    Would be a nice fight. Whoever is the guy moving forward would be the one to win - neither guy can fight backing up. I suspect Arreola would outwork Tua to a decision, unless Arreola's beard is worse than I think it is.

    If Walker downed him, why wouldn't Tua?

    Because Walker has about 10 inches of reach on Tua. And he didn't really down Arreola. Arreola took a knee.

    On the converse, if Vitali Klitschko couldn't hurt Arreola, why would Tua?

    I honestly don't think Tua's looked that great lately. He looked good against Cameron because he jumped all over him, but Tua's stamina and aggression have been down overall. If Tua can back up Arreola and attack that flabby body and not run out of gas, he'll win by knockout. But that's a lot of ifs. If he looks like he did against Ahunanya, where he only let go when Friday was covering up and doing a Kevin Safety Pin Johnson impression, then Arreola will just outwork him and Tua will be frustrated.

    Eh, I don't really see Vitali as being a very powerful one-punch type of guy, not on par with Tua or even Walker.

    Arreola's come-forward instincts could hurt him here. Like you say, if Tua gnashes his teeth and goes for the throat, it's all his.

    Arreola couldn't KO Adamek, how can he possibly Ko Tua. If Tua is fit I believe he can KTFO Arreola.

    True that. I just don't know if Tua has it in him anymore. Tua of a decade ago murders Arreola.

    Tua will be fighting in Sept/Oct against to finish off his MTV contract. Lack of Tua for stamina? Nope, he's in the best shape of his life since the Duva days. The questions are? Does he still have the power? Has he learned how to get inside?

    Do you think they are going to make good money in the upcoming fight? Who is going to pay for that? Tua's Kiwi supporters and Barret's mother?

    Maybe I'm underestimating the commercial potential of the fight, but I hope they make less then they expect and Tua is forced to go for the big fights.

    I wonder if he spars with Ademak as I think they are in the same training camp, could be intresting :)

    Tua will get $50,000 from MTV, gate receipts, and anything he makes from PPV in the US. Maybe $100,000-$200,000?

    It is a stepping stone - and hopefully a hard-punched one!!
