It's being reported in Barrett's camp that it'll be Shane Cameron, not Tua, who will fight Barrett in May. Cameron went down to cruiser to fight Danny Green, which never happened. Now he's back up to heavyweight. At one time, Cameron was ranked #6 by the WBO.
Frans Botha gets the winner, for a shot at the most prestigous title in all of sports, the "World Boxing Federation Heavyweight Champion of the World", Michael Grant
WTF? Why can't boxing get anything right? If these four are going to be involved in the sport at all, it should be Barret vs. Tua III & Cameron vs. Green as originally planned (maybe on the same card?). **** any of the four of them doing anything else. Seriously. Have that doubleheader, then all just go away. :yep Or just skip ahead to all going away.
Is there a link to a source? Cameron offered him a fight last year and he turned it down then. He's not the best managed fighter, not sure why he doesn't fight a decent cruiser. Maybe offer to get spanked by ola afolabi for his commonwealth title on a klitschko undercard. Much more credible fight than dragging Barrett back to NZ in a fight he will probably lose.
