Tua to feel wrath of Cameron’s ‘better than new’ hand

Shane ‘The Mountain Warrior’ Cameron has come through a training session today, saying his hand is “better than new”.

Cameron has been given the go ahead to start punching in training ahead of New Zealand’s ‘Fight of the Century’ against David Tua at Mystery Creek on October 3.

Cameron’s manager Ken Reinsfield says surgeon Tim Tasman-Jones is extremely pleased with Shane’s rapid progress following surgery and saw no future problems with the boxer’s right hand.

“Shane has now been able to put the injury out of his mind, and will be punching at full power once the bell rings on October 3,“ said Reinsfield.

Cameron says his hand is “better than new” and will be a key part of his armoury against Tua.

“I’ll be ready for David Tua, but will he be ready for Shane Cameron”.
