Iron Mike Tyson vs. Wladimir Klitschko

[TysonBomb]

I was a huge Tyson fan! I think he would KO Wlad inside 5 rounds! I actually think Vitali would have a shot at beating him. I don't think Tyson could KO Vitali and over 12 rounds (if you look at success that Bonecrusher had at times and Tucker at points during their fight), Vitali may have a shot. Dunno

Listen to yourself Big H, Bone crusher did sweet FA all the fight except right at the end. James lost every round. Tucker landed one uppercut in the first round. That was it. You had to count the times Tyson was hit properly on one hand in his prime, it was that rare.

Fighting who though? His opposition was poor in the 80's. The best opponent he faced in his "prime" was an over the hill Larry Holmes. I'd have taken a prime Larry to outbox Tyson.

I can't decide who would win between Tyson and Wlad but Wlad now is far better than any of Tysons opposition in his so called prime. Wlad would certainly give Tyson plenty to think about and if he just tried rushing in all night there is certainly a danger he will end up eating a lot of jabs and being worn down and stopped.

If Tysons opposition was "poor" then what words describe glass jaw Wlad's competition Piss poor laughable and pathetic?? What does it mean when a C rated retired S African golfer who was around a 40-1 underdog can destroy him?

Spinks was an undefeated gold medalist and is lauded as one of the greatest LHW ever and Tyson annihilated him in 91 seconds. The man was coming off from three HUGE wins, two decisions over Holmes and a TKO victory over Cooney. Holmes was hardly over the hill or washed up, look at his record after Tyson and the names he has on his resume. Tyson was the only man to ever KO Holmes. Tony Tucker was also an excellent undefeated boxer with an excellent chin, great jab and was very athletic and mobile and at 6'5" he should've been able to keep Mike who was 6 inches shorter at bay with the jab yet he couldn't ... he even gave Lennox Lewis a hell of a fight even when he was past his prime. Lewis who is said to have a good resume has a bunch of Tyson left overs.

The fact that you can't decide destroys your credibility ... Tyson was a master at avoiding the jab and getting in range to get his punches off. Tyson would show no respect to him and if Wlad tries to actually fight with the man he's getting sent out on a stretcher within the first 30 seconds ... if Wlad decides to hold he lasts a little longer before Tyson crushes him. Tyson was able to out jab jabbers like Tony Tucker, he could probably out jab Wlad too.

If David Haye can dodge and avoid combinations from Wlad then what makes you think Iron Mike Tyson can't?? Tyson's defense and chin were first rate. It was hard to tag the guy with anything, even Larry Holmes who had the best jab ever couldn't keep Tyson away.

The only punch that Tyson was really vulnerable too was the uppercut, and Wlad doesn't have the punch in his arsenal.

If Tyson can KO guys that had never been KOed before like Pinklon Thomas, Tony Tubbs, and Larry Holmes what makes you think GLASS JAWED Wlad has a chance?? Tysons wins over a prime Razor Ruddock are easily greater than anything on Wlad's resume ... Ruddock was the most dangerous and feared heavyweight at the time and Tyson soundly defeated him in both fights and nearly ended his career ... he broke his jaw and ribs and Ruddock was never the same after that.
