    Honestly I'll happily pay Ppv for this.

    I have no issues paying to see the champion unifying, of facing his top contender.

    People seem happy enough to pay for Haney v Garcia, but not this. Blows my mind.

    Let's hope the winner unifies with that new WBA guy.

    ^Yeah but there's a difference there. Tszyu and Fundora aren't known. Haney and particularly Garcia are known and have bigger fan bases.

    This is a good fight but as a Tszyu fan I have some concern as a guy with Fundora’s dimensions it is best to have a full camp preparing for him. Anyway that is why I love Tim Tszyu he is a true warrior and he doesn’t care he just wants to fight.

    But to the individual boxing fan commenting on this thread that shouldn't matter.

    This will be a better fight, between higher ranked fighters, and will be a unification.

    Anyone who feels Haney v Garcia should be PPV but this shouldn't be, isn't a boxing fan imo.

    Did anyone pick Thurman? The overwhelming sentiment was that the Thurman fight was a huge mismatch and shouldn't be sanctioned.

    I didn't think anyone picked Thurman out of every thread I read. That fight was a ridiculous mismatch.

    This fight is quality and an actual test for Zoo.

    It was more likely picking Thurman out of hope as they do not like Tszyu

    **** thurman he wasted his career and hasn't done anything in years. I usually support American fighters but not in this case. With that said I'm supporting fundora.

    You didn’t even know that Fundora was preparing for a fight on the undercard. You must be such a big fan of his lol.
