    what is everyones thoughts on him? he is currently been ranked tenth in the wbo i think it is, in the cruiserweight division, does anyone that has seen him think he can challenge succesfully for the title, all i have heard so far is he is a talent but wasted his time coming in overweight at heavyweight and so on......??????

    im a huge fan.

    great footwork and anglesfor a big man.
    his main fault in the past has been that he was very lazy, but as i understand it now he it training the house down and very fit.
    i think he could cause a few upsets among that divvy big names:deal

    Yeah he has been lazy many times in his career, which has been his downfall.
    Never quite lived up to his potential, but its not too late yet.

    He won the very credible WBO Oriental Cruiserweight Title, to get that number 10 ranking.
    Time to unify with the WBO Asia-Pacific Champ.:lol:

    I'd much rather see him at Lt Heavy and he'll make that weight imo if he really wants to. As stated by Huricn, excellent footwork. Watching him spar with Briggs and Rowsell a few years ago was brilliant.

    Yeah he has decent power man.
    I just think he should try & get matched with Daniel Ammann or Dom Vea.
    He would probably beat them both, but they would both have a couple inches in size & reach on Tauasa.
    His biggest downfall is his small size in height, thats why he has to somehow get down to Light Heavy to really have a chance to get somewhere.

    if Tauasa was in tip top shape for the fight u mention he would dispose of them both inside 6 rounds.

    but if he was a little off it would take him 8 rounds to finish them
