    Could George withstand that left hook for 15rds?
    Would he lose a decision without going down?

    Prime for prime 15rds.

    Prime in shape and most importantly motivated Tua could very well force a ref stoppage

    Two great chins, but only one of them with power. Tua would stop him late in the fight.

    Both guys could take it but Tua had more fire power and overall the better skills. I think after a number of furious rounds Tua would do a number on Chuvalo who would be backed against the ropes. I see Tua either pounding Chuvalo out or the ref coming in to stop the fight after Tua lays a number of unanswered power punches on Chuvalo.

    If Tua lands right I could imagine him being the first fighter to knock Chuvalo out, it's not as though he was some elusive defensive master.
