    Let's see Tua beat a top 10 or 20 opponent before rushing to judgement...
    Exactly, Tua just beat the **** out of a no one. Yes he looked great, but he didn't eat any jabs. Both Wlad and Vit would make him eat a lot of leather before letting him get anywhere near for a KO.

    I'd give Wlad a UD and Vit a KO over Tua.

      David Tua has a 69 inch reach and is 5'9.

      I see him having a serious problem doing what he would want to do. That is, get in and use his left hook. Wlad would probably neutralize it pretty easily.

      Tua sucks against good Jabbers.

          Wlad wins a UD unless he gets caught.

            114-111 Wlad. Tua knocks him down 3 times.

              Tua is by far the best heavyweight since Lennox. His movement, power, and speed are all leagues ahead of any of the dross out there currently.

              Would love to see a tentative Wlad try to jab the marauding Tua, stepping and slipping into his face with a bazooka left.
              Have you seen Lewis vs Tua . Tua had chance but was afraid to throw his infamous left hook after Lewis countered him in the 2rd , after being hurt Tua threw the left hook twice the entire fight

                You really think Wlad would get up from THREE Tua knockdowns....

                  The key to this fight is Tua's conditioning. Tua fought Lewis at almost 250 lbs and it showed. He couldn't get off and he had little to know of the usual Tua above the waste movement thus causing him to eat Lewis' jab all night.

                  If Tua comes in against Wlad between 230-235 he has a very good chance of KO'ng Wlad. We know Wlad has a weak chin and Tua packs a wallop. And, although brief, Tua looked very athletic against Cameron. I would say that Tua KO's Wlad.

                  For what its worth.....Tua would lose a lopsided decision against VKlit though. VKlit can weather Tua's storm and box his ears off for 12.

                    Wlad wouldnt get into the ring with Tua, the possibility of him getting caught with a punch is too much.

                      Well he got up from 3 Peter "knockdowns" and I think it was 4 from Sanders, as well as the other 4 or 5. So yes, I think he could, unless Tua catches him early in a round.

                      I'd love to see Tua get another title shot, but he's quite a ways off from getting one from Wlad.
