Teddy Atlas on Sebastian Fundora's Upset of Tim Tszyu 

The belts Fundora holds says otherwise

@@easthou1 that's a stupid remark,if it wasn't for the cut on his head he would of ko him first of all the fight should of been stop straight away and a rematched fight later,you wait and see he will mop the floor with your fighters,like he did to Horn,Harrison and mondosa.

@@waynemarchel9667 Jeff Horn is garbage lol, he was gifted a win against Pac. And you gauge the tone of the fight off 2 rounds. You must never have watched boxing.

@@easthou1 of course i watched it,like I said if not for the cut he would of won easily,he will kill him in the rematch if Fundora doesn't make excuses like a lot of your fighters do, Crawford and Spence would of done what Tszyu done in that fight he is a extremely tough fighter from old school,they both would of stop the fight,Tim needs to fight Spence or Crawford next Fundora is too long to wait,he can get the belts back then

@@waynemarchel9667 I don't see how you can gauge a fight by just 2 rounds and the first 2 rounds at that. It's irresponsible to say you know for a fact Tim would win by just seeing 2 rounds. It definitely makes you sound like you have never seen boxing

fights like that are hard to come by . every true boxing fan would rather watch that then a spence craw x2 . I would love to see craw tszyu . I feel bud will win but you nvr know with this tszyu boy . he is a warrior

No discredit to Fundora but after all the post fight reviews, all the expert commentary, every professional, every casual fan from all corners of the globe saying that the fight changed after the cut…holding those two belts must feel hollow.

@@craigjenks9064zoo needs another fight or 2 b4 crawfd

@@DarrenC81not when his sister and whole family are telling him he’s the champ lol.. but maybe he knows deep down

Card was pretty entertaining

Tim was the one who was one dimensional. When he couldn’t walk Fundora down he was ineffective. He’s horrible on his back foot

@@Vjl5280 True. Though im a Tim fan... But Fundora is a sound boxer. His height deceives ppl.

Common man. This is boxing... Imagine if all Past fighter's argued like you??? Bunch of Cry babies nowadays and look for the easy way out. Tim is the one who went into Fundoras elbow... Why because the height of Fundora made him reckless... Though I wanted Tim to win. But I hate Cry babies especially in America which is the downfall of our Nation.

Easy as that

@@Vjl5280he’s fine on his back foot, he was fighting blind against a 6ft 6 opponent

The only thing that matters is the score cards. Our opinion doesn't make someone lose or win

scorecards were off, Tim should have got the decision

Nice summary...you spot on, Tim instead of Kostya comes to mind now. What he achieves in the coming years will be his legacy

@@wassim9763 I thought Tim did the quality work he landed more effective punches. Compubox had Tim winning 7 rounds even the last round

@@eblount55 audience and viewers are important

I think shawn porter said it best (or maybe it was chris algieri) from a business standpoint, they couldn't afford to end the fight early bc it was on prime ppv or something

@@carlloren5499 Both of you are probably right... Had it not been Amazons first PPV then the doctor may well have made the decision to stop it himself HOWEVER... If a fighter complains about being unable to see properly & is clearly injured or hindered in some way then the doctor is DUTY BOUND to stop the fight. Tim was too proud to do that & it was on his head trainer to step-up.

Only the doctor can stop the fight otherwise it's a TKO not a no contest

​@shanemontgomery2416 Yes but you can help the Dr make a decision to stop it by saying that he can't see

@@carlloren5499i agree with that too, but in that case they should retroactive call it a no contest

in bullshit fights, when someone beaten with no chance rematch happen, but in real fight when cut change everything and Tim was champion, that no happen, what a shame..

So Tim's team wanted Fundora to be the first brother / sister champion? Tim's team should have pleaded to stop the fight. They did not and in fact when given the opportunity they dismissed the doctor saying Tim was ok

Who's corrupt? Tim's team for not pleading to stop the fight

The version of fedura that was shown that night would be just as improved as well don’t forget if he masters his distance then he will only make it much harder for tzu next round. Fedura took on 10days notice while tzu was in training camp for months

​@@urielcalderon9639bro, were you watching the first 2 and half rounds, when Tim had 2 eyes? Tim totally out classed the kid 😅 the cut saved Fendora from a KO.

@@choc0077 you do know that 2 rounds of a fight are just TWO rounds of a fight 🤣 which is why there are 12 rounds. To say that was prediction to how the whole fight plays out is illogical and historically refutable for example manny pacquio always has terrible first rounds and his multiple weight champ

@@urielcalderon9639 True. But if Tszyu isn't burdened with having to wipe blood from his eyes the entire fight because he can't see through the river running down his face. He can focus on boxing. I don't care who you are. You lose that much blood in that short amount of time you aren't going to be functioning very well. And you damn sure won't be flighting your sharpest fight. Just because fundora took the fight on 10 days notice doesn't mean he was sitting on the couch watching movies. He's a professional boxer. As a boxer I will tell you that the only difference between having a fight scheduled and not is the game plan. You still train whether or not you have a scheduled bout. Tim only had 10 days as well, That's where Tszyu was at the disadvantage. He was training for months to fight a COMPLETELY different style boxer. Thurman and fundora aren't anywhere near similar boxers, and he's a southpaw who occasionally switches his stance. Tszyu had to change everything strategically in the last 10 days after prepping for two and a half months to fight a particular boxing style. Think as if you were studying for a test and at the last minute they said they were changing the test to a totally different subject that you knew nothing about, but you have one day to study for this new test that you weren't expecting after studying the last 2 weeks for the test you thought you were gonna take. Sure fundora will bring a better game. He's a good boxer who is very tricky. But Tszyu nearly beat him anyway while fighting blind and pawing at his face the entire night.

@@urielcalderon9639 no shit. There are levels in boxing, and it was showing, Tim was hitting him whenever he wanted. I actually felt sorry for Fendora, no cut, Tim was on his way to a ko. To fight on was stupidity, but to lose by a point fighting blind, come on man, get serious.

I know right

Yep! He broke his nose lol. It would have ended really bad for him

He was already well prepared for a fight , what are you talking about ?

Well tim shouldn't fight someone coming off a knockout loss and then still get outjabbed the whole fight embarrassing

Tim bumzu a bum cry more 🤣😂😂😅😂🤣

Tank and haney are far superior than dosser tim bumzu 😂😂😂😂😂

Another bum like Tim 😂😂😂😂

@@Ju-kv2xi zinger!

@@tubes-lut bumzoo mush 🤣

@@tubes-lut Nikita a bum just like Tim and his dad FFS 🤣😂😂

Tim bumzu a flatfooted dosser 🤣😂😂

If anybody robbed Tszyu it was his head trainer for not stepping up & getting the fight stopped before 4 completed rounds. It's on him because his fighter was too proud to complain about being unable to see properly. Fundora clearly won on the scorecards (lost the first 2 then beat a blind man for at least 8 of 10 rounds) & wasn't at fault for the cut as his elbow was in a natural position. Circumstantial win for Fundora but never a robbery.

@@The_Hater_AKA_Truth_Teller big guy just got punched aaaalllll night

Was he blinded?

Fundora got his injuries through being deliberately punched in the face, not from an accidental elbow that took his vision away. You win a fight by landing big punches, that’s what Tim was doing until he coped the elbow.

Ive ran a cross country marathon with the same blood nose. As long as blood is not being swallowed then its ok but not great. Tim was blinded in one eye and blurry in the other. You go and try punch a ball with one eye closed

yeah he didn't fight like tim after the cut .If you watch any of Tim fight he comes on after 6 . He just wasn't throwing i knew he was seriously affected

Exactly right. To be a longstanding champ u have to be smart too. Lets see if his team wises up after putting their fighter at huge physical risk, loss of world title and a 15 million dollar payday with Crawford.

Delete this comment. This is a disgrace to even suggest Fundora is a dirty fighter. He is a honest all around great human. Tim charged Fundora and ran his head into the elbow. Fundora's elbow is clearly close to his body in defense and defense only. It's sad that the fans are trying to discredit Fundora's character

Tszyu wins the rematch, trust me buddy don’t stress for to much longer. Tszyu’s corner are the only reason fundora had the chance to win that fight. Before the cut no chance, after the cut the fight should have been stopped, there is no doubt in my mind if tszyu was American the ref would of called it himself at the end of the third round. It’s a world sport that america wants to own and they do everything they can to keep the belts among their own athletes.

Fundora gets to fight a unification bout after being knocked out so hard he forgot what planet he was on. Then Spence who lost his last fight is in the ring to call out the winner like that makes any sense at all, and to top it all off Crawford becomes the mandatory for a belt in a weight class who he has never fought at. The logic is mind blowing.

​@bentorresan9269 totaly agree, a stitch up from the get go,,, I don't even believe the other sucker thurman is injured , he pulled a shifty,, he's been doing it his whole career, he is their stitch up guy they go to when they need to try the upset,,, go watch some videos on how many times this guy has pulled out of fights before, all questionable,,, he even put up a video while hospital supposedly just before his operation,,, except his name tag says visitor, not patient,,, anyway not to worry , Tims the real winner here, the world now know who is is and wants more, alot more. So they can bag his corner all they like, I think they did the right thing, you can't buy this sort of support and great press he is now getting. Fundora should get into making tarpaulins, because he will be spending a lot of time with canvas in the near future. So will these othe bums,,,tim didn't just win the first 2 rounds, he destroyed fundora on 12 days notice,,, and how long did it take to find a 6.6 south paw that faught like him I wonder? Probably lucky if he got 5-6 days in when he should of been resting. Anyway I could go on and on with many other points but we all get it. Cheers

Crawford is the mandatory at any division at 154, because he is undisputed at 147, so he is the number one contender for any division he steps in, WBO, WBC and IBF he is the number one in any of these at 154, but he will get treated the same as at 147 nobody really wants that smoke, and I mean nobody, maybe Boots but he gotta come to 154 to get it
