What a let down that was. Thought Tua would put on a better performance then that.

I'd rather see Tua lose then get a pathetic draw.

[train hard]

Barrett said it himself about the sport not being 'pure'.

[TonganTerror]

felt sorry for the guy he deserved to win and it was an interesting look on his face when they announced the draw he was kinda like ah yep that'd be right :doh:

[Eddy]

Tua by TKO, Yeah right!

This was really a test case for the TUA camp. Since his so called come back Tua had not met an opponent of the highest calibre who comes to fight and not to just be defensive like the journeyman Ahunanya. Today was the day, he got a real champ. I like the TuaMan I hope he seriously revises his tactics, because today he lost. That was not a draw, he LOST! I am not ruling him out completely yet. He just needs to improve. He could have won in the 4th round, but instead wasted a lot of time throwing body shots.

[Monarchking]

that was not a draw, he LOST!

agree

[Optimass]

He's trying to add a lot more technical style to his fight game plan - but IMo he needs to get back to focusing on his hook punch as this is what makes him dangerous. as with any sport - develop your opportunities to a point that they are not a risk and emphasise your strengths.

He's always performed better when he has gone in early with the block rocking punches. unlike the majority of fighters he only needs one good punch to bring in the win. this can happen in the 2nd round or the 9th - lennox knew it and fought to negate it. -

Do what works best I say ....

[ohjoshua]

what a looser... (tua) id smash him. :wink:

if he was handcuffed to the floor and i had a sledge hammer
