Talk:David Tua

Untitled
His left hook destined him to be a champion but problems with his manager Kevin Barry interfered with his career. -- I'm a Tua fan but this is a ridiculous statement and certainly not NPOV. Some might argue his lack of discipline, conditioning and limited style has played a bigger part that problems with his manager.


 * Alternatively you could look at it and say at the very least it did basically end his carreer a lot earlier due to his problems with his manager. Mathmo 06:25, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Overhaul
I'm removing the long list of his professional record; no other boxer on Wikipedia (that I've seen) has his entire record listed, and it is available on Boxrec (which I'm adding a link to). Also, I'm adding the boxer infobox. --Tthaas 13:29, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite
Rewrote most of comeback and added external reference links. Added Video Links section. Deleted the talk page as it was old and the discussed changes had been done. BooneDoc 07:51, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Restored Deletion of previous discussions as that was a violation of Talk Page Guidelines. Old discussion can be archived once excessive, but it hasn't reached that point yet. Retaining the old discussion should deter people from recreating content that was removed. dramatic 08:42, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks dramatic - I'm a newbie and appreciated the pointers. BooneDoc 20:24, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Tua Vs Cameron
The match up between NZ's top two heavyweights has been confirmed for June 6th, 2009. It is a must win for both fighters. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.50.239.190 (talk) 03:51, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Only One Shot At Heavyweight Title?
"While Tua only received one shot at a heavyweight title belt"

but what about these heavyweight titles?

* WBC International Heavyweight title * USBA Heavyweight title * IBF Inter-Continental Heavyweight title * NABF Heavyweight title

shouldn't this say only received one shot at a WBA heavyweight title or something?

Member of the legendary wrestling faimly.
Its says he is a member of the legendary samoan wrestling faimly... So is he related to WWE wrestlers such as Afa,Umaga,Rikishi and Dwyane "The Rock" Johnson. I find this really hard to believe and im asking if this is true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.72.196.249 (talk) 08:36, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Tua's original name
The court documents from his recent case give his legal name as Mafaufau Sita. Doe this match up with the name listed in the RHS box which seems to have other 'surnames'
