Round 3 - Tua lands a nice overhand punch early in round 3 then he goes to town on the body. King is standing firm at the moment, even throwing a couple himself. King is using his elbow to push Tua away, the ref has a word about that. King standing in a defensive position, very aware of the Tuaman's power. Tua working off his jab here, he'll jab away and then look to land a bigger left. Round 3 over, King still standing...
Round 4 - Tua has won every round so far, doing enough but hasn't landed any massive blows yet. Tua bobbing and weaving with his head then working off the jab again. Just getting through King's defence with ease with a straight left. Much the same for the rest of the round. Tua well on top here, he has complete control of the fight.
Round 5 - Bang! Tua comes out and lands a couple of big ones on King, he's a tough bugger though and just shakes his head as if to say "that didn't hurt me!". Tua continues his dominance in the round, as he starts to wind up at the end of the round. Yeah i cant answer questions sorry this is the best i can do

Round 6 - King needs to start doing something is he wants a piece of this fight. You can tell he's boxing within himself, watchful of the Tuaman's power. David goes hard with the straight left, bang, bang but King hasn't wobbled as of yet. David once again comes forward near the end of the round, BANG! it's all on at the end of 6, Tua smashes King and King is on the ropes. King taunts Tua smiling at him and asking for more. Tua lets loose and the punches fly. Lot of BANGS in this commentary i wonder if jim lampley is typing
He needs to get rid of this guy in a couple of rounds, if it goes 12 then david needs to call it a career imo.
Round 7 - Tua comes skipping out of his corner and lands a couple early. Bang a crushing uppercut to King's chin. He works inside again and works away at the body. The middle of the round is a touch quiet maybe a bit of fatigue setting in. Tua works King into the corner at the back end of the seventh and works the body again. King gets the elbow out once more.
Entertaining fights. Even the Barrett fight which he has been ridiculed for was really entertaining. To many fights are as boring as crap. There is always a bit of excitement with Tua because there is always a chance of a brutal KO.
Round 8 - The tempo has slowed at the start of this round. David's hand speed is far superior to King's in this one. Wack! Tua hits him with a left and that brings a smile to his face. He's enjoying himself here! Tua in cruise control here with a couple of rounds to go.
