Just watched Holyfield-Tyson again. Got a question for NSB.

"K2 obviously beats Tyson."

The Tyson who fought Holyfield in 96-97 still had very good power, he still threw some combinations (just nowhere near as fast or as many compare to his prime) and he still had good foot work. His total lack of head movement and his lack of stamina towards the later rounds was evident. His chin was still pretty good and he definitely still had that killer aura about him.

I wonder how that version would have done against the Haye who fought Chisora. OR AGAINST Chisora.

The 96-97 version?

Nothing funny about that. You honestly think the Tyson that fought Holyfield can beat Current Wladimir?

That version of Tyson would definitely beat these fighters today. I voted no , because I didn't read the part where u excluded the Klitschko's. I believe they are very good fighters in their prime and it would take a prime Tyson to beat them. However, he could have easily caught either of them early and stopped them with this version, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Thanks for answering. In your opinion how do you think that version of Tyson would do against David Haye or Thomaz Adamek?

Total domination from Tyson or it will be interesting?

ARE YOU SERIOUS?? And you're the guy asking if a 96' Mike Tyson could beat the rest of the guys in the current heavyweight scene?? I can't tell if these are questions or jokes. Either way I find this funny.

I think a 96-97 Tyson vs Haye would be **** McGee.

I don't get what you are saying or complaining about.

I don't think you understood my question. I wanted to know if people think that version of Tyson could beat everyone OTHER THEN K2.

I said I believe Current Wladimir will beat that version of Tyson. I EXCLUDED Wladimir from my question. I don't get what is funny or confusing to you. Other people got the question. Don't know why you didn't.

Just because a 96-97 version of Tyson would not have been able to beat Current Wladimir don't mean he would have lost to anyone else in today's era. Wladimir is heads and shoulders above everyone else today.

He still would have knocked them out easy. I have no doubt about that.
