Pro

He lost by technical knockout to then-undefeated Andrew Golota in a fight, where Golota was nearly knocked out by Po'uha, out of desperation he resort to biting Po'uha on the side of his neck during a clinch. Po'uha later lost to a journeyman Jesse Ferguson. Overall he had a pro career record of 20-5-1 with 18 KOs. Mr. Po'uha retired in 2003.
