Charles by wide dec. Tua would have only a puncher's chance.

Charles by decision by out-boxing Tua with jabs and counter combinations on the outside. Also, both fighters were capable to last 15 rounds.

The great Ezzard Charles by a wide margin. But, if David Tua catches him with that wide left hook....zzzzzzzzz! For Charles!

I figure Charles wins a clear decision. Tua of course has a puncher's chance, Charles is the better fighter and most likely wins.

The smart money would say Charles. And that is probably correct considering Tua wasn't able to do anything with Chris Byrd. But Charles was much smaller than Byrd, and he wasn't as elusive as Byrd. So I think there would be more drama in the contest for sure.
