    Sonny Liston vs Tony Galento
    ​
    Two Ton will be way in over his head here & the pre-fight trash talk will only get him hurt even more in the ring.

    Tua fans are the worst. They love to pit him in fantasy fighters vs smaller cruisers weights from other eras because they know he can’t handle any skilled fighter his size or taller than him. Marciano is one of the top 3 head to head fighters of all time 185lb or below.

    Tua wouldn’t even make the top 50 all time head to head 240 and below. He’s not fit to shine Marciano’s shoes.


    I’ll never forget when that pillow fisted blown up cruiser weight Chris Byrd gave Tua a boxing lesson. I laughed out loud for 12 rounds.

    This is a brutal match up bro! Could be a fine line between mismatch and manslaughter. I hope Mike has his affairs in order before first bell.

    I’m still smarting about paying for the mismatch between Wladimir Klitschko and David Haye. Haye owes me £15 for that **** performance.
