    Prime Tyson vs. Tua. You'd think it wont go the full 12, in my opinion, it actually will. It'd be damn exciting. I'd still much prefer Tyson vs Frazier. Tyson by U.D.

      I think Tyson went a full 12 rounds before. Maybe just once hahaha. How can you honestly believe those two would end up on the cards.

          If Tyson came out of retirement now?? Tua easily, more active and Tyson's chin is gone now. Prime for prime? Probably Tyson UD

            Tyson - 50 wins 44 by KO
            Tua - 50 wins 43 by KO

            Uh...Am I missing something here?

            You're the second person to say by points. How do you guys srsly believe 2 fighters who are both KO artists actually believe that it will go the distance. I'm trying to figure out the logic there hahahah.

              Both have amazing chins so I agree with the guy who said this could very well be a UD. I see it more of a Tyson Ruddock. Tyson taking huge shots but in the end KO'ing Tua.

              They are pretty similar. Both listed as 5'10 with Tua 70' reach and Tyson 71'. Though many sources dispute Tyson's height anywhere from 5'11 to 6'1.
              Both fought at similar weights though Tua has weighed much more, as much as 240-250's whereas Tyson even at his fattest I think was only around 240 and spent the latter part of his career 230's and early part 215-220 etc.

              Both have similar power. 86% KO from 43 KO's out of 50 wins for Tua and an almost identical 50 wins with 44 KO's for Tyson for a slightly higher 88% KO rate.

              Interesting fun fact is also I believe Mike Tyson has the record for most 1st round KO's ever and Tua is in 2nd place.

                  And by that logic you actually think it'll go the distance?

                  You know these guys weren't the biggest jab puncher right?

                  They were sluggers.

                  Sluggers don't go past the 6th round.

                  Please tell this is a joke.
