*** The Mafaufau Sita aka David "Tuaman" Tua champ-by-40 Express!!! ***

Tua TKO-8 Cameron.

Scorecards at time of stoppage- 76-71 | 76-72 | 74-73 all for Cameron, in typical tua fashion.

Get em Tua :bbb

 

KO within 5 more like

I am tempted to say within 3

 

He has to or it will be too late. Time is running out on him. If he beats Cameron (which I expect to happen) he should fight again very quickly. Even if he's not facing big names he should stay active and try to get some TV bouts here in the States. You never know when a big name heavy will need an opponent at the last minute and Tua could step in, ala Rahman vs. Wlad not long ago.

 

I can't lie--- Tua has disappointed me a lot over the years, but I'm on board the train. Not gonna set myself up for disappointment and expect him to reach the top, but hopefully he'll knock out at least a few of the slouches that constitute the HW top 10.

I am tempted to say that I am disapponted that I'd never see his 'full potential', but that'd be purely speculative.

 

Choo Choo. Get on board quick. The train is leaving the station. According to Team Tua, Tua is in the best shape of his life. He's cut, hungry, and aggressive. Here's a link to pictures, tickets, news, etc.

i am on board .tua in shape and fired up against an ageing vitali though a long way off could be interesting .hope this train has a buffet car

 

Holy ****!!! He's gonna kill Cameron!!!
I'm changhing my prediction to Tua by decapitation round 1 :happy

 

stoppage inside of 4 rounds to Tua. Points at time of stoppage?? all cards read......

round 1) 10-8 Tua
round 2) 10-8 Tua
round 3_ 10-7 Tua


My head tells me to bet on the stoppage inside of 4 to be safe, but my gut instinct makes me think a 1st round stoppage is more than likely.

I say that not as a mark of disrespect to Shane, its just that i cant see Tua pacing himself over the distance just waiting for the right moment. He knows he has superior fire power.He knows he can take a punch. He knows Shane will stand and trade. He is pissed at Shane, and that is an emotion that has driven him to achieve the amazing training that has reshaped and rekindled the fire in his belly.:fire:fire:fire

 

Here is the only thing that concerns me

Does Tua have the right promoters Stateside to push him into ACTIVE regular
fights to get him to a belt fight ASAP after his comeback?

 

The reason I say that is his new promoters are New Zealand-based and seem to
be doing a fantastic job with Tua there.

But what about the States? What will happen then?

 

I was wondering the same thing.

 

Again, I was wondering this as well. My grandma has Samoan neighbors (nicest family you could ever meet, known them my whole life) and they are HUGE Tua fans and if there is any way to see this in the states, they will find it and surely watch. I am going to ask them to tape it for me if they can find a way to see it.
