    October: Tua VS Couser

    If he looks anything less than absolutely spectacular, 5x better at a minimum than he has recently, any serious talk of a title fight, especially against Wlad, should be considered a felony.

    True.

    I will say that an in-shape Tua who is focused is dangerous. He will eat a ton of shots to land a big one. And Wlad can't KO him. Wlad should beat him...but an in shape Tua is a hell of a what if punch away from a title.

    Still too heavy, but...11 pounds lighter then when he fought Sykes.

    Tua is doing well with his weight.

    It's a shame that he'll get cut/injured and have to take six months off. Tua at this rate won't fight for the title again until he's 40.

    While it would be a shame if he got hurt, it is anything but a shame that he won't get a title shot, hes had plenty and has shown nothing recently if ever to truely earn one. He's a big puncher, likeable, and exciting, but this is still supposed to be a sport that determines who is the best.... at least in theory, long lost theory, long lost abstract theory...somewhere.

    Tua could Ko those bums even if he weighs 260.

    At his age, i think it is not healthy for Tua to weigh lower than 240. He has just naturally thick build.

    238.
    His best shape has always been around the 235-240 mark. So down 11, but still a ways to go.

    :patsch He koed the guy who beat HOLY twice in 15 seconds ! he has ca 30 second KO of MOORER who also beat HOLY ! He has a ko over one of the current belt holders and koed the guy who he won it from ! He has never been koed and is a massive puncher ! but this all together and you get a guy who deserves it more then HOLY ! More then BRIGGS ! Hell based on past accomplishments and a current win streak he deserves it as much as anyone ! :deal

    Sadly, that's a major improvement over his last fight. He's useless.
