A prime Tua would probably beat Peter, but a prime Tua never accomplished what Peter already has, winning a title on the big stage. I think Tua has every advantage over Peter, aside from the heart factor, Tua practically gave up against both Bryd and Lewis when was getting his ass beat, as much as most people hate Peter, you can never say he gave up or didnt put up a tough competitive fight with anyone he fought, he was alot of flaws, but his power, chin, heart, and overall toughness earned him the number 2 spot in the division, so everytime you want to make fun of Peter, you should also make fun of the Heavyweight division while your at it.
Punisher, I agree. Your last two posts were excellent descriptions of Peter. He certainly has his flaws, but he has heart and power, which is more than you can say about a lot heavyweights today. I am always surprised by the amount of hate directed at him.
He's one of the most hated fighters out there. But regardless, he continues to win, got off the floor 3 times, and is willing to fight anybody. I'd say he's a credit to the heavyweight division. If people are going to pick apart his flaws, then they might as well pick apart 95 percent of the heavyweight division.
