Prime Mike Tyson VS Prime David Tua

[pbftxrs316]

good fight, but tyson's speed was something special, and would win the fight for him, tua's tough as **** with amazing power, but tyson's speed on defense also as well as offense in his prime was untouchable.

Tyson by late round KO in a war.

prime mike tyson kills tua (and thats PRIME, pre buster douglas).

[Left Hook Tua]

i think tyson gets the ko only in the early rounds.

if it gets into the later rounds it'd be tua that gets the ko tbh.

Certain fighters just seem impossible to knock out. If it's a shootout Tua would win eventually. Tyson, although he had a solid chin, couldn't take bombs all night like Tua could. It would have been an incredibly interesting fight, just to see how Tyson would have fought.

[MANGLER]

Tyson KO. Too fast for Tua. He actually had good defensive head movement when he was prime. I don't think Tua would go easy, it woulda been war. But Mike would get to him in the 6th or 7th.

[paul750]

Ibeabuchi threw more punches in his fight with Tua than any other heavyweight in history. Even if you don't think Ibeabuchi's power was quite up there with Tyson's, it was still serious power. I just can't see how Tyson could stop Tua. Even if he did hit harder than Ibeabuchi, it was only by a small amount.

A couple of things;

-Tyson was not in prime condition, not physically nor mentally, when he fought Douglas.
-Tua was not in his prime when he was dominated by Lewis.

Tyson would win this fight fairly fast and fairly brutal. Proof that Tua can be knocked out;

[El Dominicano]

A while back I would have said Tyson but I'm going with Tua. They can both hurt eachother but Tua can take it better...it'd be a really close fight and THIS time

I gotta go with Tua...He has heart and doesn't fold when the fight doesn't go his way > Like Tyson.
