    Tua is way too short. He couldn't land anything solid on Lennox as Lewis was always in a backwards motion or just barely stepping out of the way, and Fury is even taller than Lewis and has better evasive qualities IMO.

    You know what I mean.

    He’d have gotten hit.

    Lewis got hit.

    There’s a difference between getting hit, and getting hit with a perfectly timed shot with the perfect leverage and power etc.

    Tua would obviously have hit whoever he fought. But without landing that perfect left hook, he wouldn’t have been able to have knocked him out. He had zero opportunity to hit Lewis with it.

    The size difference would have been staggering. Tua didn’t have Mike Tyson’s speed and style to get inside and go to the body etc.

    Lewis fought cautiously and just kept him away from him with his jab.

    I don’t think he’d have got anywhere near Fury.

    I get it, but fury was hit by wallin and Cunningham. I am not seeing any evidence that he is unhittable other than the size discrepancy and that is fair enough but that's a strategy that is destined to let you down sooner or later imo

    Of course he’s not unhittable, But IMHO, Tua wasn’t going to catch him with his small 70” reach.

    Wallin and Cunningham were bigger guys.

    Fury also has a good defence when he’s switched on.

    True. But I think that Lewis would have stopped him before he’d have had the opportunity to have landed it.

    Triangle theories in Boxing ain't worth ****! Are you seriously saying that you believe that Wilder would beat the best Lennox Lewis? If so, I'll never take another word you post seriously again and nor should anyone else.

    Fury would beat the living **** out of tua and stop him.

    He'd get pizza faced Chisora style. 5'10" midget vs 6'9" 280lb of fighting man

    No contest.

    While he has power, there is no proof either way as far as who hits harder between Wilder, Rahman, and McCall. You would have to have them all punch a pressure censor for that.
