Prime Vitali Klitschko vs Prime Mike Tyson

Tyson knocks vitali out in the 8 round and then talks like a lispy ***git afterwards

totally agree, its a crap gif. youngsters these days, think gifs are everything. yeah these young'uns with their mobile telephones, interwebs and compact discs

yeah i might have been a bit too effusive in my praise. my point was the video someone posted showed sanders momentarily wobbling vitali and then getting beat in the end so was a pointless thing to post totally agree, its a crap gif. youngsters these days, think gifs are everything.

sure he can punch, but hes absolutely no way near one of the hardest hitters of all time, which is what your previos post claimed. yeah i might have been a bit too effusive in my praise. my point was the video someone posted showed sanders momentarily wobbling vitali and then getting beat in the end so was a pointless thing to post

Sanders was renowned for a hard dig. This is going to sound like a total lie but it's true.... Ernie Shavers was the doorman on my local pub in Liverpool and he'd sparred with him and said he was one of the hardest punchers he had encountered. also, look at the state of him...you dont get title shots looking like that unless you can bang! sure he can punch, but hes absolutely no way near one of the hardest hitters of all time, which is what your previos post claimed.

Sanders is not renowned as such at all. He is renowned because at 38, near retirement and finishd, he knocked the **** out of glass chinned wlad. If anyone else other than Klit had been holding the title then Sanders would probably not have even got a title shot. Sanders was renowned for a hard dig.

hard to say. noones ever but vitali on his arse let alone KO'd so it's hard to say if even a clean smack off tyson would finish him if it got to round 4/5 klit would be huge favourite also what people forget is tysons chin was suspect and vitali would probably be the hardest puncher he ever faced would be an interesting fight!

Wow! I am impressed. When one try to trash the boxer with gifs that usually means we'll see boxer being KO cold or brutally beaten. And this is the worst of vitali! WOW! http://www.supernature-forum.de/attachments/4518d1082910755-boxen-vitali-klitschko-vs-corrie-sanders-zdf-2004-04-25_18-26-43h-1.jpg

Not surprising even if this was a 50/50 fight according to most. Klitschkos will always get a lower amount of votes because many posters on this board hates their fans. simply not true, if we hated the Klits we'd vote them low, if we ahted the fans we wouldnt let it affect our appraisal of Klits. Its not a poll about their fans, its about the Klits, for which we reserve an accurate judgement based on their endless parade of defending against midgets, unfit fatboys and near fortysomethings, or a combo of as many of these attributes as possible.

I think I'll go with the young prime Tyson. He'd be one of few favoured to beat Vitali in a head to head fantasy fight. Tyson had the speed and he was difficult to hit.

Fair enough, I've heard that said before. Still though, the size difference is huge and not only that but Klitschko is not just big but good, with a great chin (Lennox uppercut) and can mix it up if it gets rough and he also fights behind the jab which makes it tough for a smaller man. Haye is much better than Valuev but if Nikolai was actually any good Haye would have had no chance, some people thought Valuev won anyway. That's the size difference we're looking at here with Tyson-Klitschko. the size is a question.......... but I've always been a firm believer of talent over size.......I believe that if a 5'2 fighter has enough talent he could pummel guys 4 times his height.

bruno was a strong fighter himself. tyson in 88 is where his prime ended. after 88 tyson fell out of his prime...... people don't understand that tyson was a very weird fighter. he was more powerful then he ever would be at the age of 17 to 20. his prime came very early.........(hints him being the youngest champion in heavyweight history) very weird fighter he was.......... i think he was so explosive fast & viscous that he wore his body out much faster then other fighters. people don't realize this when we're talking about the vitali vs tyson dream matches. they only look at A out of prime tyson.

Ifeel like Tyson is overrated and Vitali is underrated. Vitali is 6ft 7 with a lot of ability, Bruno was only 6'3 and he hurt Tyson in '89, if he could have followed it up, Mike was gone. Tyson is only 5'10, even Chisora is 6ft + It's obviously not all about height but I think Vitali is just too big.bruno was a strong fighter himself. tyson in 88 is where his prime ended. after 88 tyson fell out of his prime...... people don't understand that tyson was a very weird fighter. he was more powerful then he ever would be at the age of 17 to 20. his prime came very early.........(hints him being the youngest champion in heavyweight history) very weird fighter he was.......... i think he was so explosive fast & viscous that he wore his body out much faster then other fighters. people don't realize this when we're talking about the vitali vs tyson dream matches. they only look at A out of prime tyson.

tyson was better, but i think vitali might have been too big. but who knows! would be an awesome fight.

Vitali is like 10 years removed from his prime with several injuries. He's an old man. He's several years older than Mike was when he fought Kevin McBride http://www.boxnews.com.ua/photos/63/vitali-klitschko102.jpg we know that..........but vitali also took a long break. & apart from the lewis fight vitali hasn't been in many wars at all. it's hard to gage vitali against prime tyson because his competition is quite low. we've never seen vitali in with a guy thats bobbing his head & giving him body shots (apart from Chisora)

i don't think so.........people have a fresh memory of Chisoras bob and weeve style troubling big vitali. (along with his body attack) although vitalis not prime..........
