David Tua vs Denis Boytsov. Who wins?

Boytsov by UD, he has excellent skills and good power, Tua won't be able to just walk through Boytsov's quick, hard combinations. I think Boytsov could stay out of range of Tua's power zone for the first 5 rounds or so while landing significant punches and that's when I think Tua will be worn down and turn into a plodding fighter looking to land one big shot.

 

Tua by KO

 

all that you said here can be applied to Darroll Wilson at 1996 , except the top 10 rank that comes for boystov cause we're in a time when the best usually don't fight the best.

Tua by KO.

 

I think the fight comes down to two factors:

1. How good is Boytzov's chin? So far he's never been stunned, but he's never really been tested, either. He does seem to have the build to be durable, but that is speculation.

2. Will he mix it up with Tua?


If Denis uses his skills and superior speed, then i see him winning a 10-2 decision or something, but Tua is always dangerous and could knock him down/out at any point.

 

At this point Tua...but Boytsov is only 23 and it would be close!

I really love Boytsov's patience in the ring, extremely impressive for a 23 year old. He will be champion, IMO.

He needs to work on his speed though, I feel he has gotten a bit slower since adding some weight, he used to be lightning fast.

 

just watched some of boytsov's fights, gotta say i was quite impressed. not to sure if he could hang with tua though, he could definitely give tua a run for his money thats for sure. the thing that makes tua so dangerous is that he can knock you through the canvas at any point of the fight, and going by tua's experience going the distance, i would go with tua. boytsov has yet to be tested, and a fight with tua would be WAY to much of a risk for a young buck like boytsov
