50/50 fight. If Tua comes to fight, he wipes Wlad out early. If Tua fights timidly like he did against Lennox, or, unwisely tries to out box Wlad he might get stopped late after losing 8 or 9 straight rounds.
Wlad controls him and fights him like every other shorty he ever faced. I like Tua, but, Klitschko on points.
Tua creams him and its very easy to explain why. Peter - a very poor mans version of Tua took Wlad to the brink and only lost because Wlad repeatably jumped all over his neck and back. Tua had better stamina , skills and a better more powerful hook than Peter. But most importantly we saw what he did to excessive hungers and clinchers when he destroyed Ruiz in the opening round. Only two outcomes here. Wlad gets stopped or Wlad gets DQ'd for holding on for dear life for every minute of the contest.
Is the "Tua coming to fight" the same Tua who gets jabbed to death by every fighter until landing a hook late on? Tua has nothing to trouble Wlad.
So does that mean Stiverne and Charles Martin were better than Tua as well?? lolololol What about Wilder? Peter would never have gotten even a sniff of a world title during the Lewis era.
Would he not? Moorer did, Both did, Ruiz did, Bentt did... Bean, ancient Tucker, Reed, Mavrovic, Schultz, Ferguson all had title shots. I could go on but I won't embarrass you anymore.
