    Always felt Vitali's attitude towards the sport and maybe life in general is very important for his success. No way VK goes clubbing before a fight.

    Ulikely for Vit would to go to prison, but if he would he likely would be able to comeback stronger than Mike since he did come back after almost 4 years retirement caused by injuries. Also Iron Mike was 29 when he came back not 37 like Vitali and it was 3 years in prison not 5. Then again Mike's style was more physically demanding even though he had more power.

    Vitali was so long in the fight game that its hard to determine his peak not like with Mike. Amatuer boxing, amateur kickboxing, pro kickboxing turned pro late for all we know he could of been past it when he fought Byrd.

    Vitali was dominating Byrd for most of the fight despite injuring his shoulder in the second until he chose not to continue. Only credit u can give Byrd is that he didn't get ko'd by a one armed VK and u can't hope for Vitali to get cut by a grazing glove for blood to affect his vision allowing u to gain some momentum. Lennox wanted to rematch Mike, but ran scared from Vitali and an even bigger payday. In fact their fight originally was supposed to be a rematch against Mike.

    Don't think Vitali would have looked as impressive as Mike against same opponents due to him having less power than Mike. Also IMO Vitali is a bit of a slow starter he needs to figure u out a little before taking u on. Saw the Ribalta fight he looked scared and quit after Vitali started bringing it.



    Didn't Mike fight in his first carrier or at least the 80's with 8 ounce gloves? When did they switch to 10 ounce?

    Tyson did not stop Norris. Tyson was lucky that he did not get disqualified for hitting after the bell.

    One thing's for sure, he'd still get TKO6ed by Lewis.

    Worst.

    Because of the 'time line' followed, it will be akin to CURRENT Vitali vs 2002 Lewis. Probably tko4

    Klitschko v Lewis is a 49-51 in favour of Lewis.

    Klitschko defeats all of the others.

    (At the stage in their careers that they faced Tyson).

    you mean tyson.

    Prime for Prime I agree. He will only lose to Lewis.
    But if we go by Tyson's timeline, which is pretty interesting since he had some tough fights after his prime. I think it will be tough.

    A 2010 Vitali probably equals a 96 Tyson. I don't know if a 2010 Vitali could have beaten the version of Holyfield that destroyed Tyson.
