      Exactly, and you know they are just gonna ko some bums for a while, then step up and lose again.

      it's pointless, give us an entertaining slugfest, it's the best these can offer

        Nips is fat, overhyped, technically inept and barely one step above a clubfighter, but he still beats this version of Tua who's shot, shot, shot. More shot than Kennedy and Lincoln combined. And he seems to have lost all his aggression and killer instinct as well, or at least the Barrett fight made it look like it was so. Listen, I used to be a big Tua fan, but not any more. He clearly hasn't got it anymore, and against a guy like Arreola who'll be raining punches down on his Samoan dome from round one, I can't see Tua doing anything more than covering up and doing his best impression of a punching bag. This won't look anything like the Ibeabuchi fight, that's for sure and I wouldn't even be surprised by a knockout at this stage, as much as it pains me to admit it.

            I don't think tua has much left either,, but he can still punch and Areolla is there to be hit so he could get lucky.

            I just think at this stag, this is probably the biggest fight these guys could get, i'm sure HBO would hype it up and they both at least in theory have a chance of winning.

                    No it wouldn't. It'd resemble a fat man beating on a smaller fat man until the smaller fat man's corner decide to pull the plug sometime around the ninth or tenth. Tua's done man, he doesn't have it anymore.
