In the modern age with 4 straps in circulation it remains one of the great travesties that Tua only ever fought once for a title. It's almost actually impossible to do that.

Well, one man held three of those straps during Tua's very short prime, and a lot of heavyweights were wary of fighting for the WBO title because they'd risk losing their rankings in the other three organizations. Tua turtled up against Lennox Lewis's power, and really did nothing against Chris Byrd in their IBF eliminator.
