Let's be honest Tszyu let his titles leave

[MONGOOSE66]

Fundora was a late replacement, so of course Tszyu was ill prepared. I think that accepting such an awkward opponent as a late replacement can be perceived as arrogant, but I don't think you have to be elite to give Fundora trouble. Fundora got hurt by Lubin and stopped by Mendoza. Fundora is someone you must dedicate a full training camp for, because his physical attributes are very unique for his weight class.

That’s my point. You don’t save to be elite to beat Fundora. Tszyu didn’t do very basic things you do to a taller fighter. VERY basic. He’s not that smart.

Tszyu foght like a man and a true warrior. Just..he is not very good.

He had a choice in there, "do I want to walk through the gates to valhalla"

And the answer was no.

He could have left it all out there, cut or no cut but he didn't really let his hands go.

I don't want to hear any complaints, if Tszyu really wanted it it would have been him or Fundora getting carried out of the ring at the end not hugging each other.

He didn't want it enough, no excuses, I don't want to hear excuses from boxers who are still standing at the end of a fight.

Man, shut up!

Who are you, again? You didn’t throw a punch or bleed an ounce of blood but you come in here, half-****ed, beating your chest and telling us you don’t want to hear any complaints?! A boxing CHAMPION didn’t want it enough?

Cho ass up!

Point is, Tszyu was cut badly and couldn’t see! Why is this so hard for people to understand?

Yes, he could’ve totally sold out and made a damn fool of himself. He had a great first 2 rounds and provided an idea of how he wanted to go about the fight.

I get it, however, he does have other potential opponents watching him so why go all out, make major mistakes, and give the sharks more ammunition?

It’s bad enough his opponent is 6’6 with crazy arm reach, so he’d have to sell out a bit anyway, but blood running down his face would’ve led to even more mistakes if he let it all hang out.

As far as I’m concerned, I saw Tim press the action even more in round 3, but c’mon, how much more could you ask of him at that point?

I say great fight on both guys’ part.

FYI…Fundora didn’t sell out and he had a blind fighter in front of him—that says a lot, too.

If Fundora tells Sampson Lewkowicz and Al Haymon to **** off, and decides to fight Crawford, not only will i become a huge fan of his, i'll be rooting for him to win that fight lol

That would be such a gangster move
