Tua vs. Cameron Pushed To October 3 - David Irate
By Mark Vester
David Tua is beyond angry over the news that his heavyweight clash with New Zealand rival, Shane Cameron, has been pushed all the way to October 3. The fight had been previously scheduled for June 6 but the fight was postponed after Cameron suffered a bad hand injury during his tuneup win over Robert Davis in March. Tua is also angry over the venue change. The fight is now moving from outdoors at Waikato Stadium in central Hamilton to indoors at Mystery Creek Events Centre on the city's outskirts. By the time the fight happens, Tua will be out of the ring for over two years.
Tua told NZPA that he's upset with all the changes and he plans to punish Cameron in the fight.
"I'm disappointed, I'm pissed off man," Tua said. "I'm angry. Here we go again. I'm just ready to fight, but I suppose this is part of it and you just have to roll with the punches. Now that the fight is announced, Mystery Creek, wow."
"I appreciate Mr Cameron for blessing me and allowing me the opportunity to do what I love doing -- beat him up, punish him and hurt him. Things happen and it's easy to get frustrated, but I believe the most important thing is to continue to see the positive side."
