    Landed his left hook on wlads chin. It would be Ruiz all over again. When the hell is wlad going to fight someone worth a ****.

    Wlad would school this Tua worse than Lennox schooled prime Tua.

    When are you going to acknowledge that every fighter you've picked to KO Wlad has gotten his ass beat?

    They don't allow ladders in the ring. Tua has a better chance of mauling his left hand while eating a hoagie.

    This guy has no idea what he is talkn about. He runs his mouth and never backs it up. He is a hater and needs to get off Wlads nuts. He is so dumb it is scary.

    Brewster was landing full blown bombs on wlad once wlad became defensless.... i doubt Tuas would be that that that that much worse then a full blown leaping lamon brewster power punch.... i really doubt wlad goes to sleep.

    That being said... wlad leaning down and letting tua hit him is about the closest tua could ever hope to ever beating wlad so im good

    He could KO Klitschko tomorrow if he could be bothered.

    Don't bring Tua into your arguments..:bart..by your standards Tye Fields will crack Wlad's chin so just leave Tua out of it. People will start to bash on Tua instead of you and thats just unnecessary :nono.

    This forum is flooded with nuthuggers. Its time to bring a reality check back to this forum.

    Wlad height, and jab would be too much for Tua and I would expect a wide UD for Klitschko at this point.

    But a peak Tua was awesome. He wasn't nearly as one dimensional Pre Ike as the older one was. Byrd wouldn't have beaten the Tua that ran through Ruiz and went toe to toe with Ike. If Tua was at his best as he was about a decade ago I'd make him the favorite, but now, no way.

    I hope Tua could get his **** together. I would have loved to see Tua vs Peter. Fireworks all the way. This is now, not prime Tua. His management mess him up.

    What is your record in predicting Wlad fights over the last few years? Is it true you always pick him to be KO'd? What has that got to do with hugging?

    Tua, like Gomez and a few other HWs is always a hypothetical.

    Tua should be fighting often making statements in the ring.

    Instead like Briggs, he is going to try to trade of past glory and get an immediate high profile big money fight ... which would almost be ok if he actually did it. But chances are 6 months later these same hypothetical threads will still be talking about possibilities.

    Hope I'm wrong - I'd love to see him back in the mix putting some of those coming up thru the ranks to the test.

    Hypothetically, it WILL be Tua vs Peter, if Tua can get by Arreola. It's a perfect match up for Tua. The guy has no defense, comes forward, and has less power than Tua.

    The question is: does Tua still have it. The Tua that fought pre Lewis would be undefeated if he had kept his weight in the 220s, thrown punches n bunches, and got the decision against Ike, as he deserved.
