Did Mike Tysons Camp Reach Out to David Tua? The Truth Revealed

[@familyactive415]

Mike is a beast but Tua is WARRIOR that would of deff been one of the best fights to go down!!

[@wolfgangvonuce9803]

Mike is an idol of mine but honestly i cannot see Mike knocking out Tua no way,its like trying to crack a concrete ball. Ibeabucchi and lewis threw everything at Tua for 12 long rounds with no knock-out and in my opinion they both hit harder than Mike

[@dariusp422]

Yea that’s your opinion but Ike was on peds hard and Lennox was good at setting up shots and had reach

[@liveyourlife5818]

ibeachucchi was never the same. he went mentally ill after tua socked him up so much. kind of sad

[@officialAyTone]

Lewis never threw and power shots then entire fight he kept using by his jab to Marian distance and when tua came in come in close he would clinch

[@lnaf]

Tua the Real Terminator all day

[@Sokuben-xr8ly]

Mike Tyson and David Tua both empresses people, the way they play the game it's incredibly amazing and entertaining 😎 same as the old Joe Frazier

[@tez1seven]

Mike didn't want none of that David Tua smoke 😂

Facts

[@palmtrees6228]

Na I think Mike was in a position where he didn’t have to fight Tua but if Tua beat Lennox we would’ve seen Tua vs Tyson instead of Tyson vs Lennox but if it was UFC everyone fighting everyone

[@SuyashSingh-m5y]

​​@@palmtrees6228It's not ufc.....boxing was different in UFC you literally have dana's preferences, not everyone's fighting everyone just cherry picked matchmaking for preferred champs and for making ppvs not according to the rankings & contenders in line

[@palmtrees6228]

@@SuyashSingh-m5y Thats true but I think if Tua and Tyson were in the UFC they would’ve most likely fought. Boxing is notorious for not making fights that should be made

[@SuyashSingh-m5y]

@@palmtrees6228 yepp you're right there, if we look into it....Dana would def make that happen for the ppvs, unless something like connor vs aldo rematch happens but yeahh UFC is a better place for making superfights happen so that's an advantage for sure

[@kiannolivingston1506]

Thats a tough one i dont know who would win but it would have been a super bout

[@Jloimata]

Make it happen now so they can stop comparing Tua to Tyson...🇼🇸🇦🇸🙏❤️💙

[@fatalexception1269]

Tyson was slowing down by the time Tua was ramping up. A 1985 Tyson against prime Tua would have been awesome.

[@DaveBlazejko]

Tua all day

[@mathematics557]

This is one of the top 3 fights I wish would of happen in the 1990s. Both these dudes were absolute powerhouses with quick hands and devastating knockout power. While tyson is faster, tua is more durable. Tyson is a faster starter but tua has better punch output as the fight progresses.This fight could of been a trilogy within itself. Respect to both these titans 💯💯💪🏾💪🏾

[@sircefiro]

David would've been world champ but it was Lennox's time where he had the reach to keep him out, I'm no expert but I doubt Mike could've knocked out David, I dunno what David is up to at the moment but I'd say he'd end Jake Paul pretty quick at any time

[@SinicizedTurk]

Tyson was a hard man to pin down if you were a risky prospect. Between his prison release and his title fight against Lewis, every opponent was carefully handpicked for him. I remember Tua saying he wanted Tyson next if he had beaten Lewis in 2000.

[@MarkMark-e8j]

Would have been another legendary fight, that's for sure

[@linuswilliams5897]

The biggest "What If" in sport. Would have been a great fight.

[@levihawkins6211]

One of the greatest travesties those two men never fought

[@AveryAnderson-x5c]

Mike and Dave.

[@Thehomiebrucelee]

This would be epic!!!!

[@ba-dum-tss9169]

I hate seeing this everytime because now i spend the whole day thinking about why they never fought it could've been the greatest match up ever!!!!

[@David-g5t6b]

Ive heard boxing coaches say tysons camp ddnt wnt it, probably didnt make sense cos they were both top 5 but in different sanctions

[@lesterfaapaiaga9681]

I reckon Tua would’ve beaten Tyson

[@okusfayreno8599]

💯 mike wouldn't of been able to bully tua

[@grandzeno9925]

Politics. Tua was a huge risk for Mike

[@cj8172]

Exactly

[@oeshkoer]

So was Ike and prime Lewis

[@grandzeno9925]

@@oeshkoer Tua's problem was poor management. Tua was a huge threat but wouldn't bring much revenue compared to others. Fighting Tua wasn't worth the gamble, high risk low gains.

[@oeshkoer]

@@grandzeno9925 in other words his price was too high

[@grandzeno9925]

@@oeshkoer in other words sport 'POLITICS' 😑

[@JamesSmith-e3j]

We all know tua would win

[@gt57-1yk]

kevin barry bad management ,youre very new to tua by your questions,bit embarrassing other wise good to hear from the champ

[@maloautasilaufou-ot1dj]

Hey peeps Tyson fought Lennox Lewis Tyson got knocked out ! Tua fought Lewis ! Lennox did not knock out Tua so that’s the difference! So who’s got a stronger upper body uh ???? Go Tua Men

[@seymorbutts1027]

Tua wasn't undisputed at 21 Tua never won a HW crown, stop talking shet

[@sailosivakataletale3803]

There are lots of boxers that Mike can’t beat and Tua is one of them..Tua goes 12 rounds without staggering…

[@BradSnowslett]

Mike was more technical and powerful faster knocking someone out is putting pressure and if anyone were to ko tua it would be tyson

[@freelancerconverse4413]

Not much urgency on Tua camp to make it happen, not blaming Tua but management could’ve done more.

[@rogertorykavanagh-butler3988]

Wanted it back then .be dam good if it happens now ...get it on ...the world will go boxing mad you can bet your bottom dollar 😎👍

[@positrac-b9b]

Tua is the bigger guy

[@jPINK11220]

2 great heavy weights.

[@Unknown-uk3kg]

in due time uso se'i uma jake paul lol

[@henryharrison6225]

Mike went to jail.he was never the same.woukd be a good fight.tua hit harder mike speed much superior. Both legends.

[@BoydKyle-s1c]

This would've been a very interesting fight, Tua would've upset the boxing world, Tyson may have been knocked out.

[@jeramysanchez4718]

It never happened with Butterbean either. Both would’ve been good, short fights.

[@cj8172]

Mike respected Tua, I think his team ducked Tua because they knew Tua was the real deal

[@raystar362]

Man every 1 loves mike but tua just something different hands down tua prob would of destroyed mike maybe mike camp was like nah this guy can punch

[@okusfayreno8599]

Tua would of beaten tyson 💯

[@nyranstanton203]

im sure Tua could take a few from Tyson....I'm really not sure Tyson could take a few from Tua.

[@TupuolaSilifaiva]

Tua had poor management

[@sionem.fatongiatau8666]

Tua still looking for a belt lol. Get over it , you missed the train. Why talk so much now. Tua was a little boy when Tyson was word champion at 20 years old. Tua couldn’t even win a belt… get over it. Mike Tyson will always be the favorite of the world 🌍

Mike Tyson would've beat David Tua.

[@lokidd3644]

😂😂😂😂

[@rollynielsen]

Are you sure about that? Lol

[@BoxingGOATEdits]

its an interesting question. Are we talking 80s Iron Mike or late 90s Tyson?

[@Bud_Jablonski]

@@BoxingGOATEdits Beloved Tyson will forever have excuses 😅

[@FriedLdRz]

​ @BoxingGOATEdits 80s tyson 90s tyson the same, difference was.. he fought real fighters like Holyfield in the 90s & was exposed, remember Lewis and Holyfield were older than Tyson, big Tyson fan.. but not the type of fan that would make excuses for Tyson!! "Prime tyson" "if his coach was still alive" "pre prison Tyson" just to name a few of the excuses lol Tua's down fall, he had bad management!! He was out of Shape against Lewis, and had 3 chances to fight for world title but turned it down cause he was out of Shape and fighting another battle in court!! Saw this on a podcast

[@damiangreen5940]

Tyson throws fights
