    I like Tua also. Hard to see how Lyle wins with an inferior chin and inferior punching.

    Yeah, I can't see Lyle just outboxing Tua for 12 rounds with the hopes of getting a decision. He's not Lennox Lewis. I think that at some point, these guys are going to start exchanging big shots, and Tua is not getting the short end of the deal

    Lyle was a pretty decent boxer, and big and strong. I think he's capable of outboxing Tua. Rahman did. Byrd did. Oquendo did for 9 rounds.

    Lyle did decision Oscar Bonavena...on a good night, it's concievable that Lyle could have outpointed Tua...not, however knock him down or out.

    It can probably be one of Tua's late stoppages after losing on the scorecards for not reaching Lyle , but after he reaches Lyle he wins.
    Unlike Shavers and Foreman , Tua won't even go down , Lyle will , however.

    Each fighter takes some good shots but Lyle pulls out the decision.
    Also, any man hit in the right spot, like George on the temple in the Lyle fight, can go down. Even Tua.
