Who wins???

Foreman by KO.

Tua by KO 9-11.

i think this may have been simalar to the ibeabuchi-tua fight, if of course it's when they are in their primes

Too close to call for me.

Foreman would destroy Tua within five rounds in a brutal slugfest. Tua has got an iron chin, but against a prime Foreman he would be seriously outclassed.

Tua has a great chin, but in my opinion George Foreman would knock him out.

ive got to be honest guys i don't think anyone would knock out tua, unless they had a baseball bat with them :D i'm not saying foreman wouldn't hit harder than ibeabuchi or lewis, but even still he has took some monsterous shots without showing much sign of hurt

Tua has absorbed some big shots throughout his career but even in the Lewis fight (his most one sided loss) it's not like he was getting bombed constantly. Lewis made good use of his jab and used just enough of his power to keep Tua off of him. He had no interest in standing and trading with Tua.

Tua has never been at the recieving end of a battering like the one Foreman gave Frazier, so I wouldn't say he is knockout proof for certain. His opponents all respect his power too much to stand and trade with him. I don't think Foreman would give Tua that kind of respect. He would test the smaller man's chin early and often. I think Tua would hold up pretty well but eventually those huge shots would get to him. No one can stand there and take Foreman's punches. Ali certainly didn't. Even when he was against the ropes, most of those punches hit glove and arm, and many missed or were only glancing shots.

Foreman versus Tua would look like Frazier-Foreman, except it would probably go 5-6 rounds instead of 2.

Do you guys think that Tua is underrated?

i'm not sure achilles, ike ibeabuchi had a 975 punch output against tua, so tua has been hit hard and often before, as i've said before i'm not saying foreman wouldn't have punched harder, but ibeabuchi was still a very hard puncher, and tua showed no signs of hurt in that fight or any other fight

I am not sold on Ike's power. He had a beastly physique and looked like he could bend an iron bar in half but aside from the Byrd fight he never exhibited world class power. Few of the guys he fought prior to Tua had winning records. His competition was that poor. Even in the Byrd fight it was more of Chris being up against the ropes and getting caught with the perfect punch.

I have seen the Ike-Tua fight and the Ike-Byrd fight (in other words, the only world class opponents Ike beat) and I don't think Ike hit as hard as Rahman or Lewis, let alone George Foreman.

you have to have tremendous power in order to land the perfect shot in the first place,that's why he knocked byrd senseless, i don't think there's much doubt about ike's power, here's what steve munisteri had to say about him one time, '' he knocked the heavybag off the wall, he hit it so hard the whole frame came off the wall'' he seems like a pretty hard puncher to me achilles

I didn't say that Ike couldn't punch. Just that he was probably a weaker hitter than Lewis and Rahman based on how Tua respected the power of those two fighters and had no trouble with Ike's punches.

Ike fought toe to toe with tua, rahman and lewis were the ones scared of tua's power, because they both elected to fight on the outside,tua just has a a lot of problems dealing with the styles of rahman and lewis it's nothing to do with respect, so based on that logic chris byrd must also punch harder then :rolleyes:

i agree with kid 100 percent.tua has problems with anybody who has any kind of a jab.foreman would wear him down and either knock him down or have him out on his feet

i also say foreman, if tua could tired foreman up maybe he could beat foreman like ali, but tua seem to not have that style. i also think it would be like foreman vs frazier but more round though bc of tua´s granite chin.

Foreman's KO percentage is alot higher and I don't recall Tua knocking out anyone as highly regarded as Joe Frazier. Mind you, nobody else was able to accomplish this feat and Foreman did it twice.

this will be the mismatch of the century :D
