Mike Tyson vs Wladimir Klitschko, Vitali Klitschko, Ruslan Chagaev, Samuel Peter?

Question

Mike Tyson agaisnt all these guys. In a boxing match. All in their primes. I seriously think todays heavyweights arent great. I dont know why, but they just dont entertain me anymore. Dont get me wrong they are/were the champs. But they dont have the heart that i saw in previous champs. I rekon Tyson would knock out all these heavyweight champs. What do you think?

Answer 1

Tyson, in his prime, would have beaten everyone you listed IF he could knock them out before about round 6 or 7.  

I wouldn't put that past him, he was the hardest punching fighter I ever saw in his prime, but he rarely got pushed past about round 6 before his massive punches started to run out of steam.  He'd be in trouble with a guy like Vitali Klitschko (in his prime) if Vitali didn't get knocked out by round 6 IMO.

Answer 2

I think Mike, at his best, could beat them all in one day.

Answer 3

Mike tyson vs Wladimir klischko: Wladimir would try and use the jab to keep Tyson away but this would prove to be a difficult task, i seriously doubt that Wladimir had what it took to handle tyson's frustrating peek a boo movement, Tyson would put a lot of pressure on him before catching him with an uppercut in the third or fourth round (and that's stretching it) and sending wladimir to the canvas.

mike tyson vs vitali klischko: this would be a tougher fight for iron mike but just like wladimir, vitali won't be able to handle mike 's bob and weaving, he would put up a decent fight but eventually tyson's hooks and upper cuts would do too much damage and he would go down, moreover tyson was a lot faster and more accurate he would have outlanded vitali (the fight would probably have to be stopped due to cuts anyway still in tyson's favour)

Mike tyson vs chagaev: Tyson would masscre this guy like he did with golota, he would outland him and demolish his face with quick hooks and vicious combinations this would be a classic youtube knockout video.

Samuel peters vs tyson : Peters's power would be his only advantage in this fight, tyson would attack him head on without giving him a second's rest, samuel would catch tyson a couple of times and perhaps intimidate him a little but eventually mike's speed and power would prevail, he would put up a great fight but after receiving punishement for three - four rounds he would go down and simply wait for the count.

Answer 4

The only one in that list who would give Tyson any problems is Vitali. He's extremely tall but more importantly uses his height well. Also he has a solid chin so he wouldn't fold the moment Mike would land anything.

I'd still favor a prime Iron Mike, but it wouldn't be a couple round blow out like some would believe.

Wlad on the other hand would be taken out by Mike in short order.

Answer 5

tyson in his prime beats all ov the above.

Answer 6

I believe that Tyson would beat all of them.  Not sure if he's knock them all out, but he would win.  I'm not impressed with any of them to be honest with you,

Answer 7

I think a prime Mike Tyson beats all four guys.

Wladimir Klitschko at times fight as if he's scared at times and that's a no-no against Tyson. The first thing a fighter have against Tyson is the bully mentality. Tyson lost to guys who showed no fear in him or his power.

In my opinion, Vitali Klitschko's movement looks slow and robotic at times. Tyson's hand and lateral movement would probably overwhelm Vitali, causing him to misuse his height and reach advantage.

I'm going to keep it short for Ruslan Chagaev. I simply don't rate him any higher than the victims Tyson faced in the 80s.

Now, on to the final man, Samuel Peter. Peter definitely has a puncher's chance and Tyson definitely doesn't respond well to getting hit. Unfortunately for Peter, I don't think he uses the jab effectively to give a prime Tyson any problems or set up for his own power shots. I see Peter fading late into the fight, giving Tyson an easy decsion victory.

Answer 8

tyson

Answer 9

Man Prime Tyson would run through them all, 1 round a peaice. He takes out Wladimir in like 20 seconds. Vitali Klitchko might make it 2 or 3 rounds but would be taking a beating the whole time. Ruslan Chagaev would be a good scrap for a few minuites untill Tyson knocked him out of the ring.

Samuel Peter would pose the biggest threat to Tyson, But would still get knocked out with in the distance.

The top 3 heavyweights of the last 20 years are Holyfield, Lewis, and Tyson. Eaither one of these guys in their primes destroy the current crop of heavyweights.

Answer 10

Tyson would beat them all
