Prime Mike Tyson would have cleaned out the current heavyweight division in 2 years.

Besides Vitali and Wlad i reckon Mike could probally beat the rest of the guys in the division. Would be quite interesting actually to see how the likes of Gomez, Chambers and Adamek would do against him.

 

Also, Vitali and Wlad would be horrible match ups for Tyson, i honestly cant even imagine them being competetive fights. He'd have the obvious 'punchers chance' against Wlad though

 

I agree with mr applebee. Both bros are better then anyone tyson fought except maybe evander and lewis.

 

Yeah, people forget how mediocre the HWs were when Tyson came around. The 80s, overall, was almost as weak as the current era. And yes, the Klits ARE better than anyone Tyson faced outside of Holyfield and Lewis. You could include Larry Holmes too, IF he hadn't been inactive and was in top condition. But that wasn't the case.

Most of the guys Tyson faced were ordinary and were typically already beaten before the fight began. People saw what happened when fighters stood up to him.

 

still one of the most impressive looking heavyweights I have ever witnessed, and a very young heavyweight at that time.

 

Watch Tyson Vs Biggs if you think Tyson has just a punchers chance against WK

 

Log out.

 

Not if Sugar Joe was around. Had he decided to venture up to HW, I'm certain he would've given all the greats a run for their money, if not stop them early, as he was known to do, in his prime.

Sugar Joe.

:smoke

 

Wasnt Sugar Joe on his a$$ in the first round against 2 of the best fighters he fought? (Both happened to be over 40 as well)

More like Sugar Free Joe
:smoke

 

So true

After what I witnessed Saturday I have to agree.

Prime Tyson would have cleansed the division and destroyed every opponent inside 6 rounds.

Wlad would have been brutally violated inside 3 rounds, and Haye doesn't last 60 seconds.

Not even a fan of Tyson, but its the truth. These bums Klitschko take to later rounds would have already been on their way to A & E.

 

Yeah because guys like Arreola, Haye, Dimentrinko are so tough....:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Tyson would probably lose to the Klits but he would steam roll the rest.

 

Tyson would steamroll every single heavyweight out there today. Sorry, but a 40 year old slowed-down Vitali wouldn't stand a snowball's chance in hell.
