Message: [QUOTE="Renegade, post: 3606007, member: 1928"] We'll agree to disagree, I think the first couple of rounds showed Tzuyu very much had a plan and it was working to a T. Look at the punches landed early on. It was only I think, round 8 or 9, that Fundora started winning that stat - by which point Tzuyu was wiping his eyes every 30 seconds. I think Crawford would be a very tough fight for him agreed but Crawford is next level. Like any fighter with a massive wingspan, wait for the jab and counter inside his reach. He was doing that well early on. He stopped doing that because he could no longer see properly. That's why he had to start eating more jabs because he had to wear some before he could counter. Because he had blood constantly in his eyes. I mean you just have to rewatch some of the later rounds (not having a go) to see Tzuyu wiping his eyes/brow every 30 seconds. It's not unreasonable to suggest that being more of an issue than a guy being 6'6 (and the cut being a result of an errant elbow, not a calculated shot that opened them clean). I'm no Tzuyu fanboy but early on he had Fundora, the cut changed everything. I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that if you look at the stats on punches thrown/landed and the early rounds belonging to Tzuyu. [/QUOTE]
