David Tua didn't look good

[Earl-Hickey]

Just finished watching his fight against Ahunanya, and I wasn't impressed. Ahunanya did pretty well for a guy who was odds on to get ko'd in the first. I had tua winning but Friday showed some movement, decent defence, a half decent jab and made Tua look basic. Tua was unable to get through the defence, looked frustrated at times and the fight went the distance. Tua won, but there were a lot of close rounds, and tuas offence was mostly ineffective and he only landed a couple good shots all night, it was a slow paced fight, and Friday often left openings which Tua couldn't see, instead he occasionally bum rushed the guy and only landed on the guys gloves/arms or thin air.

All this would be ok if Friday was a top 10 guy, but he wasn't, he was an old inactive gatekeeper, who was picked to make tua look good

tua took a step backwards tonight IMO

i kept saying on here that TUA is overrated. All he has is a powerfull punch.



Other than that he aint nothing. He has never held an official belt .....

Same could be said for Foreman.

Ger real man. George was one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. Tua couldnt lace his boots man.

Yeah, when Tua had him against the ropes he didn't throw much and let him off the hook, Tua wasn't very active.

Prime Tua is one of the best heavyweights never to win a major belt, he was a beast back in the day.

Yea i know no doubt about that. But I dont see how so much ppl on this forum think he should get a shot at the Klitschko brothers, its ridiculous. Prime Tua wouldnt be able to **** with the big brothers and people give him credit now?


All the big fights he's been he lost concincingly ....

[Lakas]

Tua lost to:

Chris Byrd
Lennox Lewis
Ike Ibeabuchi

And the ONLY time he fought for a WBC or any other official belt was against Lennox and lost VERY convincingly.

He held the International WBC belt but that aint nothing compared to the real mc'oy WBC baby
