Serving as a replacement for injured Keith Thurman, Fundora will face junior middleweight titleholder Tim Tszyu in the lead bout of a March 30 pay-per-view card in Las Vegas.

Styles and attributes make fights. Anybody smelling a upset?

Yeah seems like they trying to Rob the belt from tszyu, bait and switch? I think tszyu can wear him down though probably. A come from behind stoppage, rake fundora, cash out at end of round 6 then bet tszyu.

If Tszyu doesn't work on his defense and ring movement then he will lose the fight against Fundora. Fundora has a way of jamming his opponents on the ropes and wearing them down with constant pressure. Tsyzu isn't known for his defense and has been known to take lots of shots. This will be a very interesting fight that can go either way.

Hmm...interesting. Any difference between Tszyu and Matias in terms of "taking lots of shots?"
Why is Matias' defense never brought up when most of his fights are almost non stop back and forth beatings?
Almost like a fight between punching bags going at it.

Fundora will be systematically broken down and beaten by the 6th to 8th round
He just won’t be able to absorb the body attack which will lead to him dropping his guard and keeping that chin out
Spectacular knockout
But I won’t say it’ll be easy , Tazoo will work for it hard

but Fundora believes he is in the right headspace for the upcoming challenge.

Wrong!
Fundora is being rushed into the hardest fight of his life against a beast.
While an upset is always possible, Fundora's headspace will be suspect at best after KO from Mendoza.
Fundora has not fought since.
Tszyu stayed active by beat down Mendoza.

There will be doubt and fear in Fundora's head and team Tszyu took this dangerous fight on 10 days notice because they want to capitalize on that.

Tszyu has good defence, better than Fundora's. And Tszyu will control the fight, he won't get backed into the ropes.

This is not a great fight fundora got cleaned up by mendoza who knew he had no power so what is Tszyu going to do

having a guy on the undercard for the same weight division as the main event as a back up is pretty genius, they should always do that. so many guys quit or fake injuries, fake mental health ect these days.
