I kind of thought that it was too soon for him to come back after such a nasty gash.
Virgil needs to stay active and fight anyone. That is why you see a lot of no hopers in some of the great fighters from back in the day, they stayed active so they can stay sharp.CPNUTKnockoutFreshMart likes this.

Yet you see fans keep suggesting, "Oh, fight the winner of so and so fight..." as if the winner would be ready in a week for his next fight.
Can we at least suggest to fighter A or B who is already more than 6 months off since his last fight take interim fight while waiting?
Point is, not only are we talking about another 6 months minimum of waiting, but all sorts of things can happen in a day, week, month like injuries
inside or outside of the ring, personal issues, etc.Last edited by brettWall; 05-31-2024, 04:29 PM.CPNUTKnockoutFreshMart likes this.

Jermell Charlo is waiting for the winner of Madrimov/Crawford fight doe. And the fight is still 2 months away. Then the winner would have to take a rest for at least another six months. And Charlo was last seen in the ring 9 months since. Eight more months of waiting if you're lucky.

I can understand the reasoning my thing is I'm not sure why it was even announced to begin with cuz it didnt make sense for Tszyu lol, 1st thing came to mind was Aug? Really? that was a dangerous fight for Tim coming off that cut and really his performance altogether seems someone on his team studied Ortiz tapes a lil closer realized this and pulled the plug lol
Lets not forget Tim is also over 30 too while Ortiz still under 30 has good size and throws punches in bunches..another L so quickly would be very bad for Tim career
Love the fight just didnt seem to make good business sense for Tszyu in the 1st place
Vergil still needs to fight though be it 154 or 160 vs Lara or someone light, Idt Danny Garcia is interested at 154 maybe Castano where he been?Last edited by Realizniguhnit; 05-31-2024, 01:04 PM.BlackRobb likes this.

Give the guy some credit for fighting through all the blood. It's more than you can say for the large majority of fighters who get a bad cut and immediately say they cannot see to get the fight stopped. Tszyu is tough as nails and Fundora won his title through massive handicap of his opponent.shwaap likes this.
