Comments Thread For: Fundora: Lubin Was Very Brave, I Hope He Heals Up Quickly

[richardt]

There's a young kid from Cuba, fighting at 154lbs. I'm pretty sure he can knockout anyone in that division. He's only five fights into his professional career, but, he was a good amateur. Yoelvis Gomez, also William Scull can cause a lot problems fir any 154 pounder. Then again, the fights has to happen for that prediction to come through, or not.

The question is WHO besides Cuban boxers do you like????

The knock down was a plus in my book. Any man who gets up is dangerous, but Fundora was thinking too. He took a knee and avoided a bad moment. He wasn't on his back.

Charlo will cut that tree down, and this gangly MF is going down in sections....

Now? Charlo(160), Stevenson, Bivol, Joe Smith Fury, Crawford, Spence, Roman, Nonito, Inoe. Years ago, Duran, Napoles, Legra, Ramos, Foreman, Cooney, Saad Muhammed, Whitrespoon, Eddie Gregory, Michael Spinks, Dwight Qawi, Murray Sutherland. Chacon, Arguello, Marvin Johnson, Tyson, pretty sure I'm missing a few. A few years back and my favorite, MAB and Finito Lopez, again, I'm not as young as I used to be, and most certainly some of them are escaping my memory. I follow the Cuban fighters because I was born there. For more than five decades we didn't have any represantation, and when they started to come in, they were old and deep in their amateur ways. In recent years, the new little wave, has been younger and hungrier, I'm very excited for it, so all the real fans that has missed the likes of Napoles, Luis Manuel, Nino Valdes, Ultiminio Ramos, Legra and others. Real fans should be looking, and follow these kids. Cuban boxers fight anyone and everyone, they're no divas. Stay safe.

I doubt Charlo and Fundora will ever fight. The more people will call for it, the more Charlo will proclaim Fundora hasn’t done enough to earn a fight and pull out the Fundora “don’t want this smoke” line - which is code for “He night beat me - I don’t want any part of him.”

"We NEEDED this win to get us to bigger fights". But there are "false rumors" that his hands were loaded. Do you really think just because he had someone watching that his gloves or wraps could not have been loaded? Margarito vs Cotto 1 i.e

I think Fundora is a problem, but what happened to Lubin's face doesn't occur naturally. I emailed the NSAC to ask them to investigate the matter. HIGHLY doubt I'll hear anything back. BUT, the integrity of the sport is at stake.

If I was a fighter at 154, I'd relentlessly attack Fundora's body; his only weak spot- and avoid as many punches as possible.

He may be great...but he may also be a cheat. ♂️

I also doubt he gets charlo..at this point it's common top guys rarely take tough fights.. boxing is a bidness doe. As for boots n Ortiz, Nobody taking those fights.

At least now they can turn pro without having to practically drown in small boats. When Casamayor won the gold, he was given a bicycle which he had to sell to buy a pig to feed people. That was an insult to him. Now at least Cuban's can make some proper money and go back and forth from Cuba and the US.

This guy has an out-of-the-world performance (questions marks about a glove coming off and hand wraps ala Margarito and drug testing his last fights) vs. a string of subpar - ok fights and now Charlo is running from him. If Charlo becomes undisputed, why in the world would he stay at 154 for the GREAT Fundora? This is like DAZN unwilling to pay for Jenibek and telling Andrade to fight Parker to line up for Canelo but the fanboys who hear an EAstern Euro or Central Asian name start screaming duck. Somebody has to explain that one to me. Tim is logical because of the Australian payday upwards of 5-10 million if Charlo takes the road trip and his position in line and of course Crawford for a disputed vs disputed meeting.

Now, the world is afraid of Fundora.

Amen to that brother.
