He's not allowed to spare that's the issue, he can't be expected to go into a big fight under prepared.
Ortiz is considered a big fight for an accomplished fighter like Tszyu? I thought Ortiz was still prospect level, or at best unproven contender? I thought Tszyu was a fearless warrior who would fight anyone?
I don't think Tim had a choice, it was the doctors that canned it..... not sure why they just wouldnt put in back a month
I don't need a medical background to know that deep cuts heal in a matter of weeks. Have you ever had stitches before, I have, and so has my son, and my brother. And it did not take four months to heal. You get the stitches removed after a week once the cut is healed.
I think there is more to this. I don't recall a fighter pulling out of a fight because he suffered a cut several months before a fight. Cuts don't take that long to heal. A broken arm takes 1 month to 3 months to heal. A cut takes weeks. My guess is that either Tszyu doesn't feel confident in fighting Ortiz, or Uncle Haymon is once again playing chess and advising Tszyu to stand down for some in house fight. Possibly the winner of Fundora-Spence.
What a stupid fight. Hope this is just Ryan keeping his name in the news and theres nothing more to it.
I wonder why the hate for Tim Tsyzu ? Could it be jealousy the haters are mostly Floyd/Canelo addicts You know the casual trolls lol
If only you were smart enough to realize for boxing purposes they take much longer to heal so as they will stand up to being punched without reopening. Your naivety is truly bewildering.
