It'd be fun to bet the weight at which Tua shows up at. I think the over/under would have to be around 250.

Briggs should retire. I really never cared for the guy back in the day, why would I now?

How old is Tua getting to be nowdays? i know he was a trainer, now this announcement of him fighting again. even if his comeback is no good he still has the training job. he trains Mighty Mo over in K-1, and he has been pretty damn good as of late. so he is a good trainer at least.

Does Tua still have it in him to be a contender, or will he be fed to guys like Peter?

Anyone with his power and chin has a shot in the division in my opinion. Tua's got loads of experience, and if he's in good shape he's a Top 10 guy for sure in my opinion. He'd have loads of problems against Vitali though, as I see that fight going like his bout against Lewis. I wouldn't say that he's going to be "fed" to anyone, he's not an easy matchup at all. Peter/Tua would be sloppy to say the least, and I don't know who would win at this point. Someone is getting stopped though, you can't have a good enough chin to weather a barrage of punches from either of those guys in my opinion.
