Tua had the perfect opportunity to make a strong comeback right after Vitaly left the sport. The heavyweight division was wide open and Tua was part of the elite before the Sultan's, Chagaev's and Valuev's started to appear.
yes i feel what you are saying being a huge tua fan myself, but much of his problems were due to his poor shady management and financial as well as legal burdens that hindered his over all game plan. he has been getting his weight down atleast and taking his road work and training rather seriously for his last couple of fights.

he will always go down as one of those fighters who could of done so much damage in his prime, just as ike and such would
