David Tua Next Opponent Named...

I'm guessing a lackluster TKO in the late rounds with Tua barely ahead, proceeded by a 7-month layoff before he fights another Quezada-level fighter.

Prove me wrong, David. Prove me wrong.

 

wow, he must really need confidence builders, still.

the only thing for him is to keep fighting, go back to fighting 2-3 months apart. a long string of knockouts does good things for peoples careers, look at shannon briggs.

 

Tua seems like he's just fighting no-risk bouts for a little money these days. It doesn't seem like he's serious about getting it together and working hard at making one last run, which is a shame because Tua if he just got into decent shape and really dedicated himself could still win a title and make some good money in the current division

If Tua is going to fight this level of opposition he should fight 4 times in 6 months then step up his competition

 

My thoughts exactly. He could have fought a guy like this a month after his bout with Hawkins.

 

Easy to say, but I doubt many guys want to fight Tua, especially any contenders....too risky.

 

I think he's just making a living without any major aspirations...

 

Who???atsch


Wow, I was hoping Tua would be on the faster track back to the mix but it appears he GOT COMPLETELY OFF THE TRACK.

 

I had to look twice there, i thought it said "David Tua Next Opponent Hamed"

 

The only good things that could come out of this is if Tua weighs in less than the 241 from his last fight, and a quick KO.

Apart from that this is useless, yet again. If he's going to fight this poor level of opposition then it should at least be every month, not every 3-4.

Still, reservations aside...glad he's continuing, I just hope this leads somewhere worthwhile.

 

Until Tua is fighting once a month he is done. I don't see TUA's name on that page either.

I hope you're right, I have tickets to that event.

 

Probably a bit of truth in that. The guy has very little risk/reward going for him.

 

Didn't he turn down a bout with Brewster?

If that's the case, he'd be better off fighing bums once a month than fighting guys like Hawkins and Quezada every six months.

 

I don't think he'll ever get himself back in fight shape again, at least not top shape to really contend, he'll take another half yr off after this fight and then re-appear in the canned goods section in a grocery store. he reminds me of Kirk Johnson.

 

Is David actually planning on going somewhere again in the division? Doubt it, He's being an invalid
