punchers. I mean, if Peters gave him all he could handle, just imagine what Tyson would do. On the other hand, there is the possibility that Wlad has improved drastically in this area, but he hasn't really been tested has he?
Last nights fight with Pulev looks unbelievably bad. Make that grainy black and white footage and we would laugh at how shitty the old timers were. The difference is that these guys are bigger, I suppose. But Tyson looked so, so much better.
It's a fight where the ref has to be fair if it's the type of ref that wlad has had in majority of his fights then who knows but if the ref decides it's a boxing contest and not a grabbing and laying on match then I'm strongly going for Tyson by nasty KO in 3 to 4 rounds
Wlad stops him late. He's not a stationary slugger for Tyson to tee off on, and I think the combination of the jab and Wlad's accuracy and timing with his other power shots will pick off and discourage Tyson. Of course, Mike's got a good shot at winning this, but he's got to get it done early while Wlad's cold to get the job done.
Agreed. Tyson wouldn't have an ounce of respect for Wlad, whilst woad would be scared to death of Mike. Imagine Mike coming full speed at Wlad? Wlad cant throw an uppercut, cant fight off the back foot, and Mike would overwhelm him with leaping hooks. Terrible style for Wlad.
I find it ironic fear is being brought up as a weakness for Wlad when Mike's the one with the bully mentality who crumbled when it didn't work his way and Wlad's shown the mental resolve and toughness to overcome adversity.
In my opinion w. klitschko is lucky because the north-american heavyweight boxing is down.I think this is the sin of the klitschko backround. Maybe some influental business men lick these klitschko sisters' ass. w. klitschko is long-time beltholder and the american heavyweight or british boxing is nowhere. Why? No Lewis, Tyson,Holyfield,Bowe,Holmes,Foreman,Ali etc. just pianeta,pulev,leapai,povetkin,wach,adamek,takam etc. type shits around.
