    Either...

    Listen, I am not saying Tyson wasn't a talent. Far from it, I just don't think anything he did stands him out from the crowd, other than becoming Champ a lot younger.

    I probably have a bee in my bonnet about Tyson more so than anybody else because 99% of uneducated fight fans consider him the GOAT, without knowing the first thing about his record. This just grinds on me.

    He did lose convincingly whenever he fought an ATG and also to some fighters who would never make a top 100 list.

    I'd pick Tyson over either of them without a second thought. Wlad would freeze, it'd be a few half-hearted jabs followed by clinches till Tyson caught him.
    Vitali imo is too robotic to cope with Tyson's head movement and speed. He's good at what he does, in fact both the brothers are but they can each only fight one way. Vitali I think would stay on his feet but be banged up like he was in the Lewis fight and be pulled out.

    People can criticise Tyson's comp all day long but he beat plenty of better fighters than either of the Klitschko's have.
