    And you base that on what? His posts or his statement?

    And what has Haye done at heavyweight to be considered so highly?

    Past prime Holyfield and Tua are still alot better than old as **** Ruiz, Harrisson and Valuev.

    Especially when you consider he actually beat a Klitchko.

    All Haye has done is be British, therefore you numptys hype him to no end.

    Haye is better than Chris Byrd. Chris Byrd was dog****. He was under-sized. The man was smaller than Haye and totally ill-equipped against a 6'7 Bitchko.

    He lost badly to Ibeabuchi and got bailed out by punk ***** Quitali. Then Wlad dominated him. Why is that in any way impressive? At least Haye won his fights at HW.

    Holyfied was getting shut out and stopped by James Toney around the time Byrd beat him.
    Byrd was nothing at heavy..
    Golota beat and dropped him twice throwing pitter patter punches. The fact he's Wlads best win is laughable.

    Tyson has a superior resume by any definition.

    Both are great fighters but I rank Tyson higher h2h.

    Can't remember my.list off the top of my head but something like

    Ali
    Louis
    Lewis
    Holyfield
    Tyson
    Liston
    Foreman
    Frazier
    Holmes
    Bowe

    Something like that, I think that's the top ten anyways but I can't remember cos I'm away from my computer. Wlad is just outside my top ten and Vitali is further down.

    Tyson - the youngest HW champion of all time, undisputed HW champion, most exciting HW champion of all time.

    Wladimir - a great fighter, great HW champion

    Holyfield, Liston and Frazier are fighting for the final two spots, then.

    (Never was super impressed with Bowe, first fight with Holyfield notwithstanding)

    All wrong, Klitschko beats guys who are supposed to beat him but then loses to underdogs. So he beats all these guys.

    Great recipe indeed.

    You could use whole wheat flour & splenda if you're more health conscious, but that is a matter of preference.

    Does anyone know how Mel Gibson is doing these days?

    Yes, he did! Top fighters:

    * Berbick (who was an underdog against 18 year old Tyson, that's how horrible Berbick was)
    * Former LHW Spinks, took a dive. Awful fight.
    * A retired, 37 year old, fat version of Larry Holmes
    * Bruce Seldon, took worst dive in HW history. Awful fight.
    * The amazing James Smith (Yes, you've never heard of him)

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Tyson had the bigger names, Wlad has the more rounded resume as far as styles fought- he and Holyfield are practically the only HW champions that ever bothered to fight southpaws in title fights.

    I'm a big Tyson fan, but most of his opponents post-Douglas were the same big, stationary fighters with open defense he could tee off on. That lack of necessity is part of what led to Mike's skill erosion from his earlier days, which ultimately came back to bite him vs Evander and Lennox.

    Dude, don't get mad at me just because you could only manage a GED. I would have told you to stay in school and get that Special Ed High School diploma...
