    In what round does the Tuaminator end proceedings?

    I think this could be another 1 round ko here.

    Walcott embarrasses him.

    There's a good chance he turns and spins him all night.Walcott was a ring mechanic, Tua a one dimensional hooker.

    I was royally impressed at how Tua destroyed Ruiz and Moorer, but seriously, if Monte Barrett could but him on his ass, what do you think the vastly superior JJW would have done to him?

    Jersey was stopped by inferior punchers to Tua so I've no doubt.

    Walcott was hot And cold,was not consistent And his chin was not sturdy. Abe Simón stopped him. Tua kills him

    Walcott prior to 44 was not a full-time professional boxer..

    In 1936, a year in which Jersey Joe broke his arm and was trying to feed his children on nine dollars of welfare a week, he still managed to rack up nine fights—six in the last six months of the year. He would work in a factory all day, eat little, and box in the evenings with little preparation or training. Fatigue came quickly to Jersey Joe Walcott through this time and many of his bouts turned into a battle against his blood sugar and empty stomach more than they were against his opponent.

    After World War 2 Walcott was given financial leeway by a local racketeer and was able to fully focus on his boxing career. From that point on, aside from 2 disputable and later avenged decisions against Elmer Ray and Joey Maxim, he only lost to ATGs in Louis, Marciano and Charles. He also beat Charles twice.

    beating ezzard charles isn't an excuse. Idk what is so great about tua that you would honestly have him winning this fight. He couldn't stop a chinny lewis or a middleweight yet he DESTROYS walcott?

    are you trolling

    The guy fought for pocket change so he could feed his family. He wouldn't eat days before a fight and rarely got to train. Seem like pretty legitimate excuses to me.
