    Jimmy takes a clear decision here. Tua would be befuddled.

    Totally agree. :good

    Tua would be "swinging at nothing" as Ali said of Liston in their '64 fight.

    Young by a lopsided decision. Tua wouldn't be able to hit him "with a handfull of rice" like they say.

    So much a boxing clinic even the judges would have to give Young this one, though I'm sure they'd hate to

    Definitely a clear decision for Young. he would look good here. probably really wide too. Tua is a guy that Young would always beat. A good style for young

    Awful for Tua. Not only was Jimmy an elusive target, but he could take a helluva punch to both the head and body, and also had tremendous survival skills and powers of recuperation, as he showed after getting stunned at the very outset of round seven by Foreman, then completely reversing the course of the action by round's end. There's no way this doesn't go to the final bell, and no way Tua takes it on the cards when the scheduled distance ends.

    Tua misses a body shot and somehow Young turns his head in between the ropes anyway

    Tua by KO . Young might win a Byrd gift decision if he just lasts the distance but could never win against Tua like Byrd couldn't. And Byrd was a superior fighter to Young .

    *260 pound Tua that can go 12 rounds... the Tua was knocking out guys like Moore and Ruiz in 1 round and has KO'ed 1/2 of his opposition in the first two rounds..that Tua... Tua by KO.
