A young Mike Tyson in today's heavyweight division

[Dark Lord Al]

Personally he beats most , but i think Vitali would stop him in 6-8 , Tyson had no guts.

[JonesJrMayweather]

Today's division as it stands..both klits beat him quite easily. Haye goes to sleep.

[Master]

Tyson would beat them all but would get bored and run off with King and not train and get screwed by a woman and dumps his white managers and probably lose to Tyson Fury in Tokyo.

If a prime mike Tyson was around in today's heavyweight division then everyone and I repeat everyone is in a shit load of trouble. He gos thru them all, of corse wlad and vitali have the best shot a beating him, but I think Tyson knocks wlad the fukk out, and vitali, maybe a points win. of corse there's no such thing as a sure thing,but a prime mike Tyson beats them all IMO

Another misconception.

Just because he was so far superior to his peers, so much so that at the time he looked invincible, that his skills were so great he made quick and easy work of a whole division doesnt mean he had no guts. Its not Mikes fault he wasnt the 30 odd year old version of himself in the 80's, therefore being more on an even keel with everyone else.

Tony Tucker, Tony Tubbs, Pinklon Thomas and even a 38 year old Holmes would walk through todays division

I have to go with Tyson Ko-es all but Vitali. I think V Klit has some of the best boxing skills in a long time for being such a big puncher. Mike would have a lot of difficulty with a guy that can jab and throw a right hand downhill that hard. But 20-22 year-old Tyson Just don't blink or anything, you might miss the whole fight. Tyson Fury is just unbeatable.

Oh yeah, Mike Tyson was pretty good too I hear.

Tyson's resume is super weak..not hard to be that superior...

[cnote111]

I stand by the opinion of Tyson was extremely overrated... Most of his fights were won before the frist bell even rang... Once he lost his edge, that was it... I think he would have more trouble dealing with the Klits then whats being discussed so far, but overall i think he would be able to be top dog.


Man the HW div. sucks!!!

He'd have trouble with the Klitschko's , but he'd beat both I think. A prime Vitali beats and Prime Tyson though

A prime Vitali pussied out in a fight with Chris Byrd

He couldnt finish the show against an old Lennox Lewis! A young Mike Tyson would make quick work of him

Young, fit, conditioned and technically adept Tyson would bulldoze through today's heavyweight division like a Sherman tank through a cornfield.

He would do exactly what he did in the 80's ...... terrify everyone, blow people away like nobody before or since and revitalise the sport once again.

Young Mike Tyson was a fearsome proposition, an electrifying a performer as has ever stepped into the ring and I think he would have been competitive in any era.
