    I'm not against this fight. This is probably more competitive than the one with old, out of prime Thurman, who used his bike with a nobody like Bundu even during 'Once Upon A Time's prime years.

    Fundora was in current training anyways with his own separate fight, so this late replacement excuse is idiotic nonsense. Tim would even make drastic adjustments because of the height difference, while Fundora would just resume his regular training.

    So this is not bad. Fight will eventually get made anyways because Sebastian is the only one expected to step up and fight Tszyu. Get the fight over with. Charlo would have ducked Fundora too.​

            But he doesn't fight tall, he actually leans in and smothers himself and is not a big puncher. although being Sth Paw could affect Tim, other that Sth Paw I think Fundora is easier than Thurman and a better style matchup for Tim than Thurman was, also Tim would have agreed before Fundora was even asked.

            Late replacement fights just load the excuse gun, ah well is what it is.

              How does Fundora from getting brutally KO'd to an immediate title fight with Tyszu? I wasn't excited for Thurman but at least there was a decent style matchup. Fundora is only competitive because of his freakish size, he sucks.

              The only good thing about this fight is that Tszyu will break Fundora down and stop him.

                Waiting for Ryan Garcia to pull out next. 2024 has been the year of injuries and cancellations

                  this is another classic switcheroo pbc tactic



                  reschedule the event or you ain't getting a shot at the belt


                  I gotz a funny feeling Tim would probably tell you to fuq off!

                    Lets be honest KEEF is done and it probably would've been a horrible loss for him. He gave ten good years of great fights so he should walk off intothe sunset and let the youngins take over. Fundora is still one of my fav fighters so this is much better than Kudzoo vs KEEF. Even tho this isn't a PPV fight I'm still going to buy it. You know why? Because I recently stopped drinking and now I have tons of 'disposable income' at my hand. hahahahaha

                      With that same thinking, how does keith thurman get a title shot vs tim tszyu? He beat mario barrios…..TWO YEARS AGO.
