        Good luck to him, and I sincerely hope he doesn't have to come back because at this point he's a shadow of a shadow of his former self.

        Farewell to the hardest puncher of all time.

          Tua hit so hard he made Ibeabuchi insane. Surely he's one of the best fighters to never be a world champion.

            I wish there were more quotes about Tua from former opponents to boost his standing. Most of them probably can't remember what it's like to be hit by him. Certianly Ruiz, Moorer, Izon and Wilson wouldn't. They were all knocked out cold.

                How long were they out for?

                I don't remember them being out cold TBH.

                Poor David Izon was ruined though.

                  I always liked Tua . he is the only hvy that reminds me of tyson . watching his fights , I was always on the edge of my seat knowing he could unleash a 1 punch ko at any second . I was VERY nervous during the Lewis fight !

                  Good luck to him !

                    Tua is one of the best fighters to have not won a World Championship, he's a legend and a humble guy he'll do great
