tua weighs in fat for fight with barrett...

[ruthless rocco]

its a surprise because in an interview leading up to the fight tua revealed that he is broke and homeless, living out of his gym with his wife and daughter. that winning the fight would ensure that they could buy a house to live in and live in a respectable manner.

so i would have expected him to train a little harder... especially since he is litterally living in his gym right now.

Take the fork out of his hand and stick it in him.

Rematching Barrett...kinda says all you need to know

He was lucky to get a draw first time round. Why come in so heavy?...

Cuz his heart isn't fully into boxing anymore. Tua has been done long ago. He's now just fighting for a paycheck and he's probably counting on a hometown gift..

222 is a good fighting weight for Barrett and it looks like he's trained his ass off.. I know that he got into a new conditioning program and it really shows..

Barrett is also highly motivated because he feels left out of the percentage that's going to be split between Sky and Tua..

He's ready for this..

Monte is one of the few HWs who still comes in inshape.

He might even be in good enough shape to jump over the ropes without tripping.
