joe louis vs david tua

Ustinov was older than Tua and never boxed. Playing a fine part in Spartacus doesn't count.

 

Rahman was a puncher,Maskaev was a decent puncher,Izon's ko % is 70% .Tua has a great chin!

 

"An attempt at humour I suppose".

 

Sorry, Mac!
It's just how my mind wanders at times. Good Morning, to you. How do you see this fight panning out?

 

Louis is a true great but Tua was a very powerful block of granite.You have to think that if Tony Galento ,who was slow of both hand and foot could drop Louis then Tua has a good chance of replicating it..Tony had Joe down but lacked the speed to capitalise on it.Tua was no speedster , but he was appreciably quicker than Two Ton, if he hurts Louis he will be on him like a rash.
I think Louis's skills as a boxer give him this fight, he would jab Tua as he advances and Joe's jab was a real weapon it busted up faces.
Tua seemed to lose appetite for the fray after sampling a few of Lennox's shots, maybe after getting past that jab only to run into Joe's , hard and fast combos,Tua would become more conservative?
I'll pick Louis by decision , but Tua is dangerous right up until the last bell.

 

Very much how I see it.:good

 

Can you imagine a guy like Blackburn--and his assistant Seamon--having months to probe holes and find weakness in David Tua's game?

 

I put him on ignore some time ago, it's just infantile sewage that doesn't even have the saving grace of being interesting or humorous.
Hopefully he will soon get as bored with the forum as we are with him.

 

Don't even bother trying to humour the fool Mac. Anyone who seriously believes no one ever managed to land their best shot on either Vitali's or Tua's chin dwells on another planet.

For a start Lewis landed some serious artillery on VK's chin, and he kept coming.

 

Is it wrong?

 

We will see.

 

OK, you've got me.
A 2000 Tua MAY have bested a 1940 Joe.
So ******* what?
A 1980 Leonard would have bested a prime at that time Armstrong.
A 1982 Hagler would have bested a prime at that time Greb.
A 1983 M. Spinks would have bested a prime at that time Langford.
Do I need to ******* go on??
