I love everything about this fight. Of course Tszyu will want that Fundora rematch as well, but I am actually way more excited for an Ortiz-Tszyu rumble.

Anyone heard from Keef lately? He kinda disappeared after the fake injury before the Tszyu fight.

I get the feeling we've seen the last of Tim. He stayed too long in the outback, his time is getting short.

This is Ortiz's meal ticket no doubt. People know Tim and if he beats him (which certainly could happen), he is totally and immediately relevant. I would love to see the fight!

I don't know about "young" contender. Tim is pushing 30. Not saying hes old but he is no spring chicken contender he is former world champ thats been in a few wars now..

Tim will never lose another fight. The amount of oxygen, red blood cells, hemoglobin his body lost due to the cut vs Fundora is crazy that he still had the desire, energy, ability he showed to finish the way he did tells me, a healthy Tim won’t get beat.

This is a great fight
Tim the stubborn man vs Virgil the relentless

Glad we get to see Mexicans vs Ukrainians, Australians (part Russian), instead of boring Afro Americans holding, running and dancing.

Everytime I hear about this fight, I only hear Vergil talking about it. I don't think I've ever heard Tim talking about it.

The fight got announced just a couple of weeks after Tszyu was in that bloodbath, I remember thinking there was no way it was happening.

Did Tim even know this fight was supposedly on?
