Comments Thread For: David Tua Would Love To Fight Chris Arreola, Title Fight

[pistol whip]

Do you watch boxing?

Um even if a person does watch boxing you would be hardpressed to find David Tua on any TV over the last 8 years.

[NECK SNAPPER]

Yea i watch boxing plus fought 50+ bouts and trained
about 15 amaturs to titles.i guess i know a little bit

[joe strong]

I'd love to see this fight.if arreola thinks vitali hits hard...arreola is going to come right after him...if tua still has anything left chris may actually end up on his back.cameron,ahunsnya,& Barrett may be lighter opposition then people like but those fights are excellent low risk,stay busy tune up fights.he is 37 so we will see...

[NECK SNAPPER]

Tua is a powerfull fighter & probly beats barrett.
The short fighter ala frazer tyson tua do good when there
in there 20's early 30's after that you better hand pick the opponents or they can look dreadful.

[Jim Jeffries]

tua will do good against other brawlers and sluggers.

he can still be entertaining that way.


haye-tua probably would be boring unless tua catches him with a lucky punch.

Yeah the Haye fight would probably more like Haye/Valuev than the slugfests the other matchups should be. Arreola and Peter would be much more entertaining. I'd just like to see Haye fight a HW that can punch for once.

I personally think even an old David Tua kills any version of Arreola. I take nothing away from Arreola. David Tua is a force to be respected, and I just don't think Arreola has the kind've skillset required to elude Tua's power. Arreola asleep with 4.

Also watch how the Nightmare fights, he is lazy with his guard and is always open most of the time always dropping or lowering his right hand when he punches with either hand, I see Tua left hooking this defense gap.

[Boxing Scene]

Arreola's defense is his face. Tua by KO.

[Corelone]

Arreola doesn't inspire any confidence. I can't bet for a guy who won't train right, or eat less. I don't think Tua is a sure winner, but neither is Arreola. One thing for sure, this better not be pay per view.

[LeadUppercut]

Until Tua knocks off somebody legit, I view his latest comeback as more of a curiousity...it's Arreola who's really risking becoming an opponent type-guy. Too bad. HBO really wanted a Latino HWT Champ, and gave Arreola every opportunity they could. They seemed to like him, (his post fight interviews -probably not so much...), and if he doesn't do something serious, those big paydays are gonna dry up real quick.

I liked Arreola when he first came on the scene because of his punching style, but I just cant be bothered with him now.

At least Tua trains, and usually get's himself in reasonable shape, whereas according to Arreola's trainer..... if Chris cant be bothered training he sits in his room playing playstation.

**** that fatass..... if he can't turn up for training, or at least get himself in reasonable shape..... then he deserves to be just an opponent.

God stuff. Unless Chris somehow becomes younger and learns how to box properly it's Tua by KO.
