Tyson vs Tua in 1996 who would win if they fought in that year?

Tyson!

 

Did you actually watch the Holyfield fight vs Tyson? Tyson got tired easily after the 4th round. Sure Tyson won the 5th round clearly but thats mostly do with Holyfield taking a break and even though Tyson won the 5th round, he didn't move his head and didn't even use his legs that well. But after the 5th round you can tell easily Tyson was indeed tired.

 

Whats Tua's KO ratio compared to TYSONS?

Have to admit the Holyfield which thought Tyson would of beat Tua easily also so no need to compare that.

I reckon TYSON will win this, once he will get in his rythym which he will against TUA style he will tee off pretty easily and TUA will feel them.

Tyson chin is better than what people think he can take some bombs, more than I see TUA take.

 

The bias was so real i didn't even feel the need to argue. Tyson has an ATG chin at heavy imo.

 

Dude Tua has the best chin maybe ever in boxing. Tua has face bigger punchers and Tua never been knockout, tko or knockdown. This is the same fighter that doesn't hold, doesn't cheat, doesn't play dirty and doesn't have boxing skills. Yes Tyson back then had the best chin but i think Tua is better cause the stuff i just mention. And i don't get what you talking about once Tyson gets his rythyn? If i recall Tyson never get warm up after the 1st or 2nd round. When the bell rings for round 1, Tyson always and i do mean always looking for a knockout.

 

Atg chin at heavy? Better then Tua? hmm i have to disagree with that one. Yes Tyson had a great chin no doubt but not better then Tua chin.

 

I mean TUA wont put TYSON out of his game plan, like a Holyfield with spoiling tactics or a Lewis with a jab which will keep him at bay.

TUA wont keep TYSON off and TYSON is awesome and teeing off

 

Tyson fought the best and got tagged by the best flush.

Holy hit him with a shot he ran into in the first fight before the stoppage. Crazy display of chin from Tyson...most humans hit the floor.

 

Ring, Holyfield is not known as a dangerous knockout puncher. Holyfield can hit but he's doesn't hit with full force like Tyson, Tua, Ike or even Lewis does. Tua has face knockout punchers in Rahman twice, Lewis, Maskaev, Ike and those fighters never came close of stopping Tua.

 

Tua for me, one of the Top 10 chins of all time, and a hell of a puncher. If he could get past the first 5 rounds he stops Mike late.

 

I pick Tyson in an interesting fight.

 

You know Sven Ottke knocked out Anthony Mundine cold.

I was talking about a perfect punch. Man I wish I could use youtube at work.

Tua fought Lennox but never got hit with the bombs Tyson got hit with. Rahman is not a knock out puncher for the record. He is a heavyweight who knocked out some people. but he is not a KO puncher. You remember the Tyson - Ruddock fights. Now Ruddock was a puncher.

 

I see why people would choose Tua here, like another poster said Tua probaby could take Tyson's power better than Tyson could take Tua's. That is assuming they just go punch for punch though. I think Tyson's speed, movement, defense and just overall better craft would be the deciding factor. Like him or not, Tyson knows his **** about boxing and wouldn't just go recklessly in against Tua. I see Tyson moving, picking his spots and getting off first in every exchange. It isn't like Mike has a glass chin here, I'm sure if he fought a smart fight he would take what Tua could land on him.

 

Rahman is a knockout puncher. If he isn't then he wouldn't ko Lewis with just 1 punch. But ring what about Ike? you going to tell me Ike is not a knockout puncher? Tua took all of those bombs from Ike and still was right there trading shots after shots.

 

If people are trying to say that Tyson has a better chin that Tua, then this debate has gone off into crazyland.

It's not debatable. Tyson's chin is crackable, Tua's is not.
