Who had a better chin Mike Tyson or David Tua?

[BKM-2010]

I don't know why you would get that upset because anybody with a working boxing brain picked Tyson in that fantasy fight thread. The "Tua wins cuz his chin is better" argument does not hold up. Tyson is above Tua in rankings and H2H, it's the way life works.

but tuas chin is better. stamina too.

i'm sure you realized how important chin and stamina is when cotto was moonwalking to a corner to take a knee vs. marg.

speed and skill isn't everything.

Actually even that is debatable. Tyson has faced some of the hardest punchers of all time and took their best shots while coming forward and staying on his feet. Bruno, Smith, Ruddock, Lewis. When Tyson got stopped it took many rounds of consistent power punches snapping his 20 inch neck back and most of those were after his prime. Tua's never been hit like that, Lewis the only true puncher he faced(Ike's power is overrated) didn't even hit him with his best shot aside from the bodyshot in round 1. The best punch I've seen him eat was the shot at the bell by Rahman and it put him on his flabby arse.

Tyson is basicely superior in every way, if Tua has the edge somewhere physically it would be by a small insignificant amount and that's nowhere near enough to win this. The odds are stacked against him beyond comprehension in your case. I get it though, you got the same stature and body type as today's Tua so naturally you want him to win.

The Invincible Mike Tyson in his prime.....

That combo Douglas landed on Tyson was absolutely insane though. Jab jab jab jab jab right upper cut from hell, then left hook, right hand left hook and down he goes!

That was a great combo. Each shot was absolutely brutal. Still think the ref ****ed up. when mike landed his uppercut from hell, the refs count was too slow. Not making excuses but the fight should have been over.

We could talk about little Barrett also knocking him on his flabby arse, or does the concept of fighter's primes all of a sudden matter when it comes to that one?

Just stop. Your arguments are going nowhere while you don't respond to the points about Tyson's many advantages. This isn't a Kobe vs MJ type thread. This is an All time great vs an all time underachiever it's a no-brainer. The only fighter who can beat Tyson in this type of fight, and where the physical advantages are actually significant enough, is a prime Foreman.
