    The fight was two rounds old when he got the cut. What are you talking about.

    he has cornermen who give him advice between rounds, its THEIR job to remind him to target the body.
    he needs a new corner if they didn't do that.

    They were too busy trying to plug the gaping hole in Tszyu's head with as much Vaseline as they could find. There didn't seem to be much coaching going on.

    no excuse.
    if they were going to send him back out there to fight after each break then they had to give him advice needed to win.
    takes 2 seconds before getting off his stool to instruct him to target the body.

    I didn’t say they had an excuse. I’m on record in here as saying his corner was terrible.

    He's a limited fighter.

    Well during this fight he certainly WAS a limited fighter.

    I can appreciate what you’re saying but that was his best option to win.

    staying outside of the pocket against a 6’6 dude who by far has the reach advantage = Loss.

    they should have called it a day in round 5 or 6. Due to lack of vision.
    His corner cost him.

    He was already being punished to the head with the 8 inch height disparity and insane reach of Fundora. He should've went broke to the body.

    The cut took Tsyzu out of his game. He did not handle it well. He looked like a dear caught in headlights as he came out for round three.

    The fight exposed Tszyu and his team. His cut man seemed to be doing nothing but slathering Vaseline on the cut. I saw no attempt by Tim or his corner at making any adjustments durring the fight.

    Tszyu has some talent and he certainly has heart.

    The fight though showed he and his team have some work to do if they are really going to be top level.

    That's the first fight I saw of Tim's. I am neither a fan nor a hater.

    I'm just saying what I saw.
