Why not? I would throw a little money for a PPV on any of the above.....instaed we get Jones/Bhop. Tua management either has no connections or are just plain inept and/or no one wants to **** with Tua and get starched ruining their chances at a payday. WTF is going on, why cant this guy get a meaningul fight yet Ruiz is recycled a million times?????? well dammit? with all the hapless mofos being paraded at heavy why not one who can at least punch like a mule kick!
Yea is it that something that Tua is the first fighter to destroyed Ruiz in the first round back in 96 but yet Ruiz won a world title 2 times while Tua hasn't won a title belt.
I have to ask you and anyone else... Who the **** cares about Tua? He hasn't fought anyone of note in 7 years. Why would anyone with a name give him the time of day? There is no upside in fighting him. He doesn't make for a good payday. If you beat him, people just see that you beat an old man. Yes he can still punch which makes it even less likely he'll get a good fight even though all of the top HWs would destroy him.
I said this before last year in the summer that Tua even right now i think can tko or ko Arreola cause of styles. Arreola is a taller bigger fighter but he's so 1 dimensional in which he's easy to hit. If Arreola slug it out with Tua, i bet all my money Arreola will be ko badly by Tua.
who gives a **** about tua its a big risk very very low reward fight not a big pay day and whos he beat to deserve a big payday himself
Might we hear it again from you next summer also. And in my opinion Arreola would slug the back of Tua's head to the matt. Arreola one dimension still beats Tau s two dimension , and that is short and thick. Tua should have been a cruiser. Arreola ko Tua in 6
Ruiz won belts but he wasn't a champion. Tua lost to the champ, Lewis, and there's no shame in that. But Ruiz never beat the Champ because Lewis knew he was a Don King stooge and that the fight was a joke. Therefore, he gave up the belt. In the end, Ruiz was a beltholder. It the same reason why Haye isn't a champion. He's a beltholder. You're not a champ until you beat the best guy in the division...period.
:rofl Man i hope Arreola fights Tua and i would bet you $500.00 that Tua will ko Arreola. Nobody and i mean nobody can go toe2toe with any version of Tua and Arreola will find out the hard way if that fight happens in the fall.
We could see Adamek vs. Haye in the future that is if Adamek gets by Arreola. Adamek's people were talking to Haye's manager about a possible fight in the near future.
