    I was amazed at how, despite being blinded by blood and eating numerous jabs he couldn't see coming, Tim Tszyu kept on trying to win. Many fighters would have quit.

    I hope he finds a better cutman. He was doing very well before the cut.

    He'll be back, and will win another world title, wait and see!

    Tremendously tough fighter. After the cut there was a point where Fundora landed some left hands that seemed to hurt him and I figured it was only a matter of time before he'd be stopped, but no he survived to the final bell even with that nasty cut painting his face and the canvas red

    I have more respect for Tsyzu now than I did before. He fought well with the blood getting into his eyes, and kept trying to land that big punch.

    Tim showed a lot of heart and grit while being blinded from the cut. He’ll bounce back. Hopefully he gets a rematch.

    Tim Tszyu is the goods. This is shaping up to be another era of very good JMW where all the guys fight each other also.

    Fundora has Tim's number. Can't see Tim beating a disciplined Fundora.

    Result sucks but it wasn't Fundoras fault. This result would be less crappy if there's a rematch. Spence does not deserve another title fight.

    He did more than survive, he arguably won the fight. He was unlucky tonight.

    Pbc and Mexican tv had him winning. I didn't score it myself.

    Yeah, considering it happened at the end of the 2nd round, he could have said “I can’t see” and it would have been called a NC, but he chose to keep fighting. Gotta respect that for real.

    Props to Tim for continuing to fight but I didn't see him sell out to won. He didn't want to end up unconscious on the canvas...

    I think it would have been a different fight without the cut. I'd love to see a rematch.
