    Tua vs Peter OR Arreolla would be a fight i would pay to watch. Just imagine the contact in either of those fights.

    Deserved or not, Tua is #2. And Friday has never been stopped by a legit punch. Whitaker thumbed his eye, and the ref stopped it. After Friday knocked down Ibrag twice, he was headbutted, and the fight was stopped on cuts. No way Friday, or anyone, stops Friday legitimately.

    W.Klit will be a huge favourite in this fight, if it happens. Tua will have to get Klit to engage. Not easy. Let's hope he's learned his lessons from LL, and can get inside. At some point, Klit will taste Tua's power. Then he'll hold and clinch.

    Diehard - I see 2 "Tomato-ish" fights and then Rahman coming up for Tua -
    then a belt fight.

    Is that the most likely?

    Rumor is Rahman Tua will be in the summer. I doubt Tua gets 2 tune ups in before the July timeframe. Maybe 1.

    Haye would box circles around that garbage. Tua back in the day would blast him out. Not the present one.

    After Adamek beats Arreola, I'd love to see Tua get a crack at Arreola.

    Tua at no.2.

    It's high time fans, David Tua in a title belt fight will likely happen by 2011 and also he will be rank no.1

    No way in **** should he be anywhere near #2 in anyone's HW rankings. Shane Cameron and Friday Abuhyan(or however you spell it) is not worth a number 2 ranking. If that was the case then I say give David Rodriguez the belt, he is the king of beating worthless opponents in the division.

    Kirk Johnson had twice as many title shots in his career as David Tua. Who the **** did Johnson ever beat?

    Oleg Maskaev has had twice as many title shots as David Tua. What has he done in his career that Tua hasn't?

    Sergei Liakhovich has twice as many title shots as Tua.

    Shannon Briggs has three times as many title shots as Tua.

    Jameel McCline has FOUR times as many title shots as Tua, and lost them all. That's more losses in title fights than Tua has in his entire career.

    NONE of these guys have half the number of quality wins that Tua has.

    Tua doesn't deserve a shot at Wlad based off beating Cameron and Friday.

    But he DOES deserve a second and last shot for everything he has done in his career.

    :hat
