    Didn’t Ibeabuchi say the same thing a year or two back?

    I smell a long overdue rematch cooking. Possibly for the WBA Regular belt if the timing works out right. That seems to be the old timer heavyweight belt at the moment :lol:

    If he's got himself in that condition naturally, or at least fairly naturally, he's done well. I'm not really clued up on PEDS.

    But I hope he's not seriously considering a boxing comeback.

    Maybe all this big Saudi money, and YouTube boxing money that's around these days has got some old timers thinking about making a quick quid or two.

    Maybe His Excellency could put on a few over 50 classic bouts. Tua would certainly figure.

    Probably hoping to get on a Saudi card, the undercard fighters are getting paid well by the Saudi`s, they`ve got money to burn.

    Tua vs Roid Jones Jr would be hilarious. Over 20 years in the making!

    He looks like a Shaolin monk.

    It's speculation from the author because Tua has been getting in shape that's all. Tua himself hasn't said anything about considering a comeback.

    Doesn't matter what shape he's in since I can't imagine his footwork getting better with age.
