    It's not really fair to throw Wlad in there just yet as he's currently in his prime, that being said I think he'd surprise a few of those guys and beat them....Riddick Bowe and Holyfield would have been the best options for him to beat. A Prime Tyson had a hell of a chin and power in both hands and was really quick but Wlad's jab could pose big problems to Iron Mike. Lewis is a guy he tries to emulate and it would be a chess match....Wlad had the better jab and Lewis had the better killer instinct.

    I'd say Lewis would come out on top more often than anyone else

    Prime for prime??


    1. Mike Tyson - I'm talking about 80's Tyson...... not 90's post prison Tyson. The loss of Cus D'Amato (who was basiclly Tyson's Dad and was without a doubt his mentor) absolutely destroyed "Iron," Mike.

    2. Riddick Bowe - Again.... we're talking about fighters when they were at their absolute peak. Riddick Bowe on his "A," game was damn near unbeatable.

    3. Wladmir Klitchko - He was very flawed a while back, but Manny polished out those flaws and turned Klitchko into a monster. When you have a guy that big that has been blessed with so many physical attributes, and turn him into one of the most technically sound heavyweights in ages..... then you have an all time great.

    4. Lennox Lewis - Another guy that was physically gifted but flawed......... until Manny got to him

    5. Evander Holyfield - Great fighter until he moved to heavyweight. Then when he hit heavyweight, he was just a bigger version of Arturo Gatti. Very exciting because his defensive plan was to just let guys punch him in the face, but ultimately..... he won a few big fights at HW but lost to far too many lackluster opponents.

    Tyson beats them but may loose to Holyfield and Lewis in the second fight
    Lewis may beat Tyson once but would loose to Holyfield at least once
    Bowe gets beat by the above butbeats the ones below at least once
    Holyfield was inconsistent but would give everyone a hard fight.
    Wlad not in the same league

    I agree

    if your going for consistency then lewis/holyfield will always get the vote. But tyson on his absoloute game was a vicious monster that probably would of had the likes of ali/louis/frazier etc eating canvas.

    You cant train to get that kind of power in your shots, its just a natural gift that fighters like tyson/jones jr etc are born with!
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    Wlad would annihilate the others easily.

    The only Heavyweight Champ who didn't eventually get destroyed by someone else is Rocky Marciano.

    Umm,wow .And exactly how many times does Gattis name come up when the topic of top ten all time Jr.Light/Lightweights surface... Holyfield backseated his boxing mind for pride at times but he was far more than a face first catcher but definatly has hung around far to long.Byrd,Donald & Toney were hard fights to watch....but Foreman,Tyson,Holmes,Lewis are hall of famers.
