David Tua is a beast

[keepthemhandsup]

am i wrong for thinking he does kinda fight like fraizer?

i mean they have the same guard and left hook. just when it comes to moving the head fraizer is miles ahead of tua in that department.

There are slight similarities, but Frazier's bobbing and weaving was so integrated in his style that if you took it away you couldn't really say you had Frazier anymore. Tua also throws punches from a lot closer than Frazier ever did, and is a lot more compact in the way he throws punches as well. He tends to want to fight in a phone booth, keeping his opponent away with his left shoulder and popping those quick hard left hooks at his opponents whenver he sees an opening. If anything, I'd say Tua's style reminds me slightly, slightly of older Foreman in the way he'd catch shots and stalk his opponents down, but really, that's quite a stretch. Tua is Tua.

No they wouldn't.

Yeah, they would most likely.

Tua has special kind of power but being the short stubby not so fast guy that he is means he would always have problems with guys like the man in your avi and the K-bros who are tall, have a long reach, and rely alot on the jab.

Tua has the hardest left hook in Heavyweight history.

Joe frazier.

[Vadrigar.]

Not in punching power.

Er..no. They're definitely comparable.

[Earl-Hickey]

floyd patterson. great hand speed , good power and peek a boo styles (both courtesy of cus d'amato)

it might not look the same because floyd was fighting similar sized guys and tyson was fighting taller guys but their style is more similar.


just because a guy is short and has pop doesn't mean he fights like tyson.

Arthur Abraham and David Tua are both short and punch hard, theres no difference between them really, I think Tua would have beaten Dirrell though.

They'd UD him, that's a no brainer. They wouldn't spark him out. No one sparks Tua out.
