David Tua is in line to become the next World Boxing Foundation heavyweight champion of the world.

New WBF champion Kali Meehan has announced he has a two bout deal and will now fight Oliver McCall and then Tua.

The WBF is one of the less established boxing organisations in the world and is the same title New Zealand based Samoan heavyweight Jimmy Thunder held briefly in 1993.
