Comments Thread For: Commission Ruling Will Sideline Sebastian Fundora Until Late September

[champion4ever]

Wow! Where does one even begin to start sorting out this mess? Also, how can the Nevada commission suspend Fundora? This action is unprecedented.

He wasn’t stopped or KO. I believe they are secretly working in cahoots with Team Crawford and Team Tszyu in order to sabotage a potential Spence/Fundora fight.

How is it any of Sebastian’s fault that Team Tszyu decided not to stop the fight due to an illegal elbow? That’s when the fight should have been stopped.

I may be wrong but it’s just one boxing fan’s opinion.

[champion4ever]

Because of his broken nose? Have other fighters been suspended for it in the past? Seems a little sketchy.

No! You are right. It is very sketchy.

This is all politics at its worst. It’s a feeble attempt by the NSAC to prevent Fundora from defending his titles against Spence.

This decision smacks of corruption in every sense of the word.

Aside from getting battered in his last fight wtf has Spence done to deserve a title shot at 154.

This!

So 12 rounds were not enough to ko Fundora, he needs 12 more. Okay

Marquez needed 42 rounds to knockout Pacquiao.

Why is this even a story?

All fundora has to do is vacate the wbo and all this goes away.

It's a medical decision that's not in the hands of the sanctioning body or fighter's team. It's done to protect the fighter from himself.

I agree that Spence is shot, but as long as he has commercial appeal to his profoundly dumb fans, Al will keep trotting him out there.

If you believe the Nevada State Athletic Commision are up front and incorruptible then you’re incredible naive. They’ve paid a doctor to suggest a broken nose takes 6 months to heal purely in the hope Tszyu gets bored and elects to take another fight in the meantime which then gives them a get out clause. Same commission that approved Mayweather’s various TUE’s for hand injections and the like again a PBC fighter. All big PBC fights happen in vegas and the commission know how much money that brings. It has nothing to do with protecting the fighter - go ask any doctor you want how long a broken nose takes to fix and guarantee you none will say 6 months unless they’re being paid to do so. Blatant.

Marquez needed 42 rounds to knockout Pacquiao.

And your point is? Because I don't think they're facing each other three more times.

[QUOTE=SteveM;n32220158]just go and fight in lol damnit kid. this is nsac decision. Hey, Hey!, Hey!, Are you still in there!! to quote the always entertaining Charlie Manson.

[Dee @ PYP Boxing]

Corrupt. Clearly a PBC influenced move to deter Tszyu from enforcing his rematch clause. Idiotic.

Easy solution, don’t fight in vegas. The nevada commission have f all to do with things. I hope Tszyu forces rematch and does it in a stadium in Australia.

Aside from getting battered in his last fight wtf has Spence done to deserve a title shot at 154. Fundora, Tszyu and crawford would all stop him at 154. He’s done. Reactions gone, punch resistance gone and no discipline between fights. Spence had gone same way as Hatton and it’s obvious to anyone that’s watched the sport for any length of time. Familiar pattern.

I read that Tszyu was not planning to return until the fall, so this falls right in line with Fundora's suspension ending (with even a possible tune up in between) and also puts a plug on a Spence fight this summer. Seems like the sun is shining on Tszyu a little bit here.

I guess we see boxing rematch in November or December but will it be for WBO belt. Tszyu and Fundora have zero interest in Crawford Madrimov or Bohachuk at this point.
