Wladimir Klitschko vs David Tua - Dec 11 - Very Possible

At least the brothers actually ko their opponent 95% of the time.

 

That stumpy midget is going to get wooped just like Peter.

 

what I don't understand is why he is fighting for the Belt? He has done nothing for him to b rewarded with a fight for the HW Crown, unless K wants another easy fight.

 

After Povetkin bowing out and Haye preferring to fight for the London title, I think all one really has to do is agree to turn up and face him. That seems good enough at the moment. Tua's ranked #2 by WBO and appears willing to fight anyone, while other ranked fighters who many people consider to be more deserving - are declining the opportunity.

It seems fair to me.

 

Knowing Tua is ranked #2 by the WBO I don't see why Wlad doesn't just try to make him a mandatory. Might as well.

 

I'll agree that if Shannon Briggs can get a shot, Tua should also.

^ if those two lose wide (which is expected) hopefully it can open up the door for Solis, Adamek and other more legit challengers

 

Any new developments on this?

 

Officially Wlad is still scheduled against a TBA, so nothing yet. But the date at least looks official.

I'll update if it becomes official.

 

I'll do it!!! :hi:

If Tua or Solis or someone hasn't signed in a week I'll start training my ass off and practicing falling chin-first on the corners of oak tables to prepare for those right hands.

How much do Klitschko challengers get paid again?

 

Not much considering what they take themselves, it's like 10% or less for the challenger. This is a joke.

OT:
Young Tua would have big chances against Klits, I don't think that Wlad would be able to keep Tua on his jab all night long and Vit would be pissed off at Tua since the young one was a tough, hard to hit mofo. In some moment Tua would blow their heads off.

 

In 03 Sanders got $125,000 to show up to get murdered, and as we all know he ended up murdering and getting a sweet second payday against Vitali (although he had to earn that paycheck at least he tried). So theres hope!!!!

You got this IB, I'll talk to my people and see we can't make some phone calls on your behalf, hey Corrie Sanders was literally the 11th guy Wlad's team called to get to fight on that fateful night in 03 (not kidding), so there is always hope :yep.

 

Two people picked Tua by decision, that is side-splitingly awesome!!!

 

Tua could start by shattering both of Wlad's kneecaps with that vicious left hook of his.

The Tua that fought Barrett for 4 rounds has a good chance against Klit. The Tua that fought Klit after that gets stopped. Presumably, his torn rotator cuff played a significant part in that fight, especially in the later rounds. He got treated in California, is getting rehab from a physio now, and should be on the mend for December. Anyone know if Klit will be making a serious offer to Tua?

 

Tua gets the hell beat out of him. Too short and past his best to do anything but struggle on the outside, and get nailed, over and over again, til he falls.
