    I doubt that Monte Barrett is even training ahead his fights these days, he was gassed out before being KO'd by Solis recently, after 1 RD...

      Tua should fight Sam peters after this one then Adamek would be a step in the right direction!!!

        Try to catch Barrett's head if you can.

          I don't dislike Tua,but the guy hasn't fought a legitimate top ten contender since his rematch with Hasim Rahman some seven years ago.


          He keeps claiming he wants another crack at a title and yet he makes no attempt at fighting other top ten contenders.


          He'll fight a few journeyman and then go into another long hiatus.

            I wonder if the change of venue is any indication of Tua's immediate future standing in the HW picture. I mean from it going from Brazil to Atlantic City is a pretty big jump. There's gonna be more eyes on him for sure. This could be like a showcase for him to put him in line for something.

              I hope Barrett retires after this fight.

              Tua will KO him early I think, he should fight someone like Arreola/Adamek/Chambers later this year if he looks good.

                I got a feeling Tua will never be a champ

                Barrett is the perfect chinny guy to face

                Shame really, I hope somehow Tua gets a shot
