Tyson best win was a 38 year old Holmes who did not fight for years, Spinks great lhw, Bruno good but lost most big fights and Rudock who came up short in all title fights. I would not say Tyson beat way better guys there better not by much though the 80's was about as bad as it is now. Vitali i think is just a really bad style for Tyson not even saying he is better Vitali just plain bad match up when it comes to the size and style they had.
Vitali was slow as Bruno and Tyson never had a problem with robotic fighters. Tyson would hit them with ease and move away before he received anything back.
Bruno had a shit chin and also did not know what to do when he got hurt also would gas in his fights. Vitali is bigger, steel chin, gas tank for days and better at using his size. Vitali to me has never really had a fight were he was getting outclassed some reason being his opponents and others being because how the fights were stopped when he did lose. I am about 60 percent on the side of Vitali winning not mention he was great at defending his body.
