    What is so funny? I guarantee you that tons of posters agree with me... Tyson was better overall but shot for shot tua hits harder and was stronger

    Yes, but power on its own, is not worth two buckets of spit!

    To be fair tua was a very good puncher, great finisher,explosive and very good hand speed for a man of his size. Good accuracy, he was more accurate than marciano for example. And he carried his power late.he had real 1 single ko punch, very few guys in history had the level of power of tua

    But he always fell short, when he fought somebody in the top 10!

    Let’s just go with Tucker on this!

    He and Tucker beat about the same number of top ten fighters. Tucker wins this easily though.

    His right han was horrible? For sure he was a 2 handed puncher with alot of power in both hands. He did not have a good jab... So what? Marciano and frazier neither did... They did not need it,they are brawlers inside not cute boxers
