Prime Tyson vs prime Vitali

[J.R]

well i voted Vitali by KO i can see Tyson's attack not getting anywhere him getting frustrated and doing something ******.

If an old and defensive Lewis can do this:


IMO.. Prime Tyson wins

Old and defensive, yes he was but Lennox is alot bigger than Mike. I think Vitali would take some decent gut shots and maybe a few uppercuts. But Vitali's never been knockd down so I have no reason to think that he would just get blown away by Tyson. I'm the biggest ****in Tyson fan in the world but I don't think he could've ever beat Vitali. The size differance is rediculous and I know size does'nt mean **** but Vitali's not a bum. Whats considered a prime Tyson? The Berbick fight?

people saying tyson beats vitali easy do they think marciano beats vitali to then surely they do.

[mitch12]

responds a guy who thinks Ali is overrated. Get off of this website with this bull! You obviously have no credibility. Vitali would not be able to handle the speed and lateral movement of a prime tyson. So what if Douglas beat Tyson in 90'. The Douglas that fought Tyson that night would have skull drug Vitali. Face it, Vitali is not an all time great and never will be. Period. Carry on!

well your a vitali hater end of

With Tyson's personality conflicts, personal problems and managerial difficulties (Don King) a prime Tyson is hard to pin down, its a matter of opinion but i'd say anywhere between bonecrusher in 87 to the 1st Holyfield fight in 96 give or take a fight or 2. When you think of it... In that time he didn't really beat anyone of any great stature.

[Abstraction]

What excactly has Tyson done that warrents him beating Vitali?

Youngest Champion, and got all belts after what? a decade? Dude did this before the brothers even went pro probably

That alone is more than Both Klitchko's put together.

Don't see any connection between being youngest champ and beating Vitali Klitschko (or anyone else for that matter).

Tyson would get a brutal beating, He would start fast but after taking Vitali's jab for 3-4 rounds Tyson loses heart, Vitali then floors him with a peach of a punch and Tyson decides to stay down.

yea if tyson was 38

yea if tyson was 38

Tyson was 23 when he met Buster. Vitali would beat him then, too.

Has anyone whos voting Tyson actually had to box someone with 6+in of height difference? I have and I dont think you understand how much pop you lose on your punch swinging at something over your head. Seriously try throwing an uppercut 9in over your head and tell me if you think it could KO anyone.
