    Wlad has no chin, whereas David's is like granite.
    Once Tua lands those monster left hooks, say goodbye Wlad.

    tua hasn't lost in 12 fights! and he's had 3 wins of 3 fights last year!
    oh please. tua would be lucky to land one clean punch in this fight prime or not. he never lets his hands go when he's facing bigger men with constant jabs in his face, this would be a lopsided decison or late stoppage win for wlad. now if were talking the wlad of years ago that didnt pace himself then tua could stop him mid to late but that wald doesnt exist anymore

      Tua would take a beating, he'd have a better chance if it went 15 rounds and could catch Wlad in later rounds but it won't happen.

        I would have picked Tua a few years back but he hasn't been in good form since his comeback. Right now it would seem a bad fight for Tua.

        On a sidenote, I don't think Klitschko would have dealt with the 2000 version of Tua the same way Lewis did. I think that's nonsense. Lewis was hit with a couple of big shots by Tua but kept his composure, Klitschko doesn't have that.

          Wladimir wins by an lopsided, boring UD. Even in Tua's prime, all he would have is a slim punchers chance. But at this point in Tua's career, his chances would be even slimmer. Wladimir is just too everything for Tua.

            tua is one of my favorite boxers all-time(check my sig) but no way he beats Wlad. Wlady is too tall, he would keep his distance. It would be kinda like a Lewis-Tyson fight: BORING. Wlady will be throwing power jabs all night and whenever tua would try and rush him, wlady would run. I'd give tua a chance against Samuel Peter or Ruslan Chagaev cuz they are closer to tua in height and reach. But no way he beats wlad.

              He may well of let fear get the better of him though [Klitschko]. We know he's folded under pressure before. I'd say there would be a good chance of him panicking, or just getting knocked out. I am of course talking about Tua in his younger years. Tua always had that pretty fast overhand right.

              Lewis was very composed; that's why he was so successful. People have to remember how hard someone like Tua hits. Not everybody can put that out of their mind.

                what pressure has klitschko folded from? that bum rushing that sanders did on an unprepared wladimir? or that questionable loss to brewster - which still has us scratching our heads as to what really happened?

                one thing about wlad - he is quite a professional. he has had his share of slip-ups. three, to be exact. but the guy is as consistant as a boxer can get. if he succumbs to fear, even a little, we would've seen it in the brewster rematch. and we know, that was a one-sisded beatdown proving that mr klitschko is a far superior fighter. that also tells me that something was "off" in the first fight. take it how you want to - but we know that klitschko dominated 10 of 11 rounds with brewster. that should tell you something.

                    Tua would need to quit fighting poor clubfighters and get in the ring, with, I don't know, about 3 or 4 journeyman at least, before he is in any way deserving of another title shot. Tua/Briggs would have been fun (I think he catches Shannon late) and I think Tua/Peter would be a brawl.
