Heavyweights : James Tillis vs. David Tua

[Woldemar]

Prime vs prime.Who wins?

Prime Tillis could outbox Tua. I had him losing 6-4 by rounds to prime Tyson. And he was able to take Tyson's best shots. While Tillis was a bit faded then. Of course, that doesn't mean, that Tua couldn't KO Tillis. But if Tua didn't land clean, he would be outboxed quite likely.

[Nile4000]

At his best, Tillis by UD, 7-3, or 8-4.

I think Tillis could outbox Tua. Not that he couldn't get caught and KO'd, but I think that's the only way Tua wins.

Tillis did of course go the distance vs young Mike, but was stopped many other times, before and after that fight. So perhaps it's a bit flattering to him.

That said he obviously had the speed and boxing skills to win a lot of rounds and decision Tua, though Tua is in the fight with his power as said
