Tua is a very limited fighter and wouldn't have a chance against Klitschko - his limitations would make the perfect style for Klitschko's strengths. And Rahman & Byrd should be able to repeat their performances against him. Tua needs to be matched carefully and go after Ruiz.

no but that was one of the reasons why tyson,foreman and frazier were champs. same goes for tito trinadad and kosta zoo.btw iam not sayin its the only reason they are succesful but power was essential to each fighter i just listed.

Two of the most boring fights EVER:
Tua/Lewis
Tua/Rahman

Oh BOY!! He's back! (yawn..)

David Tua-Samuel Peter, now theres a fight! Tua will KO this guy with the first punch he lands. Its just all about how long it takes for him to land that shot. It took him 11 rounds to get to Maskaev, 12 with Izon, this may go awhile.

Tua has not been out that long to be fighting as big of a bum as Griffis. At least fight someone in the top 50. Or maybe even the top 100. This is just sad.

I actually heard that he already made a come-back of sorts...fighting some fat lady for the last chicken leg at a buffet in Vegas.

David Tua has one of the strongest punches in the heavyweight division. One good shot and you're almost out. Just ask John Ruiz, I enjoyed that fight a lot. It took just 19 seconds in the first round to finish the fight. Ruiz will get nightmares now!

Last I heard Tua was huge.... He got really fat. The last few fights I saw with him, his heart was missing. When Tua first came out to the boxing scene he had that determantion in the way he boxed, that seemed to have diminished. If we could get him back the way he was (which I doubt) he will be a force to recon with in the HW division, but he has always gotten discouraged and coasted when he fought the long armed fighters that he couldn't get to in the first couple of rounds. Jirov would be a good stepping stone for him or Toney. Toney wouldn't be a cake walk though.

a guys with an iron chin and one punch KO power in both hands is a player in today HW division , sadly cause that s all he has.

I imagine two damn hard hitting short little rhino`s unleashing a storm.

I pick Tua by 5th

I don't know, Tyson didn't bring the war to Williams, I think Tua by KO 3

Tua is one of the most durable fighters out there so Tyson wouldn't be able to finish it early, and we all know his stamina is non-existant. Tua KO4 would be my pick

Last heard the Tuaman was walking around at 330 lbs! :eek:

March is too soon I think, he'll just be virtually training to trim his weight down. If he'll be up with some journeyman like Williams, then it's just OK.

Tua-Tyson will be huge and I'd like to see him fight Huggy Bear Louise! I seriously doubt HuggyBear's punch-and-clinch tactics will work against the Tuaman who'll be catching him with one of the most devastating left hook :eek: and uppercut in the HW ranks.

I'd bet he'd probably knock Ruiz out in 19 secs of the first round or something crazy like that! How 'bout you?! :p

Yeah, for the 2nd time I'd like to see that again. Someone has to put away Huggy Bear. Toney can. Vitali!!!.
