    That is exactly right.

    Both Kushner and Tua have to prove themselves this time.

    Life is ticking away.

    I think Tua would be an ideal opponent for David Haye.

    Can't agree with that Unitas

    The opposite is true

    I know Tua's practically shot but I'd have to go with him in this fight personally, much more experience and probably a better chin. Arreola isn't exactly going to outbox him is he so it's a battle of who's chin gives in first.

    Arreola would get right in Tua's face and try to brawl with him, which really is Tua's best chance of winning a fight...and if he got knocked out by Arreola, at least he would really know it's time to finally call it a day.

    No, this seemed like an ideal opponent to take on and if Tua misses out, that would be pretty dreadful.

    Damon - if he misses this one he really is gone.

    Pray that both Kushner and Tua actually have their act together well
    enough to land this fight.

    NEWS TIDBIT from NEW ZEALAND:

    Heavyweight boxer Tua's next fight
    18/07/2008 14:52:18

    Promoter Cedric Kushner will soon be able to confirm heavyweight boxer David Tua's next fight against unbeaten American Chris Arreola.

    Kushner says he has been negotiating with Arreola's promoter Dan Goosen over the past couple of weeks and should be able to nail the deal when Goosen returns to the States this weekend.

    Kushner says he will speak with Goosen tomorrow so in the next few days they should have something specific.

    He says they are aiming for the fight to be on October 18.
