    Tua should win easily. Ahunanya was getting handled by Shane Cameron (the guy tua blasted in his last fight) for 11 rounds, until the guy gassed and friday took him out. Plus he hasnt fought in almost 2 years, ill say Tua, round 5 at the absoloute latest.

      I went for rd 9 because at this point in Tuas career he might take a breather in the mid rounds but we will see.

        Ahunanya hasn't fought since 2008.

        Tua takes him out in 3-4 if not 1.

          Ahunanya may be inactive but the last two guys he fought were a combined 45-0-1 and he beat them. Yes I think Tua should level him but Ahunanya does have a ok chin and Tua's hasn't been the most active fighter the last few years himself(1 fight in 2 1/2 years).

            tua just fought a few months ago.

            he finished cameron in practically 1 round. cameron is one of those guys that friday has fought in his last 2 fights.

            cameron actually was kicking friday's ass until the end when he gassed.

              What happened to Tua why has he been so inactive after the Ibeabuchi fight i thought we would see big things out of him.nope all we got were years and years of inactivity.

                Tua by early knockout, Tua looked really good against Cameron. Ahunanya is a career journeyman/sparring partner, I'd be surprised if Ahunanya makes it out of the 4th round.

                  he was active after the ibeabuchi fight.

                  what screwed him up was when he became the #1 contender.

                  lewis had big paydays ahead with tyson and holyfield. lewis gave him step aside money.

                  since he was getting step aside money and his management didn't want to risk his #1 ranking , he fought a bunch of tomato cans waiting 'til he got a shot at lewis. by then he had gotten lazy and blown up to 250 lbs.

                  after the lewis loss he had a couple good wins still over oquendo (who was hot stuff at the time after destroying izon , etinne and sullivan) and a nice impressive win over a past it but still a good name michael moorer.

                  then he went into all the lawsuits with his management , promoter , etc.

                  that cost him 2 long layoffs.

                  tua has bad luck. he could have gotten an arreola fight recently but his contract with maori tv (he needed the money and signed with them) prevented him from taking the fight.
