    They were tomato cans when confronted with Tyson. If you want to see real tomato cans watch the top heavyweights of today. I don't remember a cruiserweight being ranked #1 at heavyweight and getting an immediate title shot for trash talking on youtube back then.

    Isn't it ironic that a Klit fan would bring up a topic like this, lmao. If Wlad would've tried that ish that he did with Povetkin, he would've got murdered by Mike.

    :huh

    Weren't people whining and crying on here because Wlad did the same thing to Povetkin? Why is it OK for Tyson to do it and not Wlad?

    Bone Crusher was better than Chisora. He actually won a piece of the title. Clinching is one thing, winning is another.

    Tyson did what, clinch? Tyson wasn't doing the excessive clinching in that fight.

    What does Bonecrusher have that Wlad lacks? An UPPERCUT. There is absolutely no deterent for Tyson on the way in outside of Wlad's straight punching.

    Tyson would constantly lean to his left on the inside, and bang left hooks to Wlad's body until eventually he goes upstairs and has Wlad crawling around the ring, picking up the pieces of his life.

    Um, no. Pushing Bonecrusher around roughing him up.

    And yes, Tyson was willing to clinch it is covered in this unreleased documentary owned by Steve Lott

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8jxmiXonfQ

    They call it Tyson's 'silent agreement' and how he was willing to clinch in fights maybe you should take time out and watch it the Bonecrusher fight is covered in it.

    Big difference was Tyson was he one being clinched so he pushed Bonecrusher off him which is fine because it was Bonecrusher who was infringing upon the rules.

    Wlad was the one illegally clinching as well as pushing.

    You need to watch the documentary above Tyson also initiated clinches in several fights and was content to do just that. Video evidence along with commentary is provided. :good

    Bonecrusher was a World Champion heavyweight, not the best I grant you, but he still Won the title, he also KOed Frank Bruno (a future WC who beat McCall, who once beat Lennox), not many fighters can say that.

    No heavyweight champion of the World can be called a bum.

    I'm not a troll, I just saw these guys fight, you obviously did not, todays HW scene is **** poor.

    The Klits would have been destroyed in the 80's.
