    Based on the Ruddock fight, I have to disagree.

    Dinovelvet, there is no way Tyson would have landed those shots on the Klits. Secondly, Vitali would not have dropped to his back with his chin. Smith was on the backfoot yes. But Tucker boxed and he was simply a manufactured Don King contender.

    Vitali has his jab down very low at times thats suicide against Tyson. Wladimir will be rushed and that will be the end of the fight,he'll have a very hard time..Tyson KO Wlad R3 Vit R5

    I have never seen the fight and once again you are trying to impugn the man's character after all the good he has done. and it's kickboxing so you are really grasping at straws and your desperation reeks. Whatcha got pal?

    SP you are NUTS if you think Tyson beats the Klits. Vit holds his hands low but he would see the little guys punches a mile away. He has great reflexes, that was part of his defense. Tyson would have been a bloody mess against either Klit. Foreman is a different story.
