    i think one more tomato can after.

    he signed 3 fights with maori tv. (who can't really afford to get tua top class opposition)

    after ahunanya that'll be 2. 1 more tomato can and maybe he can get an hbo fight.

    winner of adamek-arreola? peter? who knows?

      I don't see this fight going passed 4 rounds. Tua is too much for Friday. If someone wants to bet that this fight doesn't go past 4 rounds, PM me.

        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.
        That Moorer ko was vicious,but i see what your saying his problems were mostly promotional not lazyness.

          he was lazy as in he got fat.

          but even when he was fat he was fighting a lot and some good opposition.

                  tua tried to work something out with maori tv.

                  from what i read , hbo offered tua an arreola fight on hbo.

                  tua tried to make a deal with maori tv but maori tv wanted no part in it.

                  so now tua is just gonna try to finish it up.

                  he signed 3 fight contract with them. 1 more and he's good to go.
