Can Sam Peter become more accomplished that David Tua?

i agree lewis is another stratosphere but the point i was trying to make was movement completely neutralizes tua.

Sultan's chin is much better than i thought took some wicked right hands from wlad late in the fight. Conditioning was obviously a factor in the austing fight.

Valuev's workrate isnt that great. i think its about 40 punches per round which is average for hw. i dont know the number exactly but it's close.

 

Although i agree with your sentiments that fight wasnt overrated. They set records in that fights for the amount of punches they threw. Both guys ate some hellacious bombs. It was a great fight and prior to that the blue print established by LL to beat Tua wasnt ready yet. Tua had the power and busyness to change a fight at any moment. Considering the state of the current division and comparing it to the 90`s competition isnt even close. Tua would be a live underdog but other than Vlad and Valuev because of his height very few currently would have just outboxed Tua to an easy UD.

 

agreed :good tua had one punch power that could turn the fight at anytime. the problem for him seems to be, he lacked the technical skills to deliver it effectively and efficiently against top opposition

 

Yes, I believe movement would not only tire Tua, but using movement would almost eliminate the threat of Tua landing that Barry Bonds like, homerun swing. Though, the Iggy that fought Wlad on saturday, I do believe Tua would of destroyed. I'm not convinced of Iggy's chin, everytime Wlad landed the right, he looked be rocked or at least shaken up, if Wlad would of followed up more, he probably would of been able to finish him.

Valuev and Wlad have the best chance of beating Tua, there jabs would keep him at bay, leaving little room for Tua to get in and land that big shot, though if he lands on Wlad, the fight would turn into a nightmare for Wlad.:yep

 

Yes, he can, but it's no guarantee
