    He says this is his last professional fight. Is there hope of an upset?

    The real question is..does Tua stand a chance against Barrett?

    Barrett has been in with tougn Euro-level opposition and has proven himself competent, Tua has not. Barrett will in a UD or late TKO.

    yes, i feel barret UD's tua, tua's overrated and if barrets come in the shape ofhis life i feel he beats him, then again could easily be a first round KO for tua

    I think Tua walks all over Barret, just like his recent opponents have done. But on the basis of beating a guy who is now an established gatekeeper, people should not make threads about Tua murdering Klits or anyone in the top 5 for that matter. Tua will need to prove more, and I hope he doesn't get a title shot based on this fight and his string of weak opposition. At least Tua is giving himself a chance to succeed by getting into good shape this time. Arreola should take notes. BTW I think Tua and Arreola would be an exciting fight to watch.

    Barrett hits hard and Tua CAN be hurt but Tua will spark him quicker than Haye did.

    I hope Monte tries to leap the ropes again....that **** had me rolling on the floor:lol:

    Tua not only walks all over Barrett, he stomps all over him. He'd do the same to Arreola, too.

    Tua looks to be in good shape, powerful as hell, still, and pretty darned sharp, if you ask me.

    After he mows down Barrett, I hope Tua gets Peter or Arreola in the ring, at which time he proceeds to show them what a real powerhouse puncher does to his opponent.


    :good

    What does this say about David Haye's legitimacy in the Heavyweight division if a 40-year-old Tua sparks him out in less than 5 rounds?
