    It's been so long since I've actually seen Tua fight that he's almost a past tense fighter like Ibeabuchi, a guy who we remember was good but is just a memory.

    arreola is garbage. he is slow and relies way to much on his power

    wlad would toy with him. id give experienced guys like ruiz, rahman, even peter to take him out

    Wrong, I remember the report that Thompson got $500k to fight Wlad.

    Wow, Longrob!

    A million each for Tua vs. Briggs?

    Now THAT would be cause for celebration!

    Well, let's try to remain optimistic...

    But I do think now I would be pleasantly surprised if this happened.

    Apart from fighting Meehan, who also has a very high ranking, this is the best ranking fight and style match up for Tua out there.

    Thinking the same way ... completely sick of the whole saga regarding Tua.

    That's the problem. Tua isn't fighting anyone of significance and they try to sell those shitty matchups as PPV no less! It sounds to me like a fighter that knows he has nothing left to offer the sport so he's just milking the industry for every penny he can get from idiots who think he's still a threat.
