David Tua and Monte Barrett return on Dec 4

[The Hammer]

David Tua (51-3-2, 43 KOs) and Monte Barrett (34-9-1, 20 KOs) will co-feature in separate bouts on December 4th in Aruba.

That's an unusual location, I'd imagine it'd make more money in New Zealand or the US. Then again I know nothing about Aruba so...

I thought Monte retired "win, lose or draw"?

That would have been a great way to end his career, imo.

Providing both Tua and Barrett win in December, they will have a rematch in the spring of 2011.

Yes. But he probably realizes he can make a little more money for retirement after the draw with Tua, so he's changed his mind.

Tua was clearly hurt by the punch, look at 6:14 of this video:

Monte will enter the WBO rankings if he wins.
