I missed those powerful shots he throws..especially those vicious punces against Ruiz..too sad for him..
When a fighter does 'nt step it up something is happening behind the scenes. Tua has been on the so-called comeback trail for 2-3 years. He must not look good in sparring with good comp.
Tua cannot be taken seriously any longer.He is now irrelevant in heavyweight picture.The same can also be said of Kirk Johnson.:-(
Just when he has a few good fights and you think he's going to do something he gets quiet and then a few more easy fights. I don't know if it's bad promoter or Tua just doesnt want it bad enough or both. Anyone know?
With a weak and hungry HW division like today I just can't understand why he doesn't step it up already, how many more bums do they plan to beat?
You guys call Sam Peter one dimensional yet believe in Tua as something he never was. Tua had his moment in the sun losing a very wide decision to Lennox Lewis. He was never anything more than a wild left hook KO artist. He never evolved. Ibeabuchi was the better heavyweight of the 90s, and today there are a ton of heavyweights better than Tua. Just the facts.
Tua must not be able to find the kind of form that he is comfortable with boxing at.. If the fighter knows deep inside that he is done, its a hard place to come back from.. Tua knows that he cant beat Wlad anytime soon, and for a man like David, he will not settle for fighting no Brocks or Chambers' If he can't compete with the elite , he wont fight .. No half measures.. Mentally he wont be satisfied..
