FightHype<\/a>, Fundora revealed that he fancies Tszyu to come out on top, believing that his recent hardships will prove to be less consequential than those of former unified welterweight champion Spence.<\/p>\n\u201cI think that it\u2019s an interesting fight. Tszyu has been losing, but at least he has been active, Spence hasn\u2019t been seen anywhere in boxing, in the ring.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know. I think losing to Crawford like that and then taking the layoff like that and then getting into a car accident, these things are bigger losses than the losses that Tsyzu had.<\/p>\n
\u201cI favour Tszyu in the fight. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Spence knocks him out, I mean Spence is still one of the top dogs, you can never take that away from him, but it\u2019s just too much of a layoff for anybody in anything. He just can\u2019t expect to come back into the ring and be that guy that he was before.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ahead of their battle, Tszyu has opted to once again switch trainers, ditching Pedro Diaz after just two fights and elevating Australian boxing legend Jeff Fenech to head coach for this must-win clash. Spence has also refreshed his team, now working with Ronnie Shields.<\/p>\n
The fight, set at a catchweight of 158lbs, takes place on Saturday, July 25<\/a>, and will be available to watch live on Amazon Prime Video PPV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In less than two months, Errol Spence Jr makes his ring return, heading to Tim Tszyu\u2019s backyard in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":592197,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-610145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/610145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=610145"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/610145\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/592197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=610145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=610145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=610145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
