David Tua vs Sam Peter who would win right now?

[Dark Lord Al]

Tua will ko him inside 5

[Wayne]

Right now? Tua would probably get his first KO loss. If he could shape up and return to form I'd say he probably wins.

Neither are very good boxers, both can bang i would of said they both have good chins uptill Peters last fight so i give Tua a slight advantage.

[The Fightfan]

I couldn't say off the bat.I personally don't think Tua can be knocked out by Peter.If Peter fought the way he did in the Toney II fight using his jab constantly and Tua came in as he did against Rahman in their second fight.I think Peter would win hands down but if Tua comes in good shape not even great shape I think he'd KO Peter. I believe it's do or die for Tua right now and I don't think their is heavyweight beside's Klitschko who could beat him. When he's in shape

[Wayne]

Please- any fighter with some speed and good defense beats Tua. He's heavy-handed and iron-chinned- that's it. That's why Chris Byrd beat him and Fres Oquendo should have beaten him. So fighters like Sultan Ibragimov and Ruslan Chagaev would have a field day with Tua.

In the HW division nowadays, that's often more than enough to get the job done.

True, but I think we can all agree that 'finesse' isn't a word we'd associate with Tua.

Tua will ko him inside 5

I agree here i think Tua would take Peters best but Peter wouldn't take Tua's

[Markusdarkus]

Any sane fan would go for Peter he has been active and fought at a much higher level, prime for prime id go for Tua thats a given.

Unless Tua can find his absolute peak only a nutter (Or Pavlik fan) would pick him over Peter as limited he is.

[OumaFan]

I'm surprised so many people are picking Tua. Have you guys seen how he looked against Cisse Salif, Robert Hawkins, Wheeler or Griffis, I mean it took him a long time to get rid of Wheeler and Griffis and he didn't even look that close to stopping Salif or Hawkins. These aren't top level guys. He doesn't look that explosive to me anymore.

[Mar]

I like tua, but peter no question.

[CountryBoy]

David might be getting old an rusty, But he should knock out Peter in three to four round easily, Peter is just over-rated both power,skill and chin wise.
