Usyk vs Tua

Uysk seems to encourage this but only with fighters he is pretty sure he can take their power
Bellew is a good example of this
Once he knew what Bellew was all about, he set to work

Uysk would be an absolute mad man to use this strategy against Tua however and would more than likely keep him at length
Jab and move, frustrating him until an ample opportunity arises


Really intriguing match up tbh and not one I've ever even thought of

 

The ample opportunity doesn’t arrive, Usyk has to settle for a UD here and be on the look out for that left hook like his life depends on it

 

Id probably have to agree with that
He slips up he gets counted out

 

What about the 'Puny' Byrd who is naturally smaller than Usyk? The 'Puny' Byrd beat Tua

 

Byrd's modern style and technqies dominated Tua. Joe Goosen kept telling Tua to lean to your left, outside Byrd's right jab and punch - hooks to body and head. Tua couldn't do it. Basic old school stupidity.

Tua's a basic slugger, he would have been successful in in earlier era's but by the early 90's his style was already a relic.

Usyk puts a career ending beatdown on Tua.

 

Tua at his best, the ike Tua v the best Bird an I know who I’m picking

 

Geez what's next? Usyk vs Frazier,,Usyk vs Ali? the guy has done nothing at heavyweight to warrant any matchups with a good fighter.

 

Byrd 2 Fights later defeated Holyfield.....Think you underestimate Chris Byrd.

 

I’m don’t underrate Byrd, I was saying that because someone called Usyk puny when comparing him to Tua and I was saying that if Usyk is puny then Byrd is even more and he still beat Tua I was saying that Usyk is naturally bigger than Byrd

 

With Tua

One punch is literally all it takes

 

Oleg Maskaev lasted 11.

 

Anyone who bets on Tua has no clue how boxing works. This is a surefire Usyk win, about as surefire a result as any you're ever going to get.

I'd honestly give Chisora a better chance than Tua, and I think Chisora gets merced.

 

Did you fail to see how Jeff Wooden would survive the early rounds against Tua as well?

 

Right - that does it

I'm bringing Tua out of retirement to fight Usyk this Friday

You guys have driven me over the edge.....

 

Tua couldn't land this 'one punch' when he was plodding around in the 90's - how is he going to land against Usyk?

Its like comparing an advanced, highly programmed, modern methods astronaut and a 'hope to hit' taxi driver.
