    After watching the fight again, Tszyu appeared to run his head right into Fundora's elbow. Calling it a foul of any sort is weird. Fundora appeared to be backing away and Tszyu ducked right into the elbow. Maybe it was the camera angle

        You already know PBC wasn’t stopping nothing. A 3-4 round stoppage would have been a failed first PPV venture with Amazon.

        Tim made $10M **** a L and told Errol Spence to call him if he ever wants to fight. “A little Blood never killed nobody.” T. Tsyzu

          He ram his head onto the body, the elbow was guarding that zone.

            I sssumed because it was PBC ‘s debut on prime contributed to the fight not getting stopped because that wasn’t smart to continue

              Yeah, his elbow was there. Tszyu had to duck his head to practically waist level to hit it. It was more like Tszyu headbutted Fundora's elbow lol. Definitely one of the strangest injuries I've seen.

                He was aiming to the body, you do know that a headbutt to the body hurts like a mfvkr, especially if hits the solar plexus, all the nerves are there, good tactic if he did it on purpose.

                    Interesting take, as Jacob "Stitch" Duran said that kind of cut is very difficult to stop.

                      I too felt like the corner was not prepared. I got roasted on another post suggesting it. That tiny q-tip is the only thing they had, no large swab or gauze. The wood shaft of the q-tip was being compressed into the wound with the towel. Who knows if the bleeding could be stopped, probably not. But they didn’t have the right tools or technique.
