Do you think Klitschko would beat Tyson?

Prime Tyson vs prime Wladimir Klitschko....I definitely pic Klitschko. Tyson would get worn down and if he managed to survive the full 12 rounds he would be a hurtin' unit. Wlad could keep him at range for extended periods and whenever Tyson gets in he would be tied up and Klitschko would put his weight on him tiring Mike out....And if Wlad lands a bomb on Tyson's chin he would crumble the same way Lennox and Buster made him crumble. Tyson has to expend way too much energy to score on a guy who's as big and defensively good as Wladimir. You guys are reverting to the ridiculous hysteria that the dumb boxing casuals fell for in the mid to late 80's. Buster Douglas knew better than to believe in that bullsheeit.

To beat Tyson, you need size, and be able to weather the storm. I think Wlad could weather the storm. The late great Cus D'mato even admitted that tyson's style was predicated on getting guys out of their early. After that, his head movement becomes less of a problem, he jabs less, he starts attacking in a straight line. IMHO Either Tyson knocks him out within three rounds or the fight drags on and Tyson gets K.O'd at about round 8-9.

Just to give an example..... Before http://i.cdn.turner.com/drp/nba/bulls/sites/default/files/jordan_1200_141022.jpg After http://brentbensonphotography.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/MJ.jpg How many years between pics ?

Lennox used the 1-2 and jab and grab technique against Tyson and it worked great. I think Wlad would beat him.

Tyson early ko.

I'm not sure anyone could beat late 80s Tyson. Opponents were scared sh*tless of him, and you never see that in seasoned pro fighters. That being said, I'd take a mid to late career Vitali to trade with him from the outside and get the better of the exchanges. Wlad's chin is just a bit too sketchy as much as I'm a Wlad fan. Killer Tyson will absolutely bob and weave his way inside and land some nasty shots. Prime for prime, Vitali probably would win. Wlad not so much.

You want to hear some sh*t? I got my balls broke to no end by my friends here in Philly when Holyfield first moved up to heavyweight from cruiserweight for suggesting he was on the juice. Everyone here thought I was crazy for saying it. I said did you see what this man has turned into? He went from cruiserweight to looking like a black Frankenstein. I felt the same way about Michael Jordan too. Definitely on the juice. He came into the nba skinny as a rail. Next thing you know, he bald and muscled out lol. Gotta watch these cats, man. Chasing that paper make you do some funny sh*t sometimes. Well, it's best not to argue with blind die hard fans who don't know any better, it can get out of hand sometimes, ex. Guy who stabbed his brother to death over the MayPac fight in West Philly. It shouldn't be taken too serious, it's just sports entertainment. Hmm, I don't know about Jordan being on the juice, I haven't heard anything about that. I'm not even sure if roids would make someone a better basketball player.

Tyson wins by knockout.

Holyfield wasn't a super heavyweight by any stretch. Holyfield stained his legacy with the juice, he's like the Barry Bonds of boxing.

lol.klit is 6'6 and can move and has a jab..lol he'd murk tyson by ud probably..maybe a boring fight

Honestly Wlad is to soft..Tyson would rough him up ..Wlad is not great at keeping distance and grabbing Tysons head would just open his body up for destruction. I don't see it larry, a jab and range can beat Mike, not that Im a fan of Klit I just think Mike was over rated against prime elite HWs, and a 6.5 elite guy with a great jab would give him hell, I don't even think Mike could beat prime Riddick Bowe.

I think he ko's wlad but vitali would probably beat him

Tyson only loses to the Super Heavyweights but in this case, with Wlad's chin being his Achilles heel, I think Tyson knocks him out.

Tyson would kill Wlads body..Wlad has never experienced body attacks like Tyson can deliver

Big guys that can box always gave Mike trouble he handled the gate keepers but an elite guy that's 6.5 , Id take Klit to do a Buster Douglas.

Wlads strategy could work for a while but Tyson is a absolute devastating puncher. And Wlad has been rocked and even lost to lesser fighters than Tyson. I can't see Wlad avoiding getting caught at some point.

Tyson would've knocked him out.
