    I don't get your point. Tua is a mismatch against anyone smaller than him....except when it happens. Seems a little double speakish.

    25 pounds lighter 209 pound Jeff Wooden fought Tua to a fight that was close on two cards and a draw on the third.

    Tua was defeated by 18 pounds lighter Chris Byrd.

    Tua is a proficient knockout artist against smaller men, except when it happens.
    Does it happen for no reason, is the outcome always determined by Tua?

    Chris Byrd, 6'1, 74" reach was able to beat Tua but Jack Dempsey, one of those magical immortals, 6'1 77" reach has no chance.

    K den.

    I do understand, but that isn't the point your raised in your post.

    Your comment was towards size.

    Hence why I mentioned Dempsey who was the same size as Byrd.

    I do not consider it to be in any way out of the question, that somebody like Andre Ward might have been able to beat him.

    Somebody having a different opinion than you does not make them a troll.

    There is no such thing as an opinion that is off-limits.

    He was 170.5 for Ishe Smith, unless they lied?

    So we know Mayweather can beat some one that out weighs him.
