    Does Tua get to be prime too or is it just Mike Tyson?

    Tua had a head like a cement block. He didn't even look hurt when he fought Ibeabuchi.

    War for the ages? This is a brutal mismatch.

    I have to disagree with you here J.I think Tua would give him a good fight.

    Is Tyson going to fight that Tua? Tyson in his prime was stopped by Buster Douglas.

    Did 88 Tyson even stop anyone with Tua's chin? Look at Tua in that video then compare his physique as a professional.

    Probably. Michael Spinks, and Larry Holmes were knocked out the only time.

    Pinklon Thomas had a hell of a chin. He took bombs from Mike Weaver and even when washed up, Bowe and Holyfield teed off on him like they were hitting the heavy bag and he didn't fall. Tyson put him down for a 10 count. Berbick was also another durable foe.

    Larry Holmes had a great chin but Tua was another level to Larry when it came to absorbing shots.
