Comments Thread For: Mike Tyson Reacts To Wilder's Prediction of Beating Him

[The Noose]

Wlad would have been rendered senseless inside of 1 round. No version of Wlad ever beats a prime Mike Tyson.

I dont think Wlad beats Tyson. But that Tyson would struggle to get close to Wlad without being grabbed and clinched.

People seem to forget a prime Tyson went the distance many times and sometimes never even knocked down his opponent.

It would be interesting to see 5"11 Tyson try to punch 6"7 Wilder or Wlad.

Also, if they survived the first few rounds, Tyson would slow down. It would be interesting.

Can Wilder land his one big shot and if so, would it put Tyson down for good...more times than not, Tyson probably wins imho...but Wilder would have his puncher's chance vs anyone...and that's basically what he has vs any decent HW all-time...just a puncher's chance.

I could definitely see Tyson ****ing the body on Wilder especially...perfect height for Mike and Deontay has the long lean torso that is just calling for body shots.

If he works the body then the head will fall on either of those guys...but they would have a shot for sure.

So now you bring up Mr Give me 50 million dollars, who then says he will take a pay cut to fight back home for his fans, who then advises said fans to train to fight Wilder themselves. Ha, what a joke!

Actually he said LET'S ROLL. His promoter said SHOW US THE TERMS. Wilder said NO and Shirley Winkle said NO.

Can't proceed when that's the response.

Prime Iron Mike would have folded him in half with body shots in the first rd, knocked him out cold with an uppercut. Wilder can't fight on the inside, Tyson was a monster on the inside and he was the master at bobbing and weaving his way into his comfort zone.

Tyson is spot on HE IS SUPPOSED TO THINK LIKE THAT...

You know they tell me that Mike Tyson was out of his prime when he was around 23 years old ( HA! ). Fans of 'Iron' Mike phrase this assertion by referencing a short span of time in the young career of Mike Tyson : the years ' 1986-1989' when he became the youngest HW champion of all time, and just before he got exposed. I find that completely laughable and obviously flawed for sooo many reasons that I'm not even going to make any effort to dispute that ******ity.

We all know that quitter convicted rapist Mike Tyson choked when he stepped-up against anyone good enough and willing to fight back. Deontay Wilder would never lay down for old-man and bum beater Mike Tyson.

Here is something that gets overlooked when reviewing Tyson's standing among ATG HW's : Mike Tyson was protected against journeyman 'Razor' Ruddock ( Twice ), after Tyson got exposed by Buster Douglas. If you all done your homework you would know why.

No way does the 'Bronze-Bomber' take an L to Buster Douglas, that's like Wilder getting sparked by Dominic Breazeale, 'Razor' Ruddock would be like Deontay getting help from the ref vs. Dillian Shyte.

No way would the title of 'Baddest man' be given to Mike Tyson if Deontay was around.

What a twat.

Utter nonsense. Tyson was terrifying, most of his opponents were beaten before they got in the ring. He was a wild animal and would tear Wilder apart with no response from Wilder who wouldn't have the first clue how to deal with him.
Tyson won't wait 7 or 8 rounds for Wilder to get his timing and distance right, hell have finished it in seconds flat.
As a boxer, Tyson was a lot more intimidating than Wilder. At least 30 of Wilders KO's were against journeymen at best. He was fighting fighters with more loses than wins trying to get his name noticed.

Tyson in his prime was a terrifying, inhuman monster that seemed unstoppable, Wilder is a nice guy with a big punch who looks very beatable.

You can't compare the two when it comes to the "baddest man" title, Wilder isn't on Tyson's level, not even close.

I must admit, Mike Tyson was truly a 'Bad man', his criminal record is proof of this.

You lost all credibility the minute you turned your argument into a personal one. You pretty much discredited yourself. Try and keep just about boxing next time.

Mike's own fans reference his drug abuse and incarceration to justify his failures in and out the ring.

Tyson blew his career at a very early young age, with don king help. The pre-king Tyson was a beast.

Mike Tyson turned pro at the age of 18, Tyson was signed to Don King by the time he ( Mike ) turned 19 -- yeah I guess you can say Mike blew-it, if only there was enough time to get him back into 'Beast-mode', back when he was not old enough to buy liquor.

What a twat.

Speaking of 'Twats', Mike really enjoyed them. Mike was such a degenerate that he impregnated a C.O whilst he was 'serving' his pitiful sentence for rapping Desiree Washington.

I think Wilders height would be an issue.

The super heavyweights of today would give the greats of the past problems just due to their size and strength. Wlad for example would crush Mike to death in a clinch.

Thank you.
Skill wise?
Tyson without a doubt.
So you honestly believe Tyson could bull rush a man 6 inches taller & nor get caught?
No.
And Wilder fights better when the opponent bullrushes him.
2 different fighters from 2 different eras.
1 fighting to escape the streets.
1 fighting to provide for a child born with spina bifida.
1 fighting in an era of no online forums.
1 fighting in an era of keyboard warriors who have never been in a real fight.

You need to sit down already.
And you definitely need to change your name
