We are very lucky to have such a humble good man representing Australia let’s go Tim 🇦🇺

[@restoreupscale1521]

Tim so far looks like a straight shooter. That's what we need in modern boxing. Too bad the bosses favour the ducks.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

I really like Tim so far, just refreshing to see boxers who want to fight and not mess around.

[@bradmodd7856]

Money talks...the bigger the purse the more slippery the business gets

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@bradmodd7856 No doubt!

[@GokuBoxingTV]

Flavoritism absolutely does happen in boxing. Great points made here.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Appreciate that Goku!

[@JinStaffy]

The American fans will finally see how elite of a fighter Tim Tszyu is by brutally KO Fundora. Although Tim is the favourite but I still feel they're all underestimating him. KO between 5-7. Let's give Tim the first 4 rounds to stimulate his underrated Ring IQ

[@bhongonkumanda7630]

Congratulations to Fundora

[@GreenDistantStar]

It's going to be fun watching Fundora try to engage Tszyu in a body-shot contest. No one at 154lbs can do that with Tszyu and not come off 2nd best. Stoppage by rib-break no later than round 6.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

At his height as well Fundora can't carry ANY excess fat to protect his midsection either.

[@GreenDistantStar]

@@BrendanOnBoxing it's not like Fundora has more mass, he does not, just height and reach. Tim is thicker through his body, and walks in the ring at 171lbs. Fundora is in for a shock, watch Willard vs Dempsey 😬

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@GreenDistantStar Agreed. I looked that fight up and I agree, IDK why Fundora doesn't gain some mass and go up to a bigger weight tnh

[@douglasguiotto521]

Brendan on point ! 💯 And guess what ? Just look at the out come of the fight !! Hmmn !

[@bradmodd7856]

A lot of punches, with good aim and a good uppercut are coming Tim's way....but Tim is like a locksmith, working away...until he cracks his opponent

[@JoelLoveyouKunbieyNogger]

Thanks for the commentaries...Sir

Great video .... keep up the good work

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Thanks Cameron!

[@Solstice2023]

I didn’t notice either situations until you mentioned thanks

[@oedrogonzalez7056]

I pick tim tszyu , tim tszyu is relentless, could punch and has endurance but he's got to stay close tim by tko

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Tim on the inside will be devastating imo

[@Michael_Page]

Spot on. If Fundora makes it to the final bell, he'll all but certainly get his hand raised. He throws a lot of punches and he's the fighter PBC/WBC have a closer relationship with.

[@jedclampett6466]

Prophetic....

[@user-fj3wd6tx4b]

We are on the last stretch now...Everyone is looking forward to see both fighters in the room for the best bell to sound for the game proper to start... Reckoning time has come...can't wait.....now....cheers...

[@markcourtney2205]

Tim needs a knockout and I think he will get it..should be a entertaining fight.Tim by way of KO in the 5th.

[@timp1390]

I think the belt placement is just trying to hype up the fight

[@taraishot100]

Tim is of Russian heritage to I think

[@davidsciberras8942]

Congratulations to the underdog well deserved 12 days notice.

Great insight

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

He's not mexican but from a Cuban Father and fights out of Coachella, CA.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

I believe his mom is Mexican no?

[@indio1320021]

@BrendanOnBoxing I don't know, but you're doing a good job, keep it up. good point of view. He is from Florida. If his mother is Hispanic and lived in Florida, she is most likely Caribbean, Central or South American.

[@cholonoir9112]

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@indio1320021 Thanks man I appreciate that! 🥊🥊

[@BottleBri]

WBC = Worst Boxing Corruption. Good for Tim for pointing out the obvious favouritism of Fundora. You can bet the judges, at least one or two will be well paid to favour Fundora in a points decision. It’s scandalous how they favour certain fighters they like.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

What I couldn't understand was how Rolly was up on 1 scorecard against Pitbull at the time he got KO'd?

[@BottleBri]

@@BrendanOnBoxing that’s crazy!

[@DUCATIIVERSOL]

I can't lie after Rebeisy Ramirez lost to Espinoza aka Goliath. these major height difference matches gives me PTSD I lost 10k.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that, I hope you win something this weekend if you have money riding on it.

[@kenwahldhlamini8102]

But fundora has a horrible chin

[@redgear4566]

Hey bro. I’ve lost 18k before. Lucky it was just money I won over time from betting itself. Got to learn from these moments. Betting that big is gonna give us white hairs. Overall right now I’m up 5k in a span of 4 months

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@redgear4566 Tbf that's still pretty nice 💰💰💰

[@JoelLoveyouKunbieyNogger]

Well....Am a truly Bougainvillian Strong supporter of the champ from the Land Down Under....Tim to have a victory a great victory over Pandora......

[@camwells9726]

Basic physics to me says this guy is way to light for his height and has to be a physical weakness if hit hard to mid section and that happens to be a bit of a strength to Tim .

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

That's what I figured too. Would be interesting to see how the fight plays out without the cut.

[@camwells9726]

@@BrendanOnBoxing yeah was an interesting set of events , Tim looked on track early , had his range sorted out , the right was landing and busted his nose very quickly, then the cut happened which seemed to change everything, but credit to fundora for taking his opportunity after that all the same

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@camwells9726 100% I thought Tim looked good but Fundora took his chance and now will make $$$ for his next fight even if he loses.

[@camwells9726]

@@BrendanOnBoxing was interested to see stitch Durans comments, he thinks Tim’s team badly let him down , Firstly with not protesting their fighter can’t see and is in danger , he thinks it should have been a no contest , and secondly they handled the cut all wrong in their treatment of it . Now we have Tim’s manager protesting they had a verbal agreement on a rematch , which means nothing , Tim’s a good kid but he needs to get a better team around him it seems

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@camwells9726 That's shocking if true, can't believe they only accepted a verbal agreement, should have known verbal agreements don't always mean much in boxing, I think you might be right about the team tbh

[@dlmullins9054]

Tszyu seems to have gotten the big head since coming to America. He better not be looking past Fundora. It's not just about his height. He can box and he has plenty of power. Tszyu may have bitten off more than he can chew. If it does go to the cards, Fundora wins. Talk is cheap and Fundora is hungry now. He wants to show his loss was indeed a fluke. Tim is a good fighter, but he better be on point if he expects a win. It won't be easy. Picking Fundora in a minor upset. I like his confidence and the height does mean something.

[@senseiSinclair]

So is Tim hungry to prove himself and cement his own legacy. Fundora is going to get beaten down in the later rounds.

[@a.s.2426]

Good observations. However, I don’t readily see what financial interest the WBC has in the fight such that they could create any meaningful sway over how the fight is judged. One of the promoters or perhaps the network, I could see.

Should never let it go to the judges boxing is dirty asf Zoo will end fight under 3 and call out EVERYONE then watch who's who 🦆🦆🦆🦆

[@stevo54838]

I think so too.

[@doriankeating1963]

Looks like we were completely on the money Brendan , pretty much everything we said was wrong with this fight, and everytning that was susspect came into play, the only thing we didnt see was the elbow,,, and yes people are saying tim ducked into it, but i say the elbow was not in the tucked position that it would of been in if fundora was covering up,, and thats exactly what he was doing as he was being obliterated,,, he would know being that tall that a 178cm head would fit snug into an elbow from a 198cm boxer, expecially if that very boxer was getting inside at will and making a mess of your undeserved chance at 2 belts vcoming off a ko loss and being thrown in as a sub , then lifting the stakes only for the champ, as fundora had nothing to offer, zero, zilch,,,and then at the post press try and duck a rematch after you were given the chance of a lifetime. Liked him before this fight, but have found fu dora and his team to be very deceptive, and lack integrity on all levels. The ink wont dry on the belts before he either loses them or has them stripped for ducking. Oh and when does 100 halfbaked jabs beat 70 power punches from the champ? In vegas ,,, the place where 1000 punches from guy called fenech can draw with a guy Azuma who threw 480 less and was saved by the bell. Oh and Don king rules the roost. We should have put money on our predictions with all the variables Brendan, we may have got a great return.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Tim got cut at the worse possible time in the fight and unfortunately for him the fight wasn't stopped early which would resulted in retaining his title via no contest. This card had some strange score cards, such as Rolly being up vs Pitbull at the time he was KO'd! Thanks again for the comment!

[@billyburroo]

that's the closest fundora will get to the belt it will not go points

[@ariellaurenteabaquita]

tim has already lost...smells like a setup when thurman pulled out.

[@nevillemanno4912]

So you mean it will be rigged, like so many other fights?

[@doriankeating1963]

Yep I smell a rat here too.

[@rowanbulldog6682]

What are you talking about? I thought you said Tim was going to mop the floor with him. Now you’re worried about points, You better be more worried about the knockout

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

I still think Tim is going to win by KO 100%, my point was more he shouldn't let the fight go to the judges, which I don't think he will! 🥊🥊

[@glenndavis479]

The WBO AND the WBC both contrived this outcome , Fundora shouldn't even have been fighting Bohachuk for the WBC interim and the person that should have been they kept on call from day 1 and that's Mendoza. Look at the timeline...we go from a non title fight with 2 ducks by Lubin & Thurman then the WBC switch out Fundora for a replacement then the WBO mandate the winner Z vs F to fight Crawford so if Tim can't get Bud to fight come July (because it's only negotiations at the moment) and wants to keep fighting and takes a fight in between like Spence then he has to drop the WBO to do it. So really it's not just the WBC favouring Fundora it's both of the governing bodies conspiring against TIM and helping Bud out at the same time. This is just plain and simple fuckery that has become an every day occurrence in American boxing to make the most money. Tim's gonna beat Fundora to a pulp and lose out on the back end because Bud wont be agreeing to a July fight but rather later in the year , you watch and see.

[@LLJR]

I think Isreal Madrimov is the best 154 pound Champ

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Might be now!

100% break down brother Tim tyzu all the way hands down before 7 rounds

Well before :)

Appreciate you brother, sadly Tim didn't win but I also thought he was gonna stop Fundora.

[@hanoitripper1809]

Hope Tim wins 🇦🇺 , but feel bad for Fundora he seems a nice dude but without killer instinct Tim has. Gd info about the WBC belt

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Appreciate the comment, I'm sorry Tim didn't get the W but hopefully we get a rematch. Fundora did do well also, way better outside boxing than I expected.

[@StoneyPaBoxing]

It’s Fundoras interim belt brother

[@FZ-TAS]

The belt was vacant and he was fighting for it ,so there is no ifs or buts .

[@drummersagainstitk]

This fight will be razor thin close.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Interesting, I favor Tim by KO but you think Fundora is gonna have a real shot at winning?

[@drummersagainstitk]

@@BrendanOnBoxing Whomever has the best (most effective!) JAB will be in a great position to win by decision. If I was coaching Fondora I'd have him jabbing at long range UNTIL HIS ARM FELL OFF! 12rds of vicious, accurate jabbing will be the key....IMO...Cont Success to you.

[@williamallen7386]

​@drummersagainstitk This is gonna be a nightmare for Tszyu. The fix is in, and if it goes to the "judges" wink wink, Tim gets robbed. I have no doubt that Thurman was always gonna pull out last minute, and Fundora has been training for Tszyu since day one. Fundora is usually an inside fighter, but he could very well just win this fight with his jab. So we go from a trash exhibition fight with Thurman to a unified championship with the winner fighting Crawford. But hold the phone!!! Now the winner may get Haymon's prize duck Spence, lol. The fix is in.

[@drummersagainstitk]

@@williamallen7386 True! Boxing is insane. Prize duck or not Spence is damaged goods. Not gonna happen. The "fix" of weird judging isn't in BECAUSE Vegas is afraid of Saudi Arabia getting major fights in the future. Moretti etc. will be judging. This fight will go split dec. either way... IMO

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

@@drummersagainstitkI agree 100% Fundora needs to JAB JAB JAB like Wlad K imo. Appreciate the comments as always!

Your subconscious bias explanation done perfectly !

🤣🤣🤣

[@benjamingodfrey2244]

Go Aussie ,

[@bigmediabuzz]

Where to start with this one? When you say the belt should’ve been in the middle, where exactly? Around the Ring announcers neck? It’s simple optics. And before you make a video learn how to say both guys names that are fighting. In the end, you don’t do Boxing any favours making videos like this with crazy insinuations. If you wanna be a fan, be a fan, but don’t pretend to be a News guy and act like a fan.

[@BrendanOnBoxing]

Thanks for the comment! A table/stand in front of the podium would have been the natural place for the vacant belt as happens in the UFC with vacant titles.

[@daeH_11]

They rigged it as well.

[@willromez]

Lol wdym rigged? Tim was just unfortunate to have suffered a cut that blinded him for most of the fight, the fault lies on his team for having a shitty cutman not even stitching his cut and letting him continue to fight instead of finding a doctor
