who wins and why?
Tua - Arreola? Oh man that's a good fight. Maybe not now but there will be some serious power in the ring for that one, that's a good fight. Tua looked shot last time I saw him though unfortunately, hopefully he can surprise me and throw some punches.
this is simply amazing!
they should hold the fight either at pechanga or cabazon perhaps due to the fact that arreola is from riverside that would be nasty.
i wonder how solid arreola's chin is?
we all know tua can hang with the toe to toe action.
i predict late round tko for the Tua Man
i just found out daivd tua is related to Dwayne "THE ROCK" Johnson...lol
this family is crazy
lets go daivd..........but even if he does win
How will he do fighting Sam Peter for the belt?
I'm not ashamed to admit I'd go nuts if Tua managed to grab a belt.
I doubt it, but I'd still go nuts.
A seasoned Disciplined moving Boxer/puncher with a sturdy chin could exploit both of these Guys Imo.They almost cancel each other out in this one.Arreola is far to willing to stand in and let them go with anyone from what Ive seen & I wonder about his Conditioning down the stretch.Youth and being a touch faster are to his advantage.Tua's Career Nemesis Imo has been his motivation and reliance on one punch to get it done,but here I think his punches are cleaner and finer tuned.Clichés abound here but Honestly This could be a very heated in close exchange fest.....I think the first to back up losses.:fight:
I'll rep bet anyone Tua knocks Arreola out in 5 or less rounds. He might be old and shot but I bet he gets around Arreola.
im confussed i thought that gomes And Virchis for fighting for the title shot. does this mean that the winner will wait for klit and gomes virchis winner of did i read something wrong :-\
I know Tua well maybe past his prime, but he still definitely edges Arreola in chin and power. Tua was able to take shots from Lennox Lewis and Ike Ibeabuchi, I'm pretty sure Arreola does not hit as hard as those guys.
Tua kayo in 8!!!
Go TUAMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
;Dthis is an interesting matchup , as a venue may i suggest a phonebooth
Hey....Good for Tua!
Hope he pulls it off and gets his shot.
However, if arreola were to come through with a tough win, it would be a great feather in his cap.
Very excited about this
tua ko
arreola to easy to hit
I'd lov eto see this fight, everyone knows what tua can do but will he bring it to the ring at this late stage? Arreola looked decent last time i saw him against chazz witherspoon but i'd agree his conditioning is questionable and can see tua beating him, kayo in the 10th
Wrong fight for Arreola. Tua is completely the wrong guy. The only way to beat Tua is by boxing him and Chris is not a boxer, but a brawler/puncher. And power doesn´t bother Tua...he´s got an iron chin. Arreola is a very good prospect, but that´s all he is....a prospect. Tua knocks him out but it should be a good fight. Makes you feel good that Tua could be landing another shot at the title, considering all the top guys he´s beaten and all the waiting he has done. Look how many chances Jameel Mccline has had. Tua has only had one, and that was against a guy who was all wrong for HIM!
Im thinking Arreola,they didnt do a Mike Tyson and massage his record with bums. Damian Wills was 21-0,Chazz Witherspoon was 23-0,Thomas Hayes was 26-1,Malcom Tann was 23-2
And frankly Tua looks shot lately
Tua's chin is insane. If Arreola doesn't pack a lunch for a 12 round trip Tua will be there, ready to eat him, once he gasses out. And look at Arreola's body- it's made for running out of fuel.
yea...he deserves another title shot anywayQuote:

But I think Arreola being younger, active & hungry will be enough to carry him through to a decisive decsion win, possibly a late stoppage!
i've spoke with Tua and the last thing i said to him was knock out all those pansy Heavyweight champions, and he said he would. Hopefully he does i would love to see him get a title no one deserves it more than him.
COME ON TUA.
wow.....so i was looking at his record found out he never held one of the top four titles......that was a big surprise to me
Not around THROUGH imo.Not because I am saulting from the Witherspoon fight.Well maybe a little. I will say one round less Tua get's him in 4.Quote:

I can't understand why Arreloa would want a fight like this so early in his career?!?!? I can easily see a Ruiz like destruction at the hands of a motivated David Tua...
Risk vs. Reward.
If Arreola were to win, it would be a huge skin for such a young fighter.
A name recognised by the fans & some expierience in the ring with a huge hitter.
