    Tyson in his so called prime never faced a prime top HW. He has a serious speed advantage over Klitschko but he has to make up way more than 1/2' in height and about 9'' in reach. It would be ****** if he tried to pressure Klitschko since he get eaten by the jab and the right hand every time he tries coming in. He just can't win this one.

        most of you *******s in here aren't even old enough to know just how good tyson was. there is a reason why everybody thinks that todays heavyweight division sucks, there is no dominant champ. they weren't saying that when tyson was on top. vitali is a serviceable title holder until the next dominant heavyweight comes along. that is all he is.

          Vitali is akward, not a particularly devistating puncher, and he's stiff and stands straight up.

          I know everyone likes to think he's unbreakable because he walked through some good shots from an old Lewis,

          but we're talking about one of the hardest hitting heavyweights of all time fighting a guy who stands straight up.

          In the Rooney D'amato days, Tyson folds Vitali in half with body shots and stops him.

          Vitali's biggest career wins are over Larry Donald and Kirk Johnson.

          I think it's absurd to hear anyone say a top 10-15 all time Heavyweight in Mike Tyson at his prime, has no chance.

          Non sense.

              Seriously some of you are over the top...prime Tyson either takes a comfortable decision or knocks out Vitali late.

                  Still doesnt change the fact that this could be a very interesting fight.


                  I give the edge to Tyson but I think Vitali just because of his size and jab would give Tyson problems. This would not be one of Tysons brutal, early round KOs thats for sure.

                    Nothing. But he is a big akward figher, and Tyson never had an easy time with tall guys.

                      your an idiot!!! Lennox Lewis couldn't put away Tucker FOUR years after tyson fought him. you don't know ****. Prime Tucker beats Vitali with no problem. what? was tyson supposed to kayo every single opponent? ill bet you havent seen a prime tyson fight at all have you? tucker was 35-0 when he fought tyson. vitali would never, never beat a prime tyson., i don't care if they fought 20 times
