    Got it even. Mendoza won the first half on my card, sans round 5, and Tsyzu got the back half, except 12. 7-5 either way might be a good score as well.

    Unbelievable chin kept Mendoza in game. He boxed very well to but if he had average chin .............

    Tim Tszyu:5,7,8,9,10,11.
    Brian Mendoza:1,2,3,4,6,12.

    114-114. Very weird twelfth from Tszyu.

    That's why Charlo didn't want none. Mendoza took some shot but is a real dude and didn't fold.
    Tszyu a different level of brutal, stilled all around just like I said his last fight.

    A rarity, we have identical scorecards.

    That Mendoza is a courageous ****er. Credit to him hope he gets another shot at some point. Held his own downunder as well during fight week

    Tszyu may beat Jermell Charlo but after watching him against Gausha and Mendoza I don't believe he would have beaten prime Charlo.

    Tim Tszyu is a very good fighter. That power is real. Very few guys in the division will be able to take it. He really sits down on his shots.

    Got Tim by two rounds.

    His lack of activity might cost him.

    I had it 8-4 Timmy.

    I think he punched Mendoza so many times in the 11th he had nothing left in the 12th. I think anything from 115-113 to 117-111 for Timmy are acceptable scorecards.

    A bit indulgent from Tszyu starting slow then switching right off for that last round.

    He can do that at home but they will bite him in the arse abroad.

    If it wasn't his home town, I'd say Tsyzu taking off the final round was a huge mistake.

    I have it 116-112 for Tszyu, although Mendoza won that last round.

    Mendoza's face tells the story of the fight. He's one tough man though, I hope to see him fight again soon.

    Not sold on Tsyzu as anything special. He's like a Canelo with worse defense and less skill.

    Mendoza has a helluva chin, he should've blitzed slow starting Tsyzu from round 1.
