    Lewis was handled by McCall and Rahman what makes him any diffrent from Wlad except the fact that Wlad has never been KO'd I like Lewis but Wlad and he are more alike than you let on

    then you go on to illustrate the point that Tyson couldn't outbox people only out punch them

    lastly you make light of the crime of **** that ruined Tyson's career...hmmm you sir are a true scholar and student of the sport

    Comparing those who KO'ed Klitschko to Buster Douglas?

    Interesting arguement.

    I'd say Buster Douglas career was one of unfullfilled promise. I mean, before he fought Tyson, he was TKO'ed by Lou Savarese for God's sakes! But in his fight with Tyson, he showed that he had the talent, the will, and the ability to be someone great.

    He didn't quite become great, but he became the ultimate underdog in KO'ing Tyson. I'd say his accomplishment outweighs that of Corrie Sanders, a fine southpaw puncher who fought some great ones with the Klitschkos and Rahman. But Douglas at best, he takes Sanders.

    Brewster would be a tough call, as he outlasted Wladmir, and would have some great moments against Liakhovich, Golota, Meehan, Kraniqi... I'd say Brewster would have a chance, but Douglas boxing skill as demonstrated on Tyson was far superior. That great Buster takes Brewster and Purrity as well.

    Is that so? Was that a prime Larry Holmes that Tyson fought? How about Spinks?

    Does Mike get extra credit for Lou Savarese or Carl "The Truth" Williams? Not exactly a resumé to write home about. Wins over the likes of Peter McNeeley & Steve Zouski don't impress much. Donovan "Razor" Rudduck would impress me but Lennox Lewis & Tommy Morrison KO'd him much easier IMO.

    I'll respect that argument, I would also say that Sanders would have a better chance against Douglas than he did against Wlad and I was never really sold on Brewster but there's no telling what a bruiser can accomplish

    Tyson has good wins over the likes of Bruno X2, Tucker, Holmes, Spinks, Ruddick X2,and others. All Wlad has is Byrd X2 and Peter. Tyson's Resume is better than Wlad's at the moment. He cleaned out the division in the 80's.

    Good, cause you seem to think Klitschko is some kind of God that would have handled a prime Tyson. That say's enough:-( We'll see if your singing this same tune when Haye puts Klitschko on his ass:D

    OK I thought you were stupid before but telling me that a Cruiserweight who hasn't beaten anyone in the top 50 will move up another 50lbs and KO a heavyweight champ is just special ed


    I'll reserve judgement till I see a man fight at this weight. We aren't talking welter weight +8 to go up here

    When did Wbogus become a legit title. Being Undisputed champ is clearly far more impressive.

    I hug no nut & swing no sack, I'm just stating the obvious facts when compared style to style. Tyson would have to get inside & take punishment on the way in. He was great doing that against mediocre competition but Wlad can box a bit no? Wlad is very powerful himself & about 7½" taller than Tyson. He also has the best jab in the division since Holmes..................
