    Damn Tua wasted his career for some dumb ass reason. Barrett is a total tomato can and there is no excuse for a draw.

    I bet my boy Rahman is licking his chops. Rahman would have KO'd Tua had he been in there tonight.

    All the respect in the world should be given to Barrett. Dude should have been a world champ at some point in his career but came up a little short. Very, very few people gave him even the slightest chance to make it through the first part of the fight against Tua (when Barrett himself said that he would win the match) and he ended up clearly winning the match. Anyone who calls Barrett a "bum" is an absolute idiot. Respect to Barrett. Congrats on a fine career.

    Moorer was in fact not far from being a bum when he made his comeback. Knocking him down at this stage was hardly an achievement, as he was never known from good chin, and he didn't improve when he took 3 years off to drink his problems away.

    Can't believe people was excited to see ShoTua... I still feared Barrett's health because he also looked shot recently, but it seems the Solis fight rather speaks volumes of the Cuban's shape, not Monte's.

    Anyway, respect to Two-Guns, and can we get rid of the Tua nonsense now that he's closing on a decade of no notable wins?

    Your jealousy is palpable!

    In your book beating four world champions and a slew of other top contenders makes you a bum.



    BTW, big props to Monte Barrett for leaving on a good note.

    All this talk of being a bum is a joke.

    He'd still be a fighter that could teach most fighters outside of the top 10 a lesson.

    I always like Barrett, he's just been over the hill a couple of years now. But never backed away from a challenge and always gave his best. He's got my respect.

    Thank you Two Gunz for many memorable fights and best wishes for your future, you deserved your retirement.
