    As crap as people say K2 are...whos achieved more?
    lol its funny u mention that cuz tua was in a loaded division with HOF heavyweights in their prime

    with that kind of opposition its not as easy getting a title

    tua is old and worn down....dont give me that vitali's a year older crap either

    tua's been a professional boxer since 92...thats 18 friggin years now

      Tua has also been fighting in the so called worst HW era of all time and yet has still done absolutely nothing of note and never once been the #1 or even won a paper title.

        He was 30 years old when Lennox Lewis retired.
        Was it loaded after Lewis retired?
        Hes done nothing and wont be remembered like the Klitschkos...thats just a fact.
        Hell, Ruiz > Tua on accomplishments

            Yet John Ruiz and Michael Moorer managed it. I personally feel that Tua had all the goods to hold an ABC strap at one point but for one reason or another never achieved it. His limitations were fairly evident though, and any decent fighter could exploit them.

                no he wont be remembered like the klitschko....panda never disagreed with that

                  Yep exactly.
                  Ruiz fought in the same era and achieved more than Tua.
                  LOL even Herbie Hide managed to get a paper HW title in the mid 90s

                      Tua lost his 2 biggest fights. how does that = better resume than the Klits ?

                      Question should be: Has Tua faced better competition than the Klitchsko's combined?
