    I think Tua has more technique and gets his legs into his punches more. Tua by KO.

    This would have been a great fight both with iron chins and power i would still like to see them fighting now.
    Prime Tua was faster and technically better than prime Peter. Tua by late TKO or U.D

    Could be a great heavyweight slugfest and its hard to pick a winner but Tuas better skills carry him to victory.

    Tua slaughters Peter in his prime. The Tua that beat fought Ike would be a problem for ANY HW today.....espcecially Peter.

    Can anyone name one thing that Peter does better than Tua? Also, I don't know where this 'iron chin' talk is coming from. Peter has been staggered numerous times by far lesser punches than Tua. No way he can take David's punches, but David can take his.

    Tua by decapitation. Peter is a nobody. He cant even be regarded as a slugger as his techinique is soooo poor. Plus he's chin is distinctly average.

    Sam's a little bigger and a little taller, but he's not a boxer/puncher or a defensive mastermind, he's going to get landed on cleanly and dropped at some point of the fight - the only thing that Peter has going for him is that Tua tires down the stretch, but then again so does Peter.

    I went with Tua by decision. Prime Peter had a good chin and Tua has (had?) an awesome chin. They would likely bang on each other until the later rounds when they would both tire to the point where they would lose the ability to KO each other, but Tua would probably dominate on activity (prime Tua threw a lot of punches). I give it 118/110 Tua.
