    Now that Tua is coming back........

    How far do you see him going?
    Champ/Contender/Pretender

    Personally, I believe Tua has the tools to become a champion. If he comes into a fight in shape and focused, then those so-called champs better watch out.

    The other belt holders won't be a problem for Tua except Klitschko, mainly due to his height and reach advantage, but NOT because of his skill.

    Tua can handle Ruiz the same way he did the 1st time, although I will say, Ruiz has mastered that Ugly ass style of his pretty effectively. That style will let him survive a couple of rounds before getting KTFO...again.

    Brewster's claim to fame is being able to absorb punishment, which is exactly what he'll be receiving if he fights Tua. I don't see Tua pulling a Vlad by wasting his energy and eventually passing out. Tua KO's Brewster - the punching bag -within 3 rounds.

    A re-match against Byrd will be a true test of his will and determination. I believe the 1st time they fought, Tua wasn't mentally prepared. Like I said earlier, if he comes into a fight in shape and focused then he's very difficult to beat. I see Byrd going down ala Ibeabuchi style...around the 8th round.

    I think Tua can reach his potential by staying in shape, fighting on a regular basis, and being mentally strong/tough. I can see Tua having 3 belts in a couple of years with the other champ being Vitali. Although I don't see him being the Unified champion, there's a good possibility that he could do it, but that's only if he fights Vitali with the proper plan and executes that plan flawlessly.

    What do you guys/girls think?

          Tua in shape can beat brewster and ruiz, perhaps Byrd but no way VK.

            I don't think Tua has what is takes to win the title, even with a watered-down division.
            I don't think he could ever beat a Klitchko.

              Tua would lose against any champ today. His skills are most likely long gone and any fighter with credible speed could easily outhustle him...I may give him a chance against Ruiz but thats even doubtful, as what Ruiz normally does (fight close and hug) would not be his gameplan and would probably try to keep distance from Tua....

              Tuaman is done for, unfortunately he never really *****d through with the talent he had...He wasnt disciplined enough.

                Tua has about a big a chance as Prince Naseem to become world champion again.

                Only "champ" he might be able to take would be Brewster.

                  I dont know man, Brewster has a durable chin and isnt the slowest fighter out their today. He might be able to withstand and back off of Tua to counter him....Provided Tua doesnt tire.
