Comments Thread For: Sebastian Fundora is the fighter to beat at 154, says Tim Tszyu

Heh.
Zoo is polite and won't say the C-word in public, apparently.
You think Zoo knows who Crawford is?

Assuming he wins against Murtazaliev, if Tszyu's planning some unification fights, I'd hope that he knows the name of the other non-Fundora beltholder even if he doesn't know his face...

Of course he does.

That reminds me, who was it that Crawford was mistaken for last month at some basketball game or wherever?

Sorry, dunno

[factsarenice]

Isn't it obvious? If you do the math, in every scenario Crawford is in his 40's before they let him near Tim Tszyu and like it of not, that's the plan..... and everything else is chit chat BS.

Tzoo is all class old school

No mention of the Crawford vs Fundora fight ordered by the WBO, which want their belt back in the possession of T Bud.

Tim was asked many times (in other interviews) about Crawford and he acknowledged his skills, his track record, but still said he wanted to fight Bud. He is not avoiding him, ignoring him. Just did not mention him in this interview. I like Tim but I did not think he should poke that bear at this stage in his career development. Bud would seriously damage Tim's career. Nobody has been quite the same once they got humiliated by Bud.

[BrankoB]

By the way, the title of the story is misleading. Tim knows Fundora is not the best because he was on his way to beating him up when the cut happened. In other interviews he freely acknowledged that in his opinion Crawford was the best fighter on the planet, but that he would still like to fight him.

Fundora is big but vulnerable. He has been both dropped and stopped before by much smaller and shorter men than himself. For all of his physical ability; He still has a very limited skillset.
