    Mate he is in shape.

    Some are saying that he may come into the fight at 230 or 235. Thats how serious he is taking this fight. He is already at 248 and there is still what 6 weeks of training to go.

    he is not joking around.

    Im going for Tua.

    If he whips Cameron who cares.

    Tua is long past irrelevant.

    He's training with Bloodworth - Golota's old trainer. In terms of wasted potential, Tua and Golota have much in common, but I feel that these are fighters who are destined for failure, mostly due to mental weaknesses and bad timing.

    Tua vs Ruiz next. Then Tua vs one of the Klits. All money fights.

    I don't know about Tua - Ruiz again. Ruiz has learnt to hug fighters to death.

    Might work on Tua even.

    If he is trim and aggressive, I like Tua against any Heavy today.

    Kinski - wait until October before making a statement.

    If there is power and motivation still, then you cannot write him off.

    Still aged 36.

    He was worth about 20 million in his heyday, but his manager screwed him out of a lot, and the long ass court battle they got into screwed him out of even more. He claims that he still has money, but the accounts are frozen or seized or something until this whole court thing is over, but no where near as much as he had. That is one of the reasons he is making this comeback against Cameron. Both fighters will be getting roughly $500,000 and Tua said that he is in some pretty heavy debt and this will help him pay it off.

    I don't think he has the will power to do what it takes to deserve a title shot, and none of the champions would be willing to get in the ring with that big left hook unless there forced to. So it could happen but it's all up to tua, and how bad he wants it!

    If he steps into the ring I'll let him in the top 15.

    Tua has some name recognition. (He was even the punchline to a joke on Family Guy) I think he can easily get a title shot.
    Winning a title is a different story, but getting the shot should be easy.

    Sadly I think he is avoided by some HW's due to his power and lack of
    a truly great promoter in the past. $$$$ talk - so let's see.

    But October is the first test
