    David Tua has come in eight pounds heavier for his second Monte Barrett fight than he did for the first. What do you guys think? Does this change any of your predictions? I'm still picking Tua, but am admittedly much less confident now.

    The high weight can only work against him

    i heard this guy was broke and homeless. he's basically fighting to make a living now which is a damn shame at age 38. he made 12 million against Lewis, what the hell happened to all that money

    i still got Tua to win UD, but his conditioning might catch up to him

    Tua doesn't have the right kind of hunger anymore, hasn't for many years actually.

    Toney may be shot but he's dropped a lot of weight recently and is around 215 I believe.

    If Barrett somehow wins he will get a very high ranking in the WBO. Tua is nr two or something like hat.

    Yeah, based on what? He hasn't even faced a top 15 guy in 10 years.

    I had a Kiwi practicly dancing around my lounge room ,before the Tua -Lewis fight. 'thus wull be the frist heavyweight chimpion tu come out of NewZuland iver'

    As the fight wore on he became more and more down in the mouth , and you daren't tease him or he would have shot you!:roll:

    Looks like he doesn't even care about getting a title shot anymore.

    Battle of the Shot Fat ****s...classic one, Montero. A great marketing title, right up there with the Rumble in the Jungle.

    Probably Barrett will finish the job this time. When BArrett put him on his ass in the first fight, it was more from exhaustion than from hurtful punches.
