    I lost faith in this forum when I saw Chuvalo favoured over Wilder and Fury.

    He was 34 in the second fight with fury. Again, he didn’t suffer nearly the same amount of wear and tear that tua did. He didn’t have as many fights nor did he fight guys like ike ibeabuchi, hasim rahman, or Lennox Lewis.
    How does any of this cancel out the fact that fury was horribly out of shape against wilder? If it didn’t make much of a difference than why was wilder completely dominated in the second fight?
    That’d be like me saying both Oliver McCall and Deontay wilder have a solid punch. It implies they’re not far apart. This is disingenuous and you know it. There’s a big difference between a good chin and a great one.

    I’m ready to go back to my usual Scott ledoux vs chuck Werner type threads. At least the opinions are somewhat honest

    Fck I hate when people break up posts the way you just did . I’m not even gonna read all this. If you think that Wilder was glass chinned despite the fact that he took monster shots from Ortiz, Stiverne and Fury all while giving it back in spades then go for it.

    I said he had a good chin. If you paid attention and took the time to read you’d know.

    Wilder's constantly looking to land that big right and your not gonna KO Tua like, that, he has too good a chin. I think Tua stops Wilder late

    Wilder makes Rahman look like Pernell Whitaker.

    Wilder (surprisingly or not) by an honestly very wide decision. Wilder has only two real punches (long jab and long/and short right). But he does move his feet and that is kryptonite to David Tua. He doesn't have "good" feet but he does have fast feet. Wilder stylistically is a bad matchup for Tua

    I think Tua is simply too tough and Wilder's defence has too many holes in it for it to go any other way than a Tua KO. Wilder's chin is decent but nothing to write home about either. I reckon Tua gets to him before Wilder can do the same.

    I think people are over estimating Wilders chin a tad, I'm not saying he can't take a punch. But Fury isn't a big puncher although the weight difference has to be taken into consideration. But I think it was Fury's physical presence that wore him out more than anything.

    But I don't think Wilder has come close to fighting someone with one punch KO power like Tua.

    Where as Tua has fought some big punchers without being troubled like Ibeabuchi for example.

    And then you woke up.....

    That is the difference of watching fights on youtube instead of seeing the unfold live...............

    Tua was and always will be a one trick pony. Fact.

    You stick a jab in him and he is done following you around like a puppy .Fact.

    He got outboxed by Jeff Wooden and got a gift, Glass chinned Oleg/Rahman/Oquendo all out boxed him , gassed out late and he finally was able to get to them in the 11th hour, same with journeyman David Izon................he stopped a green Huggybear who was later beat not by one but two former Middleweights, let that sink in for a moment.

    Got clowned by pillow fist Heavy Cream Puff Byrd.....

    Put up one of the worst Heavyweight title challenges in decades vs Lewis, tasted a couple of rights hands and decides to just survive to go back to the Golden Corral buffett.

    While all the above clowns (Lewis excluded) were able to pick up a ABC straps the great One Trick Pony was never ever able to do that.

    So that leaves us with a loss vs the green Super Nutter from Africa which took all live out of him and he channeled that into getting hog fat.

    Wilder wins ten out of ten, it will be similar to the Stiverern fight or a copy of the Lewis debacle after Tua gets a right hand sampling and goes for the silent agreement. End off.
