I don't know but I sure as hell would have love to seen it ;)
It's a fight I always wanted to see too but I reckon Tyson would have beat Tua, far more skilled in his prime.
Tyson was a lot better....his hands were faster, his combos were better, his defense was a lot better.
yeah this would of been fight of the century!!!! imagine these two trading? toe to toe? :lickish:
Hands down...like him or not...Tyson in his prime woulda slaughtered Tua.
Personally...I think Ike Ibeabuchi woulda kicked the shit outta them both. ;D
.....I think Ibeabuchi would have gotten his ass handed to him by Tyson.
Ibeabuchi got frustrated with tough styles, he threw a TON of punches (many left him open to counter punches), and I think Tyson's speed would get to him.
But you never know....that would have been a hell of a fight....prime or no
And tua had a great chin and power. All of this is true, tyson did have the better skills but would he wear himself down or leave himself open trying for the ko? If he tired would tua have capitalized on this?Quote:

I think a prime tyson would've given MANY past/present heavyweights a problem..especially guys that didnt get their shots off and then clinch. I think a prime tyson ko's a prime tua.
Man Tua is a log. Restricted in ability and mobility and agility.
It's too bad we have to have to speculate.
a log?Quote:

In England a log is a huge shit. "I did one hell of a logger in there" for example, not sure what he means though :PQuote:

tyson without a doubt. prime tyson was a better all around fighter tua.
haha yeah i heard the word log used in that sense before lolQuote:

Tua by tko in the the 10th.

in his younger days, with amato or rooney and in his prime, tyson did not, and i repeat did not have any issues.. he didnt lack stamina, he didnt lack focus, he didnt lack heart..
he came well prepared in his prime, and tua wouldnt stand a chance. if we are talking prime tyson vs prime tua.
tyson would be so much faster, have much better timing.. cant see tua winning this unless its a lucky punch..
Tua has always struggled with movers and in his prime Tyson could move he was'nt always loading up like he was in late 90's onwardsQuote:

Tyson by handy decision every time...
Prime Tyson would beat the sh!t out of ANYONE .
Tyson all the way...
"My style is impetuous. My defense is impregnable, and I'm just ferocious"
"How dare these boxers challenge me with their primitive skills? It makes me angry. They're just as good as dead."
"My power is discombobulatingly devastating I could feel is muscle tissues collapse under my force. It's ludicrous these mortals even attempt to enter my realm."
HAHAHA he was awesome in his prime
Yea beating nobodys.Quote:

Tyson would K.O Tua. I would love to see a Tua- Morrision in there prime.
Worn-out Tyson would take a chunk off your ear, eat your kids, and have tatoos on his face.Quote:

Holmes was old shot an washed up if your bringing that win up lets bring up Lewis vs Tyson then
Tubbs was fat and only had 2 weeks notice to get ready for Tyson and if i remember was having drug problems
Tucker was ok but he hadn't beaten anybody when he fought Tyson only Douglas who was ahead at the time but he quit other than giving good showing against Tyson and Lewis he never beat top class opponent
Berbick was never good he had been sparked out in first round before Tyson got to him and lost every round against Holmes
Spinks was ok at heavyweight but he was really great at Lightheavy this was good win for Mike but Spinks only got title getting gifts of an old tired out Holmes
Bruno was ok but slow a robotic and he was never world class he had good jab and good power but overall was never world class and he failed everytime he stepped up to world class
Williams was quite good boxer but he had very very weak chin and i mean badly weak.
