Unlike some of his fights in the past like Lewis and Douglas, Mike will not fool in the gym when preparing for Vitali. He will be in the gym everyday bustin his butt and he would be in shape and fully prepared for Vitali.
Mike would get beat if he trained his ass off everyday anyways. I love Mike, but this isn't the prime one anymore.
Gotta Go with the Big fella on this 1. Mike's not dedicated enough and he's RUSTY as hell. He's only a 3 to 4 round fighter.....Take him into round 5 ( if your lucky ) then you pretty much have yourself a punching bag. After Round 4, he's only got a puncher's chance to win. -SLIM to None-
Now if your talking prime vs. prime..... I don't think you have to be a genius to figure it out. TYSON's speed would have been the deciding factor,let alone his Freakish power. TYSON KO3
hmm
Man...Tyson fans crack me up. I like the man too but Vitali will kick his ass. Vitali is in his prime and he is the champ, period. Tyson will get his ass handled if they fight today, I don't care how hard Tyson trains.
I am a white person and was really insulted by a comment made earlier in this thread so i think this will be my last post, id like to thank the folks at boxing scene for helping kill some boredom in the evenings, i would also like to thank the posters in this forum, again thank you and best of luck with the rest of your lives and hopefully we might meet again in another forum, thank you, lets hope racism will never affect me again like it has on this day. Thanks and god bless.
Oh, don't be such a baby. Suck it up and argue your point(s) like a man, you'll feel better about yourself for it :)
Tyson has not shown anything of recent that indicates he could beat Vitali right now...
as much as I like Mike...at this stage from what we have seen, it would be a Vitali/Sanders/Wiliams like beatdown...
we are ALL always hopeful for Mike just because he IS Mike...but in the end...he is no the late 80s or even early-mid 90's Mike
I don't like Mike against Vitali at all. I grew up with Mike and find it difficult to admit, but Mike gets knocked out. Even against a no mark like Vitali. The 80's were a long time ago...
i dont think tyson can reach his chin literally he might have to hop a little and i know tyson has power but how many times has klitschko been KO'd or knocked down? i love mike i grew up watchign him but even a prime mike would have a little trouble with VK only because he is so tall would i pick a prime tyson over VK? of course. will tyson whoop him in 1 round no way.
My vote is for Vitali Klitschko. Now Mike Tyson can't beat him, is an old boxeur, haven't a good mobility and isn't a man who can endure fatigue. In the 1980-1990 "Iron" could destroy the ucrainian.
Mike has a chance because of his power but its a long shot. If he wins its by a stunning first round ko and Vitali doesnt even no he is a fight. Otherwise Mike gets a long beating before going down.
You people who pick Tyson honestly need your head examined. The guy has lost like 5 of his last 7 fights...or something like that. Tyson would get beat pretty much the same way he did against Lennox Lewis.
i pick Mike...
vitali can't stand the pressure and Tyson will just keep comin forward
i'd like to see that leapin right hook from Tyson to get to vitali
