    Tua is one of the possible opponents for Wlad's quick December return.

    If it wasn't for what happened in July, I would say that's a very dangerous quick return for Wlad, but Tua would have to be a soft touch now, right?

    Maybe. Probably.

    Tua has what Peter has, a punch. But we all saw how far that got Peter, it got him to a 10 round lopsided beat down.

    So I will start a poll, just to see what I'm sure we all know, in numbers - That almost no one will give Tua a chance. Call me and over-supporter of Tua, but if this fight happens I will watch will interest...

    For the record, I don't think Wlad will be the first to KO the Tuaman.

    W.Klitschko UD12 Tua

    Thoughts?

    More like ouch.

    Tua in his prime would be hard pressed to beat Wlad.

    I've always been a fan of Tua, and despite him being shot, I wouldn't mind seeing what he can do against Wlad.

    But still, I'd go for an easy Wlad 12 round decision.

    any version of Tua is interesting against Wlad Klitschko...
    If it was Tua vs Vitali , then it wouldn't be...wlad's chin will make the difference. (tua's only chance to win...if he can land a powerful shot)

    Tua in his prime gives him 1 hell of a fight that's for sure!

    After the Barrett fight however, Wlad stops him IMO.

    Wlad could stop Tua - and I said that even before the Barrett fight. As usual, it just depends on how catious Wlad is. If he starts opening up early, a stoppage is likely.

    Even a prime version of Tua has very little chance against this version of Wlad. Now, he has no chance whatsoever.

    Both...the more opponents the better..
    but he should also imperatively fight Povetkin , Adamek & Haye.

    This version of Tua quits on the stool after a one sided beating.
    Where is a time machine when you need one?

    Pre-Barrett fight i'd sa Wlad wins a UD, dropping at most two rounds.

    After the Barrett fight I think Tua would be stopped. A shame cause tua used to be a ****ing wrecking machine.

    Obviously I'm quite the Tua supporter as well. So until he gets KO'd I will support him.

    It's been awhile since an upset of this magnitude occured, if Tua did get the ko, so I figure I will watch with interest to see if a giant upset will unfold.

    This would be a huge mismatch. Wlad is at his peak and Tua is shot. Wlad not only stops Tua but he could send him into retirement. Tua is too durable and tough for his own good. He would take an insane amount of punishment before getting stopped late.

    Hasn't Wlad tried his best to fight Povetkin and Haye at least? They keep backing out on him. Then he gets criticized for fighting replacements on short notice. It's not his fault.
