    Yeah it did, Also Holyfield robbed us too.
    If he had fallen down (like he was supposed to) we would have seen Tyson vs the Moorers, Tuas, Morrisons, Bowes etc

    This version of Tyson would get clobbered by both Vitali and Wlad. They are both too big and hit too hard for him. I don't even know if a young Tyson could handle them; probably not Vitali but perhaps Wlad.

  5. i do not c how Vitali even compared to evander .
    evander , is way moar proven then vitali ,
    and always did fight 1 better crop of heavies then vitali.
    in 1 "H2H",
    matchup, i wud give Evander 1 edge in 1 incredible fight .

    Both Klitschko's mop the floor with this faded Tyson.

    Too slow, too predictable, no more body shots, and too damn short.

    Tyson has said kind words about Klitchko's. Tyson '86 demolishes them in a few rounds but the '96 stops Vlad in 5 but is taken 12 by Vitali and wins a decision (8-4, 8-4, 7-5 in rds) after dominating the first half. Vitali fights too cautiously and survives early, then doesn't pressure enough to foorce a stoppage on a gassing Mike.
