Thread: Good matchup Sam Peter v David Tua

I was just thinking how this blend of styles will make a top matchup. Tua is a solid powerful pro with great chin.
Peters come forward style , i think maybe Sam wud try to use boxing skills and jab rather than meet Tua head on
but it wud be a good fight maybe like Ibeabuchi v Tua
WOT DO YOU GUYS THINK ?

Right now at this moment you gotta side with Peter the way he fought Toney was a huge improvement IMO from the 1st time they met. Peter learned how to fire off from angles and put combinations together he looke like a all around fighter....

Tua now I don't know man, I mean hes tough as nails and all but that alone doesn't win you fights. It's strange how some fighters take longer on the comeback then others I mean Tuas been back for a while and hes still in the same position that he was when he cameback...

All in all I say Peter UD pretty decisive by 4 rounds or so.....

I cant wait to see Sam Peter fight again. Im just keen to see how/if he's still developing with the sort of speed we witnesed between those two Toney fights... I mean we got the Ali shuffle... What next, the shoulder roll?!

Tua does need to start stepping up his opposition but I dont think he's ready for Peter yet.

I think Sam Peter stops Tua Tua is at the end now

If Sam Peter ever gets to the point where he is using Shoulder Rolls...Coming in with head movement,,feints,,always working off his jab....All I can say is....The whole Heavyweight Division is in for an ass whipping...

He improved so much from the 1st Toney fight to the second...If he can imrove that much between his fights I give him till he is 28 and he would own that division hands down....

And he has a good chin to boot...IMO though it was unfair what the WBC has done to him I think he should move on he is capable of beating both briggs and Valuev.....Hell a world title is a world title.....get one then start with unfication

He's ranked No.2 by WBO. He should cut his losses and start with them. He's definately still the future of the heavy's (provided he stays at the lighter end of the division)

Forget Peter vs Tua lets have Peter Vs Wlad 2 and watch Peter destroy him this time Peter learned alot from that fight and has gone on to learn more when he's done with Wlad he can then destroy his big brother and have us rid of them

Why at the lighter end?...Peter has enough mass on him to bang with anyone and not worried about being dominated due to size difference.....Are there guys taller? Yes......But his physical mass is more than enough....6'2" and 245-250 is a big guy

Nah i mean provided he doesn't hit 30 and loose to the battle of the flab. He has that sort of frame where he should pay a fair bit of attention to conditioning.

Current version Peter Beats current Tua, If Tua gets into shape and has the desire he KO's Peter...Peter is slow and heavy handed and so is Tua(only not as slow)...Ibeabuchi gave Tua trouble because Ibeabuschi was a complete fighter and Peter is still a long way from that...Peter can be hurt Wlad hurt him badly in their last round and Toney stopped...remember Tua had Ike nearly out in their last round and Tua would dictate the pace wearing Peter out...Tua by 8 round KO.

At this point Peter is too good for Tua...Tua needs to keep busy and work on his fitness. Maybe he will be able to step up, but it will take a couple more tune ups to see where he is at...

Hasim Rahman stood Tua on his head second time around bar some extrordinary judging.

Peter is a better fighter than Rahman .

Both came in as Fat slobs and as far as the scoring goes Rahman did absolutely nothing from from the 5th round on except clinch, watch the fight again...Rahman should have had pts deducted at least if not DQ'd again watch the fight...Obviously If this version of TUA shows up gainst Peter he obviously does not win...
