joe didn't have the greatest of chins. a good chin but i don't know if it's good enough against tua's power. joe would also come right at tua. tua has size , power , chin advantage.

mike is better pretty much all around than tua but i'm hoping tua's heart and durability can outlast mike. tua had more energy and power in the late rounds.

the rest from dempsey to patterson is just me running my mouth. they were great fighters but tua outweighs them from 20-50 lbs. so it's not really fair.

I disagree with Frazier, Liston, Louis and Tyson. Patterson, Dempsey, Charles were too small and Dempsey never weighed near 200 lbs, Patterson might have done but he was only a few lb's over 200 and Charles was a better middleweight than a heavy. Charles, Johnasson and Schemling aren't ATG's in my book anyway.

tua would beat most of those guys except Tyson..he's to quick..Liston would probably box to well also..but he could get tagged.

Anyone that stands and ****s w/ Tua is going to have trouble.

frazier-tua would be like two big trucks crashing head on. tua is the bigger , more powerful , more durable truck.

liston's LONG ASS JAB would probably whoop tua all night long but who knows if sonny is given an incentive to not win......

louis was a much , much better skilled fighter than tua but he is outweighed by a bit and joe's chin wasn't the greatest in the world. a 170 lb. billy conn rocked his world.

tyson could be in trouble if a tua-tyson fight gets to the mid-late rounds.

patterson had the worst chin ever for a heavyweight champion. wladimir klitschko makes fun of his chin.

you're right about the rest. charles and dempsey in their primes was around 180.

do you think if tua can survive the early storm and hang in there could it maybe frustrate and dishearten mike?

liston could get tagged but that jab was infamous. tua eats jabs like they were m&m's. liston for not being that tall had what a 82-84 in. reach? scary for tua.

tua would kill dempsey bet the barn on it
