    Bonecrusher and Tucker both fought to survive, basically. Sure if VITLAY came in and hugged all night he could go 12 rounds but he doesn't fight like that, and that's what would get him into trouble here.

    I sense Tyson/Golota all over again with VITLAY quitting around the 4th round.

    Here we go again.

    People going overboard and jumping on a bandwagon after one fight. :roll:

    NEWS FLASH: Vitali beat Sam Peter, not Muhammad Ali. He has already beaten better opponents than Peter. Nothing has drastically changed.

    Yeah but the fact is that was his first fight in 4 years. It's got him back in hte public eye so threads like this will happen won't they?

    Stylistically this is a horror fight for Tyson.

    Vitali would stick that jab in Mike's face all night.

    I think Vitali would win a decision or stop Mike late.

    Tyson had nothing but troubles with big guys that fought big and tall.

    Whilst I disagree with the result you predict, you're 100% right in saying that Tyson had major trouble with big guys that fought big and tall.

    Of course, people want to ignore that fact for whatever reason. Generally because they are ******s.

    The height advantage would give Tyson trouble but once Tyson would get inside, its over.

    He had no probs reaching the chins of some of his opponents that were 6'5...so 6'7 is hardly out of reach.

    Would def be an exciting fight with punches being thrown with mean intentions. So hard to even attempt to pick the winner because each would've been fully prepared and had a strategy...Each has advantages and it would probably simply come down to who happened to make the more serious mistake. I also think there'd be a fair share of caution/respect so it might even take a little longer then normal to get this one going... I don't think it would be the instant war that Tyson-Rudduck or Vitali-Lewis was but then again, who knows with these two warriors...They might just come out swinging for the fences...Would've been an amazing fight and imagine the staredown!

    funny how when talking about tyson you always have to refer to which year tyson you are talking about, because he was never the same man from year to the next.
    v.klitschko by KO late, tyson would not be able to put v.klitschko away early become discouraged, lose confidense, lose interest and then lose focus. sure there would be some infights but v.klitschko is not some early 80's out of shape slob you can bully and push around inside. a few rounds of holding up a 250lb v.klitschko and getting repeatedly punched hard in the face...and done.

    v.klitschko doesn't have a killer instinct? get a clue.

    Vitali's style is not the best for a man of his size. I think it gives him more power but he is there to be hit. If Vtali has a chin I'd go Tyson 10-2. If he don't Tyson by mid round KO.
