Tyson VS Vitali Klitschko

[FistoftheDallasStar]

Prime Tyson would win by 6th round KO. Tyson would look like a dwarf compared to Vatali, nothing new to Tyson. Vatali is comparable to a prime Frank Bruno (no disrespect to Klitschko fans). He is a tough guy that lacks the equipment necessary to beat Tyson. The main factor would be Tyson's speed, it threw off many fighters in his hey day. Mike could easily duck under a bigger mans jab and counter with KO accuracy. It was so good his opponents didn't know where the punches were coming from. The punches you don't see are usually the KO ones. We all saw how Vitali's face got beat up by an out of shape Lennox Lewis. His (Vitali) career defining moment was a loss. Tyson rips into him with hooks and uppercuts and either cuts him open or permanently retires him by the loss of consciousness. Side note: Vatali is a good fighter at a time when the Heavyweight division is full of mediocre fighters.

P.S. Tyson's mental prime ended after Mickey Rooney, a disciple of Custamato, was fired as his trainer. Tyson's physical prime ended the day he went to prison for rape.

Size mismatch

6'7 vs 5'11

Tyson was an overrated mental midget with no heart. Prime Tyson got outboxed and KTFO by Buster "The Bum" Douglas.

Vitali would keep the smaller Tyson at bay with his superior long jab and pick him apart with lead left hooks, uppercuts and big right hands....The mental midget Tyson would get frustrated and discouraged when he realizes he can't intimidate or hurt the iron chinned 6'7 monster Vitali....Tyson gets beat up bad and either quits or gets KO'd by Vitali.

Hahahahahahahhahaha

Bruno was abot 5 inches shorter, had no killer instinct and a glass jaw, and he nearly Ko'd tyson, but inexplicably allowed him to recover. Vitali would have finished the job

Vitali by KO

ROFL!

I agree by the way.

They expected Tyson to blow Douglas out in 2 rounds or less. Everybody did. The last thing they were worried about was Tyson getting cut or swellling, or the fight even making it into the 3rd.

thats because his training staff was not the same as it was when he was in his prime. even after the spinks fight, his wins over bruno and williams weren't as impressive because his training and conditioning had drastically changed after Rooney got fired.

Tyson's head movement and conditioning to maintain his relentless aggression had fallen off quite noticeably. His wins over Bruno and Williams were only because he still had his raw physical abilities but as soon as that muscle memory, knowledge, conditioning and discipline that he obtained from Rooney had faded, so did tyson.

I stopped reading when you said "Vitali is comparable to a prime Bruno"

You're obviously a complete moron

Vitali has an iron chin, never been down

Bruno was a glass chinned bum

Vitali would destroy Bruno

Look, I know Tyson was something to behold when his head was on straight and everything was going his way, but the first time he got hit with some serious adversity, he crumbled, and never recovered...both professionally and personally. And Vitali would've been a bigger dose of adversity than 3 Tysons could've dealt with.

No way he would've stood even a 1% chance against Vitali, any day, any time, any where.

You know advertisers tried to buy space on the bottom of Bruno's shoes because they were on display so much?

[RightCross94]

Tyson was always fit, but look what happened during the Douglas fight, they didn't even have the proper cut equipment. They were using a balloon filled with water to reduce Tyson's swelling, that should tell you how prepared they were for Douglas.

so...doesnt change the fact douglas whooped his ass

[D-MiZe]

There are some guys here who have a serious ****ing crush on Tyson to be saying some of the **** I see in this thread. Holy ****.

Tyson gets a thorough beat down by Vitali somewhere between the 5th and the 8th, having never landed a clean punch.

Come on, you guys don't seriously think that Tyson, the same guy that was humiliated by BUSTER DOUGLAS would've beaten any version of Vitali Klitchko, do you?

I suggest you go watch his new documentary...
