Does Tyson have a better resume than either of the Klitschko bros?

Was brought up the other day, thought it was an interesting question.

Have at it!

Yes.

I mean, even a guy like Frank Bruno would stand out on Vitalis resume.

The Spinks win is what edges it out for me.

The Spinks win is what edges it out for me.

Spinks, faded Holmes.. theres a fair few wins that are better than pretty much anything on the brothers resume.

I think Wlad could come close if he keeps winning, but I'd say Tyson is still greater.
He blows Vitali out of the water in terms of resume.

Fair points. I think the Haye win was a real good win for Wlad. If only he had beaten Adamek instead of Vit I would call it dead even.

The problem is, what makes Haye a good win as a heavyweight?
Haye could be a good win if he had a better resume at heavyweight. He only beat Valuev and shot Ruiz basically.

I do think many probably overrate Tysons greatness (maybe some boxing snobs underrate him, but the majority of fans overrate it) and underrate Wlads. But i still think Tyson is greater due to having better wins overall.

Better than Vitalis,who has a paper thin resume,its closer between him and Wlad though,i think the way Tyson beat people and his achievements give him the edge

I count the danger of an opponent for a lot when ranking a resume. Lots were picking Haye to stop Wlad like Sanders did.
