That was the bloodiest fight I've ever watched

Definitely check the him vs Lubin next. Crazy action packed
the fact that fundora doesnt have a fight scheduled yet...he absorbed alot of punishment..his corner was working on him for a minute in that tszyu fight only for him to be rising off his stool and dude starts bleeding from his nose and mouth instantly without getting punched :heh:...ridiculously bloody fight

I don't even think Spence can beat Fundora at this point. He's accumulated a lot of damage inside but especially outside the ring

His punch resistance could really be shot

This is my thought process with the Spence-Fundora fight

If there is a belt holder than Spence can possibly beat, it's Fundora lol. Style-wise, Fundora is the perfect matchup for Spence. He is tall as hell which Spence can abuse because he's a great body puncher. Fundora also doesn't have that much punching power, so Spence can easily go inside without too much worry

I personally think Spence has a chance to win this one

People talk more about Lewis-Vitali and Joshua-Wlad because they were bigger fights/names, but Liakhovich-Brewster is clearly the best HW fight of the 21st century to me. Much more consistent action, and not nearly as sloppy as Lewis-Vitali.

Unfortunately it ruined Brewster. He took a lot of punishment in general, and he suffered a detached retina in addition to the 10000 right hooks to the body.

they got both ruined...liakhovich punch resistance started in the yellow after that fight and it got worse

If he boxes the way he did in the Tsyzu fight I don’t think Errol can beat him tbh

He was jabbing Tim at will, and ik the gash on his head played a factor but I think if he fights behind his Jab, Errol is gonna take much punishment tryna walk thru that

You right, you got a point. If Tim Tszyu couldn't get past Fundora's jab, neither would Spence
