    Different result, or does Tua replicate Rocky's win without sustaining the knockdown?

    I don't see Moore causing a kd over tua that s for sure. I think tua takes it. Maybe Archie manages to catch him a few times with solid shots but not enough to hurt him. Tua drops him heavily around the 8 th after behind behind on the cards slightly.

    Moore outboxes Tua early but then Tua catches him and stops him late.

    Moore likely has things his own way against a passive and plodding Tua for a few rounds then lowers his guard and goes to sleep.

    I think Tua slips into a brainless sleep walk following Moore around the ring and being outboxed all the way to a decision shut out loss.

    That could happen, though I assume we're taking the best possible version of each fighter.
