Well there you go then

The fighters today would beat most of the heavyweights of yesteryear, because of evolution, even the likes prime Tyson, would give up two stone to the monsters of today.

It is just common sense that a 215lb (5'7" to 5'11", depending on who you talk to) prime Tyson, just could not be excepted to come out on top of a battle with a 240lb 6'8" athlete like Wlad.

But of course Tyson at his best, was much the finer fighter, and damn sight more entertaining than Wlad; who is arguable the most exciting Heavyweight today.
