What was the bigger disappointment? Lewis vs Tua or Mikey vs Spence?

      Lewis-Tua for me. It was a huge, huge deal here in New Zealand, and Tua's rise sparked an interest in boxing that had been missing in this country for decades.

      The fight itself, was like the air being ****** out of a balloon.

      Looking back on it now, with Joseph Parker's career being at the forefront...makes me realize just how limited Kevin Barry is as a trainer. He had no plan B for Tua, and has no plan B for Parker.

        I knew Lennox would handle Tua easily with Steward in his corner. Was disappointed in seeing Mikey barely fighting to not get KOed

            I love Lewis, he's my favourite fighter in history, but yeah, he just played with Tua and didn't feel the need to go through the gears and really hurt him. Tua started off well and gave it a real good go, but he just gave up after a few rounds and settled for the loss. Mikey settled for the loss it seems as soon as he signed the contract and didn't do a f3cking scooby at any point. So for that, Spence/Garcia was worse.

                Lewis at the top of his game , I never really gave Tua a chance
                But Spence vs Garcia , I expected Mikey to really give it a go
                Instead just rolled over and never really tried
                I cheered for Mikey but was very disappointed

                  I'll got with Spence - Garcia. The only reason is because as boring and one-sided Lewis - Tua was, Tua was at least trying to land his left hook. Mikey was just in survival mode.

                    Tua Lewis because Tua was a big puncher going into the fight. Garcia was expected by most to lose badly.
