| I have to agree with some of the sentiments here regarding Cameron and the local fight scene. Im expecting Tua to win the fight. He'll move on to the states like before and NZ Boxings poster boy will just fade away along with the crowd. The problem is there isn't enough HW fighters in NZ to fuel interest unlike the Oz's who have a whole stable of guys making the division at the very least interesting and competitive. Cameron vs Haumono/ Ben Edwards/ Leapai /Hoppa? these fights would've generated just as much interest imho and would've been in league with Camerons level atm. As Klitchko clearly demonstrated recently when you step up to a certain level of fighter who has amassed a wealth of experience, talent means very little... |

| unfortunately i have to agree with your comments about a lack of real boxing actually happening i know it is hard and yes very dangerous but to say you are the best and then only to defend your crown when it suits is just not right and the sport has definitely come into disrepute in recent years also all the different belts does not help either the is only one best soccer team, one best rugby team, every one wants their slice of the pie i suppose just like me really making this comment i would just like to see a good clean boxing display but that most likely will not happen for one reason or another but if proved wrong i will be happy best luck for both (no real or serious injuries as this is a bloody dangerous sport) |

Saw the weigh in on the news. Tua looks great, so does Cameron, but Camerons only 5kgs or so heavier.
The reporter mentioned something about the fight being stopped by a cut before 4 rounds it will be ruled a no contest. |

Official weights are in - Tua @ 107.8 kg (237.6 pounds) Cameron @ 103.5kg (228.2 pounds)
Tua has been described as "a little squishy" around the middle and Cameron as "ripped from head to toe"
Pics should be up in a little while.... |

I'm glad Shane has his supporters. I've always said I think shane is good for NZ boxing, and that this is the wrong fight for him.
Gopod luck to both guys, I'm a fan of both, but a bigger one of Tua I guess. And for once my heart and head are in agreement - this is Tua's fight. |

| I'm backing TUA medal at the olympics for NZ, HW champ of nz at 15... ohhh hang on did I just say NZ heavyweight CHAMP representing NZ. Care to tell me what constitutes a KIWI in your world? I would have thought it was anyone who lived and paid taxes here or as in DAVID'S case represented this country proudly. CAMERON on the floor in 4. TUA 4 the win. |

| bungas? cocnuts? lol what a hater. Did you think that all these so called bungas and coconuts paid their way to the All Blacks, boxing, world record holders in shot put, sevens, politcs ( ok, maybe not a good call politics) etc? What an ignorant attitude. Nuff said, You'll live a life of jealousy, ignorance and fear. Have it all newage and fried pork lol. You're both pathetic. |

There are some people on this forum who, unfortunately, crave for attention so much that the only way they can do this is by firing insults at supporterâs ethnicity and by making other derogatory comments about them without any constructive posts about the fight.
I can only imagine that the person making comments about âbungaâsâ is the same person who smiles at them without saying a word in their face.
I can also imagine that this person has friends or family who are âbungaâsâ but because he/she is so angry at the lack of his/her own ability to make any worthwhile comments about the fighters, that they have to lower themselves down to playground assaults on people.
I could be wrong in both of these, which then mean that this person is just an angry soul with so much venom in their blood; who dislikes certain people because of fear of something they donât understand. Last century someone shared youâre same hate and changed the fate of more than 4 million people. Sad. |

that down againt rahman i wouldnt really call that a down more of a tip and fell back if anything, in tuas pro career i would have to say i dont think the has ever been a boxer that has rocked him with a good punch to the point where the legs turned to jelly...
as for you cameron fans this is a message board to talk about fact not to chuck abuse at the tua fans......
but i get it at the end of the day you guys dont have any really good things to say about cameron, well ill help you
yes he is a really good boxer ill give him that much and to be ranked 6th in the WBO again really good "BUT"....
this is david tua we are talking about the man till this day still holds records and after all the talk and everything else that has been going on and what i have seen in the build-up tua is preped primed and ready to go.
sorry cameron i think you have biten a bit more than you can chew.
im going TUA round 4 KO |
