You know i'm thinking Boytsov look great in his fight tonight. His style with Tua style has a making of a great fight. Yea i know Boytsov is not proven but he does have a great punch and is undefeated while Tua has a great knockout punch. So why not Tua vs Boytsov? Boytsov is rank top 10 in the heavyweight division. Who wins if it happens? I say Tua in 5.
Tua probably, it wouldn't be fair to really put Boytsov in that fight. His best opponent was Taras Bidenko, you don't go from fighting a featherfisted boxer/mover to David Tua. Boytsov is still very young for a heavy and inexperienced, I'd like to see a more gradual progression. It's a shame Bakhtov had to pull out tonight, Bakhtov is the type of opponent that exposes you if you are not the real deal, but if you are he's easily beatable. They need to find a sensible fight for Boytsov. No more easy fights, but nothing reckless either.
Well, Boytsov... unless Tua looks like he did last or better - in which case I think Tua wins. I am not sure we will ever again see Tua so fired up. Sadly.
Boytsov's got lenght and he is fairly quick, plus he can box, he is not just a big puncher, he could decision Tua if he needed. But if he elected to trade with Tua, then Tua would flatten him. Tua vs McCall, two big punchers with granite chins, that would be an interesting bout.
Boytsov's too young. He's in Germany so they'll bring him along slowly but if he was here they'd throw him to Klitschko and ruin him. American promoter's short sightedness and stupidity are a big reason for America's lack of boxing success these days.
Lol. Boytsov v Cameron is a better match. Young inexperienced fighter with good chin, good punch power, mediocre skills, unproven, against Tua = KO in 2.
