Seems not all roads lead to the Saudi oil money.

I'm with you all the way until Canelo v Benavidez. Benny moved up to lhw now. No sense in trying to straddle two weight classes; just commit to the one. And if Canelo wouldnt fight him a smw he most def wont fight him at lhw. That train has left the station.

I'm just thinking that PBC will not have that many major cards with Turki in the game! They have Canelo and Tank, but fighting who?

After losing to Fundora this guy is accelerated going down and he knows well. Ortiz or any other in the division will retire him. Now using excuses to avoid the reality...

I wouldn’t say using your bony sharp elbow to cut someone’s head open is fair and square probably not intentional but the fact remains it changed the course of the fight significantly.

He won fair and square bro. In boxing $h!t happens. We don’t know how the rest of fight would’ve played out we can guess but everyone knows boxing changes in a flash. Fundora is the king of the division he deserved to win. I’d lean tsyzu in a rematch and I hope it happens soon but I don’t take away from fundora he’s a great fighter that’s gets written off cause Mendoza lucky punch KOd him in a fight he lost every minute of

What happens to Fundora when Tim has his red blood cells flowing the right way? I’m thinking KO’d.

Then tim is king again. That’s how it works when u beat the king u get his crown. Not sure why people think this is different lol

I respect what Turki is doing but he has to realize boxing isn't the UFC (yet). There are guys like Joshua, Canelo and Tank that are worldwide stars and guys like Tszyu & Ionue that are megastars in their respective countries. You aren't getting these guys to budge financially or against what they want.

IMHO he crushes Ortiz, crumbles fundora in a rematch but ends up getting washed by Crawford. I like Tim but he can’t just come out and say “I said no to turki because he wants me to fight Crawford” which is the flat out truth.

Oh I see. Yeah, they have to adapt the business model or lose market share, like any business in changing times. And this is def a time of change in boxing.

Dude isn’t the king of shyt LOL.. he never even earned the WBO strap in the ring.. Charlo was the last certified king of the division..

Tszyu wanted no parts of the smoke with Vergil, and you see they never mention Vergil’s name.

Tim has unfinished business with old time.
