[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to New Zealand's Sunday News, David Tua was in serious negotiations to fight Roy Jones Jr. in 2003, when Jones won the WBA heavyweight title from John Ruiz.

Please. At the height of his popularity Roy could have set up a fight with ANY fighter on ANY NIGHT OF THE WEEK if he chose to do so. I give him credit for challenging and beating Ruiz, but his HW career began and ended with Ruiz for a reason. He talked a lot about fighting the best HWs, but it was all talk; nothing more.

[Madvillain]

I didn't know this fight was ever talked about. Did Jones have a death wish?

[TheGreatA]

Could have been brutal for Jones if he fought Tua like he fought Tarver and Johnson. If he was able to sustain the form that he had when he fought Ruiz, he would have stood a chance of winning.

[street bully]

Jones would have died.

[S A M U R A I]

I would not have put Jones anywhere near Davie Tua, but that's some interesting ****.
