Odds for Lewis - Tua?

Did you forget that in the 3rd or 4th round, Lewis looked a bit dazed in the corner as Tua put the pressure on? At least we agree that Tua didn't fight aggressively for the rest of the fight. I dont recall lewis ever looking hurt in the fight. I'll have to see it again. its been a while. I have it on tape. I do remember being extremely frustrated with tua by not letting his hands go after the 1st round. I was very disappointed with that fight

Speaking of Tua....what's he up to? Last I heard, he pulled out of a fight. He pulled out of a fight against Shannon Briggs.

Speaking of Tua....what's he up to? Last I heard, he pulled out of a fight. Dont waiste your time even thinking about David Tua-he was a very good talent that refuse to show up in shape fight after fight...too bad.

He was dazed, Big Len got clipped by a left hook and was not all there...Manny Steward was slapping his face in the corner.

Ibeabuchi would have given Lewis a better fight, stylewise. Would have been more agressive, active and effective. Lewis UD 116-112. :) I think

I said in the beginning, Tua was doing alright. Watch the fight again. Lewis did come out in the 1st round throwing...but then you'll see Lewis get more defensive and almost got caught while on the ropes. However, after the 4th, Tua just plodded along taking jabs all night and Lewis gained confidence and was content to win by "boxicology", as he put it. I dont agree. I saw the fight twice and tua did well in the first round but did little for the rest of the fight. its lewis's style to fight safety first. for tua,,,he had to fight agressively ,,that was his only way of winning but he elected to do nothing but survive the 12 rounds

Lewis was like a 4-1 favorite, if I recall correctly. All experts agreed that Tua would have to win by KO or it's a UD for Lewis. Boring fight. I was psyched for Tua to win by KO. Lewis was scared for the first 4 rounds. Even got roughed up a bit....but Tua never went for the body or used an upper cut when he had Lewis on the ropes. Lewis...jabbed his way to victory. I was heartbroken. Coz then I knew after that fight, that Tyson would lose by KO to Lewis. wrong. tua fought scared. lewis shook him a bit in the first round with a counter shot and tua fought timid the rest of the fight. threw very little punches. was just too afraid to let his hands go and be countered. I lost a lot of respect for tua during that fight

yeah definitely if tua woulda said let me rush in on lennox and had kept doing that and landed his big bombs it wouldve probably been enough anybody with tuas power landing many shots is gonna knock almost anybody out eventually

those odds were cause nobody really thought tua would beat lewis but enough would bet on tua at 4 to 1 odds who really thought the guy that clearly be holyfield twice was gonna go get knocked out by a far inferior david tua tua did nothing the whole night like he was mesmerized by lewis or something Tua often fought as if he was mezmoraized by his opponent...it wasnt all Lennox. Tua often had to pull fights out of the fire because he had been consistently outpointed in distance fights. Plus the Tua that LL fought was not the Tua that fought Rahman in their first bout or Ike in their bout...not saying he would have beaten Lewis (Lewis had a great cautious style for the Samoan) but if Lennox had a shaky first four rounds against that version of Tua he would have had few more shaky rounds against the version we say fight Ike or Rock.

In my view Lewis played it save, which was boring, and Tua did nothing but wait for his left hook to land. The fight was very disappointing afterall. Didn't expect 4:1 odds, pretty one-sided - expected more like 2:1, maybe 3:1.

The first four rounds were very shaky for LL even though Tua hardly did much...I believe at the end of the thrid round Manny Steward is smacking Lewis across the face after he was buzzed at the very end of the round. After about the 6th round you realized that this fight is over and if you tuned in to see the Big LL get stretched (like I did)then you were going home disappointed. Tua claimed he hurt his rib early in the fight and that played a part in his gross performance over the second half of the fight.
