Didnt see the fight but did Tua mention he was hitting BK again?? Pretty obvious he is sponsored by them..I just hope they gave him cash rather then a life time supply of burgers etc...Him and all his relo's will clean the poor ****ers out if thats the case.. I seen what the samoan community can do to a place when given all you can eat options..Buffet resturants have been hit like a ricky hatton groin shot over the years out my way.. I was around 10 and at KFC all you can eat with my family and in walked 4 Samoan blokes.They proceeded to eat the most chicken i have ever seen in my life.I swear on my mums life that once they left the 4 of them walked across the road to Mcdonalds and got some more food,walked back to their FOB BUS(Busted old van) and drove off in the sunset.. KFC at plumpton was never the same again..
I suspect he was trying to preserve himself, or just doesn't have the killer instinct anymore. I think after a few of Tuas body shots connected, there was no way Friday was going to let his guard down for long. Not sure if they wanted to, but they I think they both realised they had little choice 1/2 way. It sure looked like it. The man has stamina for someone who's not all that lean. I thought so too, he is also bloody quick for a pretty solid stocky guy. I wasn't let down, I thought it was a good fight. Not packed full of excitement, though both played it very smart. I reckon the killer instinct could come after a couple more fights from Tua. He's been out of the game for some time, needed a decent test like this.
i don't think it was lack of killer instinct, it just seemed as though he was under strict instruction to preserve himself and if the ko happens it happens. maybe the sponsers paid a bonus if tua let the guy survive 12 rounds, lol.
