    I think nobody can beat this man at heavyweight in an MMA bout.
    Not Fedor, not Brock Lesnar,
    He has an awesome chin, monstrous power and a bulky body with thick legs.
    If anybody tries to grapple and tackle him to the ground, I can see their fate being met with a big left hook or a big right hand.

    1punch from Tua with those gloves = good night...

    What are your thoughts??

    He'd get destroyed, because he isn't trained.

    Vitali has the best chance in MMA, because he can kick as well.

    what the ****.... do you know anything about mma at all? brock would just take him down - at will - and pound his face into either submission or stoppage, there really wouldnt be a fight there, the fact he has thick legs means **** all....

    brock is an absolute beast, his wrestling is world class & the fact tua has ko power & is powerful would only help while the fight is standing, brock would just take him down & keep him there

    as for fdor, hes beat bigger, stronger guys than tua, hes the most acomplished mma fighter in the world & u think tua beats him ? hes got a punchers chance at best

    wait and see what happens to toney if he fights in the ufc, if he gets a one fight deal that he is talkin about, dana will give him a wrestling based figher & have him shown up in a round imo

    He might kill somebody, with the type of gloves they're using.

    exactly, to say he would beat everyone is just naive to how far the sport has evolved. someone with a purely boxing background would get figured out really quickly

    :patsch:roll::lol:

    Pro boxers = world class athletes
    UFC fighters = former bouncers on drugs
    Tua would kill people in UFC with those gloves, he shouldnt be allowed to fight

    He'd prolly perform at the level of a Mark Hunt.

    that statement shows just how little you actually know about how much the sport has evolved
    its like someone saying that boxers are just thugs... its a rediculous statement
    the bouncers as skilled as GSP, Anderson silva or lyoto machida.. . honestly, some peoples complete lack of knowledge of this sport amazes me

    i can't imagine what tua would do with those little gloves to his opponents. if you get him on the ground he's fine. but if he touches you, then it could be a ko that makes people worry about the condition of the victim. hell, i think paulie malanagi could be a ko artist with those gloves.

    MMA is just like the WWE, they can make money but they're not real profesional fighters... the owners of UFC have done a great job of promoting it and making money of it and the fans love it.. but that doesnt mean they are real pro fighters.. any profesional boxer in his prime can beat any mma fighter with MMA rules... david tua, tyson, holyfield, bowe all of them will win easily against any mma heavy weight and the same goes in all the other weight classes... one punch from a profesional boxers with those small gloves is gonna put the mma fighter to sleep and could harm him really bad

    MMA is making money and is popular but dont get caught up with the hype they cant fight a pro boxer unless is a lower level one
