    Shock of shocks, Charles White is all over this one.

    Tua seems abnormally upset. I wonder if sitting on the sideline and watching lesser opponents (in terms of talent and excitement) wind up with title shots is gnawing at him nowadays.

    Edit: That guy has an awesome lil goatee for what it's worth.

    Tua looks like a mini- Old George Foreman in the face when that clip first starts

    It looked to me that Tua (Mini-Foreman) got into Cameron's head. I think Cameron looked a little nervous during the interview.

    I'm so dissapointed in Tua's career it's hard to see him in this posture.

    I'd really wish he'd comeback but it won't happen.

    At least he was no 2 in the division at one time.

    If he's going to do it let him do it. No more over a year layoffs. No more holding back. If he wins this bout keep fighting until you have a top contender or a champ fight you.

    I'm trying as much as I can not to get hyped because I know it won't happen(him coming back strong winning a title,beating good oppoenets).

    It's just whatever.

    I have little hope. I bet he still hits as hard if not harder than anyone in the division. I don't know if he can get motivated enough to be a serious threat.

    Tua looked mean,angry and generally frustrated with Cameron but I gotta say he looked a bit chubby to me and the number in the age deprtmentt ain't helping him either.

    True, but the fight isn't until October, so there is plenty of time to get in better shape.

    Yeah but it was postponed and HE said he was ready last week.

    If that's ready he is in big trouble.

    I see what you mean, but Im sure he was just saying that. He knows he isn't in peak physical condition yet. And besides, it is hard to tell how heavy a man is when he is in a suit.
