    Has Tua ever won a Heavyweight title?
    Has Tua ever unified a whole division?
    What age did Tua win his first HW crown?

      1. nope.
      2. never.
      3. maybe peter's crown next year if there is a god.

      no one is saying he's great , flaw.

      but a guy with good power and a great chin is a tough fight for anyone.

      more so if you're a slugger as well that is trying to trade with him.

        Mike Tyson wasn’t a slugger his prime, he was very good boxer. People tend to forget than about Tyson. He could release 4 power punches per second, if Tyson threw the same amount of punches Tua did against Ike Ibeabuchi, Tyson would knocked him out. Tyson was faster, smarter and has a better defence than Tua in his Prime.

          I will agree that tyson is better than tua and would probably beat him if they fought in their primes but no way will I agree that tyson has more power than tua. and tyson would not ko Ike if tua couldn't do it.

            big if , flaw. ike threw 900+ punches in that fight. tua about 800.

            the 3 fights (if my memory is working correctly) in heavyweight history in the compubox era with the highest amount of punches thrown are......

            1. ibeabuchi-tua
            2. izonritei-tua
            3. ali-frazier III

            tua's 12 round fights had more punches than the thrilla in manila did in 14.

            there's a reason why tua's opponents throw so much , flaw.......

            don't forget tua's skills are underrated as well he's not as good as mike but he was good enough to win 2 bronze medals.

              mike's right and uppercuts were definitely better. tua's hook was pretty damn strong though.

              ike had a hell of a chin. he ate tua's left hook all night long. most guys can't even take one.

                  different eras , live. back then guys like carnera move like valuev.
                  Put the Tyson who fought Ribalta and Holmes (213-215 lbs) against the Louis who fought Baer and Simon (208 lbs) and weight won't be a huge factor.


                  Abe Simon is little more than a human punching bag but it's a good performance from Louis in his prime despite the opposition.
