TUA vs. PETER

Tua knocks him out pretty easy, KO2. Peter thinks he is invincible.

 

Peter would do the same to Tua as Hasim Rahman did to him in Philly on the undercard of Hopkins-Hakkar. Tua is 35 years old and at 5'9'' tall, he definitely would have to move his body, avoid his opponent left lead and counter fast with the trademark left hook... Happens that there is a misperception here given the fact that Jameel ( who is 6'6'' tall) dropped Peter, the paralell would be wisely Rahman-Tua II with Rahman jabbing all night long and knocking down Tua at the final bell, the result was a disputed draw but Peter-Tua would be in my view, a comfortable decision for Peter for the reasons already mentioned... Tua deserves a chance, yes.

 

Good post. You stole my thunder.

Peter got tagged and dropped by 6 foot 6 Jameel McCline. Tua is nine inches shorter than Jameel and not as mobile. Plus, Tua's hands aren't as fast as they used to be. I think Peter boxes his way to a decision in this one.

 

I'd like to see it if he beats somebody more impressive than Fox or Montoya. Tua in top form is good for boxing. :good
