Mike Tyson vs. Wladimir Klitscko

[Abstraction]

****ing disgraceful that people are still buying into the "Prime Tyson" hype all these years later.

Maybe because it's not hype?

A Prime Tyson coupled with his problems still managed to become youngest champion ever.

Seriously, i don't know of another boxer who had so much trouble outside the ring than in the ring than Tyson.

If it was not his family dying it was his coach dying, if it was not his coach dying it was manager dying, if not that it was his wife leeching money and wrecking his mind, if it was not that it was Don King messing up Tyson and Don King's Money issues, if not that it was Don King making Tyson fire his trainers etc.

Even then Tyson was a real rare talent and had his career progressed like a normal boxer, could have achieved so much more.

Only other boxer that had a hectic life outside the ring was Ali, who lived in times of bigotry and was scrutinized by the government for not being their tool.

These are moder day boxers who faced troubles. You'd think in this day and age life would be easier and in contrast to HW's back i the days of Black Fighters at around the Jack Johnson era.

I cannot try to favour Wlad (or Vitali for that matter) against a prime Tyson.

Seriously, their very talented fighters, but don't let the disgraceful state of the HW division make them appear to be better than they are.

Wlad showed his limitations against mediocre fighters. Against a a first tier HW Champion like Tyson, i don't think Wlad stands much of a chance in seeing the final bell, in my opinion

Tyson is the most overrated fighter of all time...He was a mental midget with no heart...Buster "The Bum" Douglas KO'd Prime Tyson

Wlad keeps Tyson at bay with his superior jab and batters him with steelhammer right hands and left hooks....Wlad by KO

This is piceless. A Wlad fan questioning another fighter's heart. Wlad is a safety first fighter through and through. Tyson may have been a headcase, but he took beatings before he was KO'd until he was absolutley shot. Wlad would get ripped apart inside, and unlike most of his comptition, Tyson can slip a jab, pivot inside, and create openings to land.

Wladimir Klitchsko gets too much credit.

A prime Tyson.....My god...Wlad will be lucky to see round two.

[krispy kreme]

This is different than the thread with Vitali. Wlad would get knock the fuck the out, Tyson had too much movement. Wlad has a good jab, but I can see Tyson getting around that, and ****ing him inside.

[kayjay]

Wlad is faster, stronger, better-skilled, and has every technical and physical advantage over Tyson. This is a big mismatch in Wlad's favor.

Prime of Course..Vote and Discuss

Not much to discuss. Tyson by brutal KO.

wlad fights scared. tyson feeds off that. tyson by brutal KTFO

[Ryn0]

Tyson is faster than anyone Wlad will have faced up to this point, Tysons bobing and weaving would help get past Wlads long, sharp jab. It's only a matter of time before Tyson lands and Wlads chin will not be able to hold up. Tyson KO
