Australian boxer Tim Tszyu revealed that one of the key factors in his defeat to American Sebastian Fundora was a head clash causing a severe cut on his forehead.
After 12 rounds, the judges awarded Fundora the victory by split decision.
My eyesight was gone. Literally couldn’t see, I had to wipe my eyes non-stop. Physically I still felt alright… you’re fighting with blurry vision. It’s not ideal, especially with Fundora.
