Does the Mike Tyson (circ.2000) that made Golota surrender beat both Wlad & Vitali?

I think that version of Tyson definitely SPARKS Wlad out at some point in the fight. Wlad has solid punching power, but he's not a one punch KO artist like Tyson.I Think so. With his defense, head movement, & ability to muscle his way inside, combined with Wlad's glass jaw, i think he flattens Wlad in 1 round.
Vitali, who's chin is overrated, got wobbled by CORRIE ****EN SANDERS and in the Lewis fight, by the end of round 6, he was dazed, with noodley legs and damn there ready to hit the canvas.
I Think Tyson gets Vitali out of there within 6.
Tyson also had old school fundamentals. That is something guys like Haye, Sam Peter and Tony Thompson don't have.
I think it'd take a PRIME Tyson to take out this version of Vitali Klitshko. Prime Tyson makes PRIME Klitshko swallow his mouthpiece and quit.
But the Tyson that fought Golota probably gets outworked over the long haul.
I like Vitali's chin better than Wlad's and also Vitali's defense seems to be slightly better.Comment

Tyson was a media myth. I got to hand it to them they did a good job scaring the public into believing a 5'10 210 lb HW was actually a decent boxer when in reality his K.O power was not that big compared to other HW's and the people he did actually K.O were bums or past it.Comment

The Buster Douglas fight is what you would call an UPSET. Kinda like Wlad vs. Lamon Brewster I.
And Mike Tyson was not in his PRIME when he fought Lennox Lewis.
The Douglas fight was in 1990 and the Lewis fight was in 2002.
Get your facts s8, buddy.Comment

The Klitshkos have NEVER defeated a fighter on the level of the past prime Larry Holmes that Tyson ko'd.Tyson was a media myth. I got to hand it to them they did a good job scaring the public into believing a 5'10 210 lb HW was actually a decent boxer when in reality his K.O power was not that big compared to other HW's and the people he did actually K.O were bums or past it.

even espn did a piece recently after tyson got inducted into the Hof basically saying that he was all hype who lost any big fight he was ever in.Tyson was a media myth. I got to hand it to them they did a good job scaring the public into believing a 5'10 210 lb HW was actually a decent boxer when in reality his K.O power was not that big compared to other HW's and the people he did actually K.O were bums or past it.
The questioned whether or not he actually belonged in the hof and tbh, its a legitimate argument.
Anyone who pulls up tysons resume will be hard pressed to find anything special. They all remember the hype, but when you look at the facts, he barely did shit.Comment

You would be hard pressed to find anything special about Tyson besides him being the youngest HW champ ( by beating up a career LHW, just like how floyd patterson got the title at 21, another damato mob job )
oh and once tyson lost, he was completely useless. He lost his aurora, no boxer was scared any more. When Joe Louis lost, he was still a threat in his prime to any man.Comment
