Sorry, champ. Had no idea who I was talking to.
Son, this is boxing and all Fundora did was land land land land all night long. The best boxers in the world use distance to their advantage. He not only won this fight but won it convincingly. The ring was totally his after round two all night long. He ran him around like a matador does a bull. Your insight is exactly what is wrong in the world today. When celebrity worship overtakes all common sense of what is before our very eyes….gaslighting anyone?
You're the expert on boxing here.
And you know boxers use distance and reach.
Well, you're way ahead of me and the rest of the plebs on the forum.
You probably thought Rolly Romero was winning the fight until he got all glassy eyed and started slurring his words, right?
I don't understand your 'insights' with bulls & matadors and what's wrong with the world today.
Celebrity worship, common sense, gaslighting?
Sounds like you're pulling **** out of your arse now. Sorry.Comment

Calm down and take your meds mate.
Listen Lancelot, most fighters lose at some stage. You don't have to **** on them.
I'm sure you wouldn't even step into the ring to face a bloke like Fundora or Tim Tszyu.
You like typing things on your little keyboard. I get it.Comment

Sticking and moving is fine, but landing harder cleaner punches should count for something?
Not sure I understand, the post reads that judges should award the fight to the man trying most to get closest to his opponent.
So you cant win a fight by jabbing and being better at a distance? I have seen a number of fights won by a boxer sticking and moving on the perimeter, should that not happen?
Fundora used the jab not as offensive tool. It was a defensive tool to keep Tszyu on the outside and break up Tszyu attacks and his rhythm.
So he was spoiling while Tszyu was setting up his attacks.
Most people thought that Fundora won because they saw the volume of jabs and saw it as offense.
It was not, he was fending off Tszyu's attacks.
My point is sticking and moving and largely avoiding exchanges is not how you win titles.
It's not dominant.
You can defend your titles this way, but not win them like this.Comment

No, not at all. The man clearly won the fight despite all odds being against him. He wasn’t “the chosen one” he wasn’t the one everyone was expecting, he wasn’t “a-side” backed by big promoters who take officials to dinner the night prior with a wink and a nod. He upset the apple cart and I absolutely love it. All should cheer a success story yet we bash it. Hell, I like Tim too and think no differently of him post fight. He’ll still have a successful career. But in that night he lost plain and simple. Doesn’t matter how. He didn’t overcome his own odds to win against someone he was supposed to. He lost and after two he was completely outclassed. This is why they fight and this will be why Tim gets better.

Hush clown. Tsyzu was acting like he is great when he hasn't even accomplished anything of note, led people to believe that he is a throwback fighter of the past when he is clearly not, and was crapping on other fighters himself, so he got what was coming.Comment

Look...you have your own views and whoever you think the big money and big promoters are backing.

I don't know or care who takes who to dinner and what they talk about.
I just watch what happens during the fight.
Don't really care what the gossip is but there'll always be politics.
Bottom line is: it looks like we may get to see a re-match between Fundora and Tszyu.
Apparently Fundora's team is willing to honour the re-match clause.
This time around hoping there's no cut or other surprises, we get to see how it will unfold.Comment
