Prime Tyson(85-91) Would Have Cleaned Today's Bum of a Division Out!

Tyson was never in the ring with such big guys who are know how to fight from the distance. Wladimir has big problems with counter punchers, but I think he is doing it a bit better against agressive boxers. The question would be if Tyson can get inside. If he can get inside he has a very good chance to knock Wladimir out in the early rounds. Tyson slowed down most times after round 4-6 and therefore I think he would have big problems with vitali.

The Klitschkos fight in an other way then tyson, but especially Vitali makes good fights when he has an opponent who is good and agressive enough (Lewis, Sanders)

 

A prime Tyson had such great head movement and used his smaller size to his advantage....coming in low under his opponents attack and using his stocky frame to unleash explosive power.

Although I think that past fighters do get romanticised...I'm certain that a prime Tyson K.O's Wlad in 3 rounds maximum.

 

The Tyson that spent most of his training camp banging whores and staying out late at night before he got smashed by an average HW like Buster Douglas? I dont think so.

 

Personally I don't blame King...Tyson was too weak mentally and allowed people to exploit him. These sorts of things should not be excused when considering a fighter and I don't think Tyson should blame anyone but himself for his demise.

 

You cant blame it all on King.


Tyson needs to admit he made his own mistakes.

 

The Tyson between 87 and 89, that two year period would have detroyed any HW out there in the history of the sport I agree.

That prime beats any other prime.

 

He KO's the current version of Wlad (even though I believe him to be something great right now). He may KO Lewis....We've seen that Rahman could KO Lewis. OR Lewis would KO him.
Vitali I'm on the fence about. Not to say Vitali is that much better than wlad, or lewis, but I think against Tyson....He's proved he can take a punch better than the other 2. The man has never been KOed, and as far as I know never been KDed either. Lewis hit him with the uppercut that should have knocked his head off his shoulders, and he walked through it.
Either Tyson KOs him, or Vitali puts the beat down on him.

 

tyson was the man,,, totally in shape and one of the most feared. Bottom line is that u will never know who wins. but wlads a ***** and vit is overratted. so i think a prime tyson would kill them all.

 

amen to that...his power will dominate the current batch of heavyweight...no offense meant...just my analysis too...:happy:happy:happy
