so much impatience and negative criticism....you'll see the Tuaman up there soon enough and then you're going to see a lot of sidestepping from the so called HW "contenders"...if they're avoiding him now, its gonna get worse !!
If Tua knocks out someone like Arreola by this time next year he'll have a chance to become the most lucrative challenger Wlad's seen in years (in terms of TV interest and box office). Everybody loves a big puncher...especially one whose name has been kicking around long enough to seep into memory (hell, even Family Guy referenced Tua long after he was a major contender!)
such a fight will do nothing for both , as it is clear barrett is far from deserving a legitimate title shot , and tua is aging and needs to prove he is still a top hw by beating a dangerous opponent. i hope this fight will not materialize.
Go the TUA-MAN! can't wait to see him destroy Monte (its good to see Monte is not ducking). Then one more journey man. Once free of MTV then hopefully TUA gets to KO some of the bigger names!! I hope this fight doesn't fall thru.
Maori TV is MTV. No one will be ducking Tua after he sees out his last contractual fight with MTV in Aug/Sept. I predict there will be an eliminator in Dec/Jan, with the winner fighting Klit the first of 2011. But with a scarcity of good fights for Klit (who else is there?), he may go to the front of the line and fight for a title in 2010, especially if Haye/Klit doesn't happen, and Povetkin wimps out. Again.
I think the trouble with getting fights for Tua isn't that he doesn't want the fights simply finding someone who actually wants to fight him for FA money is the problem hence going for these journeymen who need some money fast and don't mind getting the **** knocked out of them:bbb
