Does wlad now possess a tyson type aura?

[WladIsTheChamp]

lol at this thread, wlad is a decent heavy at best, got taken out in his prime by 3 average heavies and ran off without rematching them

what a joke of a thread

He rematched Brewster you idiot, and Lewis was sparked out cold by 2 average HWs although to his credit he beat everyone of them in a rematch, but since we are talking about Tyson he NEVER remtached even ONE loss. Are you telling me couldn't rematch Buster? Tyson is overrated for sure, the guy quit against a journeyman in McBride, got whooped by regional fighter like Danny Williams, and got KOd by a one-hit wonder mediocre Buster Douglas in his prime.

No one was afraid to actually get in the ring with Tyson, whereas the Klitschkios can't get anyone to fight them for millions of dollars.

[WladIsTheChamp]

I understand the argument here, but Tyson's aura was one of "Oh sh**, this guy is going to kill me, please don't hurt me."

Wlad's isn't anything like that, it's more of a prolonged dejection as you go into the fight thinking "just touch that chin" and realize how hard it is to do so.

Well how come so many fighters are avoiding the Klitschkos and I can't think of one example where they avoided Tyson?

Because the Klitschkos have beaten everyone with any balls to step in the ring with them. Their era of dominance has lasted to the point there are no more legit contenders, and the one or two guys who might fill that role won't.

In other words, heavyweights today are *****es.

I dont see it. Im a big fan of both guys, but Tyson had you beat before you even signed the contract. I think alot of the guys fighting Wlad go into the fight thinking he is soft which gives them a chance. It isnt until a round or two in that they realise what they are up against.

You are missing all of the earlier posts; the point is that guys won't even SIGN a contract with Wlad or Vitaly, for the biggest paydays of their lives, that's how intimidating the brothers are. Or even if the contract is signed, they fake a back injury two weeks before because they are getting the runs just thinking that they will have to get it on with Wlad.

Huh? So Diva Gaye, Povetkin, Adamek, and Valuev are not legitimate conteders or current/former world champs?

Besides, 4 out of the 8 duckers I mentioned are from the 90s; Toney, Tua, Mormeck, and Lewis.

Valuev and Povetkin are jokes, and neither Haye the duck or Adamek have proven sh**. They can't be taken seriously yet.

Uhh...Heres the difference no one is picking up on.

Tyson's aura and terror was mostly to the fans and possibly LHW Michael Spinks. Thats where it ended. Other people weren't afraid of him. Heck, even Big George was begging him for a fight for years. Sure he had respect from other boxers, but whenever a live opponent got in the ring with Tyson, I mean someone who was close to prime, and in the top 15 ranked heavies, they always came out to win. Tyson was a great bum beater. Possibly the greatest. I dont mean that like, he fought only bums, I mean, if you put him in the ring with a journeyman, you knew what would happen.

Wlad's aura is much different. Wlad is aura is over other boxers. First of all, dont understimate the size. Guys see Wlad, and see this 6'6 1/2, physical freak. Tyson was ripped, but guys looked down at him, here's Wlad and all guys see is muscle as they look up at him. I read an article a while back in a weight lifting mag about how Wlad is much more physically imposing in person and how you dont really even appreciate how big he is until youre in the room with him. Then you have the fact Wlad gives you no opportunities to win. So even if guys do have the balls to fight him, he is going to punch them in the face, stay cool and collected and not give them opportunities. Top that off with the fact that Wlad is the reason why MMA is "safer" than boxing. Tyson is like MMA, it would be over quick or steam would start coming off those punches. Wlad, youre going to take repeated head trauma. It wont be quick, it will hurt and you will be seriously injured. You might feel a little better about yourself after losing to Wlad by TKO in the 9th as opposed to KO 1 for Tyson, but it wont matter because after Wlad you might never fight again.

No he actually couldn't rematch Douglas.
Douglas lost to Holyfield as soon as he beat Tyson then stopped boxing completely for 6 years and when he came back he was never really ranked again.

Oh, so wait, Valuev, the biggest HW champ of all time, someone who would have a big size advantage on either Klitschko

Povetkin, an undefeated Olympic Gold Medalist, has one of the most decorated amatuer career in history of boxing

Adamek - LHW, CW champ

Gaye - CW Ring champ, 3 belts at CW, current WBA belt "holder"

Yeah, none of those guys have ever proven anything, you are right, they are total novices and jokes...

Your post can't be taken seriously...
