I'm sure a guy named "TysonBomb" will set us all straight. Obviously you are an unbiased, critical thinker when it comes to evaluating Iron Mike Tyson.
I take back what I said about it being a toss-up. I've been rewatching several of Wlad's fights over the past few years and I say prime Wlad beats the shit out of prime Tyson. I don't even think it would be a close fight.
I give Wlad 8/10 wins, the 2 wins for Tyson being he lands a good haymaker.
I don't think Tyson lands with any consistency against Wlad, I think he gets eaten up with jabs and right hands like he did against Buster, and I think he possibly goes down in the later rounds.
If you Tyson marks want to believe he'd just go out and land some leaping left hook on Wlad, that's fine. Live in the fantasy. Wlad's reflexes, speed and footwork negates most of Tyson's offense and he gets eaten alive from the outside.
I love Mike and I always stand up for him when people dog his opposition, because I think he fought a solid variety of guys and really showed he is an all time great, but against either Klitschko he takes a MONUMENTAL beating.
