    I was surprised when the Tzsyu vs Thurman was announced. This injury thing didn't surprise me at all. I actually expected it. Huge setback for PBC.

          Honestly does anyone care?

          This fight was a typical, young champion vs a guy who was a half name 5-10 years ago type affair.

          Nothing about thurman style was going to make for an intreaguing matchup it's just the typical boxing headliner we get these days where we are 90% sure of the outcome and the only question is can Tszyu stop thurman.

          ****ty fight don't care that thurman is out, just retire Keith.

            I dont think they can they going to lose out on this, it was touch and go with Thurman but now a late replacement at $75.

              Are you upset Regge that it's Fundora who's coming from a stoppage defeat and not the other way round the way you like? Haha. Isn't this what fuels your delusion though with Mexicans getting wins under these conditions? You know it's coming too with this comment.

              I'm going to enjoy Tim wreaking him. I guess Mexicans aren't cut out for this level. Funny thing is, you're not. You lose badly in one sided fashion on a level playing field. Under these conditions, you only get wreaked much quicker.

                It's actually the Mexican and American way. Have you not been paying attention?

                    I thought the exact same thing.

                    At the same time, though, one imagines Tszyu catching Fundora at some point. And if Mendoza did what he did to him, I can't see how Tszyu doesn't manage to do the same, and possibly worse.

                    Still, a little money on Fundora might be an option...

                      Its not going to backfire, he doesn't fight tall, he isn't physically strong, doesn't have much power and smothers his own shots, I think Tim will be way too strong for Fundora.

                      Looks as you say on paper but if you deep dive into Fundora and his resume I don't see him giving Tim any issues at all.
