he fought bowie n looks like a thai so what do u wankers have to say now yer im heaps a junkie you old pricks

Sitsianboth was 5'7" tall with what looks like a made up record. Tupou KOed him in a minute. He probably taught you English. Blame whoever promotes for the Croatian Club.

Saw this in another thread and had to post it here

I notice that all of Sitsianboth's fights before he fought Kim Heta have been wiped from his record. Probably a fat waiter from a Thai restaurant in Darlinghurst.

Yes! He made his US debut (Friday Night in US - Saturday lunchtime Syd AUST)... He has no family problems other then your everyday family issues everyone else has so he has a normal life too. We're all excited and happy for him and believe me ... He has the goods and what it takes to get there... Just Sit back... relax and enjoy.

I was at the fight on Friday night in the U.S.
Stay tuned. Should be fighting next month on 5 October, venue tbd. Should also be fighting on 30 November again at the Chumash Casino.
His debut was before a sold out crowd. About 2k in attendance.
People are rightfully expecting great things from Bowie.
Bo is SUPER fit from all the training. Weighed in at 260.
Bo dropped Clark with a left hook to the body in the 4th. When Clark went down he claimed to roll his ankle and was carried out on a stretcher. Didn't stop Clark from having a feed moments later in the cafeteria having showered already. IMO Clark didn't want any more of Tupou. And, rightfully so.

I suppose Clark's excuse would be that he does not eat with his ankle. Maybe next time they will put Bo in against someone who has won fights regularly.

Both Clarke's record and appetite are respectable.
Bowie will be fighting on October 5 at the Fantasy Indian Resort and Casino in Palm Springs, California, opponent tbd.

TBD.... Is he TBA's kid brother?

By the way. I see Clark fought a draw a few years ago with Welliver.

I see that Billy Zumbrun, regarded as unlucky to lose a split decision to former World Champion to Riddick Bowe in 2005, lost an eight rounder to Donnell Holmes on the same card, and that Boxrec now rates Bowie higher than Zumbrun. Bo is rated 117 to Zumbrun's 168. At least he is movinng up the ladder and is still unbeaten.

I would still like him to be more active.

Bushboy · Post by **Bushboy** » 01 Nov 2007, 02:43

yeh at least one fight a month.. he could build up a decent following from the pacific islander community and be a drawcard

There were only four weeks between his last two fights.

By the way, does anybody know if Bowie tupou is related to John "King Kava" Tupou? it does not seem a very common name.

Yeah but he had a fair wack of time off before that. I know there were certain circumstances surrounding that but I just want to see him stick with constant fights for a while...

Brute · Post by **Brute** » 05 Nov 2007, 04:58

Roger that, but is he related to John "King Kava" Tupou?

Did anyone catch Bowie's latest win over Jason Bergman?
