Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Reveals His Strategy To Defeat a Klitschko

[Jim Tom]

Hall-of-famer "Iron" Mike Tyson, one of the most feared heavyweight champions of all-time, discussed his strategy to fight the current heavyweight double threat, which is comprised of champions Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko. According to Tyson, he would use a fighting style similar to Joe Frazier or Henry Armstrong to work his way inside, and then he would have to be smart and patient to inflict the damage.

That's what Chisora did and Chisora had good succes.He even mentioned he was beaten by experience because he knew the style was the right one.

Can I have some of what ever you are smoking? WTF seriously a primed Tyson would kill anyone who steps in the ring with him ... wouldn't even last a round like most

more like can i have some of whatever you are smoking. that said i think i will pass because it would seem you are smoking some mike tyson sausage.

Ive said for a long time the Frazier would be hell for the Klits based on his style of slipping side to side and bobbing and weaving under punches the whole time making the Klits pay for missing. Its nice to have my opinion validated by a historian and great champion like Tyson.

prime mike wouold lose to vitali of any era, and only beat wlad in pre manny steward. Certainly 2008 onwards wlad destroys 5 ft 10 mike tyson.

Prime Mike beats both Klitschkos.

He's beaten tall fighters before, and the Klitschkos offer nothing special as it pertains to speed, form, power or gracefulness.

They hold and jab like all Steward fighters.

A young and prime Tyson was a master of working his way inside. Prime Mike never did dumb things like brawl or rely on power. He was scientific in his approach because he was trained that way.

Once he fell back into old ways, his training regressed into ego and tough man brawling. He still had the tools but definitely not the mind or willpower.

Cus alive = undefeated Tyson.

They are both so open to the body, Chisora worked Vitali's body in a decent manner and it worked. Imagine Frazier getting inside? He'd collapse their rib cages.

Chisora is a poor mans Frazier..... Hell he'd be lucky to be ever considered that! Frazier had better everything, jaw is debatable but that's only cause of what foreman did. Frazier was amazingly fit, had incredible footwork, really good evasive skills and not to mention how sharp he was on the inside. IMO he would have taken both klitschko's to the cleaners all day everyday and twice on Tuesday.

I'd like to see what Tyson would do to negate the excess hugging that wlad does, still think Tyson would ko wlad early though

That's the only way Tyson could've fought the Klitschkos anyway.
