Russian cutman Dmitry Luchnikov, in a conversation with , criticized the actions of his colleague, who was in the corner of Timofey Tszyu in the fight with American Sebastian Fundora.
On Saturday in Las Vegas, Tszyu lost by split decision to the 197-centimeter Fundora, suffering the first defeat of his career. At the start of the fight, Tszyu received a serious cut. At stake in the fight was Tim’s WBO belt and the vacant WBC junior middleweight title. Tszyu boxed in the United States for the second time in his career; before that, all fights took place in Australia.
“Cutman won’t win the fight, he’s not a fighter, but he can definitely help with that or vice versa.” Speaking specifically about the battle, there are a few comments. The dissection is quite functional, in my career there were fights where there were six similar ones in the same place, but with a different outcome (Nuzhnenko-Garcia). The main problem is blood in the eyes, which makes it difficult to see and slows down the boxer. There is not enough cotton on the stick to absorb the required amount of medicine (this is easy to notice), nor has the specialist heard of a certain type of pressure; a large vessel is clearly damaged here. You can use a combination with cold, as well as a combination of petroleum jelly at different temperatures. The specialist in the opposite corner was really up for the challenges and quickly tended to his injuries. In my opinion, there was an inexperienced person around. And Timofey lost what he worked so long and hard for.
How he got stuck in such a big fight and with such budgets is beyond me. I’ve seen this happen when friends or guys “who knew a good joke” were cornered, but incompetence in such areas is costly. Sometimes careers. And a good specialist will always give “one more round” or two in such cases,” Luchnikov told .
