In This Corner, Hosted by Smitty: Season 3, Episode 29
Most experts would agree that David Tua is one of the most dangerous fighters never to have won the heavyweight championship, but there is more to the man than just that fact. He is an Olympic bronze medalist, a man who stopped four men who would win the title, and humble, God-fearing man.
SmittyBoxing and LeeGrovesBoxing recount Tua's life and career in this week's episode, which will also honor the 100th anniversary of one of the wildest title fights ever staged (Jack Dempsey-Luis Angel Firpo that took place September 14, 1923) and celebrate George Chuvalo's 86th birthday, which occurred September 12.
