There is no way Tua wins this fight... Ustinov may be slow and stiff.. but at his point he outworks Tua and wins a decision or stops him late. Ustinov also has a granite chin, I don't think he's ever been down in his entire career as a professional fighter (boxing and k-1) He took a knee against Pulev to get out of a horrific beating late in a fight that he had not chance at winning, but that doesn't really count.... Tua has struggled with Journeymen over the last couple of years, I really don't see how he wins this - but this is his last shot, maybe he'll come in motivated but money is on Ustinov.
Age may be another factor in this fight and although Tua is usually overweight and not fit like the great fighters from the past decades but this fight should be interesting....I would not say David was an all-time great but neither is Ustinov Even so David is unusually short for a heavyweight, I have seen reports of 5"9 to 5"10, he claims he is in shape...so could be a cross-decade fights of sorts This content is protected
Tua looks a little bit like George Foreman in this picture. Hard for Tua to look good against giants.
At his best Tua would have demolished Ustinov. As things stand I suspect this will be one fight too many for him!
She probably has a better chance of reaching up to Ustinov's jaw with a left hook, too. That is really the only thing I am interested to see; how Ustinov's resistance withstands that signature punch of Tua's...but he might not even once land it over twelve. :verysad
look at who the trinket collectors beat to win them trinkets and then you see that the trinkets are just that. Worthless comparison really.hat:think
