Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

That is a narrative that you have chosen, it was idiots like buster and haircut boy that had the Aussie forum closed that is why they have all been banned and I am still here. I have spoken the truth about Aussie boxing for years I call it like I see it and some times that riles up fan boys. You make a fool of yourself all the time and are always back tracking on your BS I called out team Horn on their BS years ago which you didn't like so you decided to start a beef with me but you didn't realize I know way more about this game then you ever will party boy.

Both Tszyu and Hogan looked good at the weigh in we have a fight gentlemen

 

This is another great test for Timmy T.

I wouldn't sleep on the Irishman. Nothing Tim does will having him worried going into the fight.
This is a young, prospect with plenty of pressure and eyes on him, not an established champ
He didn't take a bad beating against Charlo, he was stopped on his feet. This time he is at his preferred weight and had plenty of time to prepare.

At the same time he isn't a hard puncher, nor does he have a great offensive ability. Even if Timbo has a hard time figuring him out he will likely get the better end of a close decision.
If he doesn't, oh well he wasn't ready yet and I dare say he won't take a career shortening hiding from the likes of Dennis.

 

* Demsey Mckean vs Toa Leutele May 15. Unlike the Aus SMW division avoiding each other lets hope Goodall , Mckean and Huni can rumble .
* Tszyu says difficult making weight and inevitable move to MW and SMW and dream fight is Golovkin .

 

Cry some more old man.

 

Good win for Tim Tszyu tonight he is the real deal he punished Hogan the kid will win a world title before its all over. He reminded me a bit of GGG in there tonight.

 

he certainly made a good fighter look ordinary. still has to prove himself vs higher calibre. he's world class now but is he truly exceptional? He needs a derevyanchenko litmus test, then I'll be sold

 

Good win by Timmy. I think Dennis was damaged goods going in but The Tool Train did what he was supposed to do.

He's the best we've got currently. It's been a fun journey so far & the best is yet to come.

I reckon Michael Zerafa will be next. Covid-19 is still locking everything down & there would be significant logistical problems associated with bringing fighters in from overseas.

Luved Wade Ryan's win. He had to work for it. Commiserations to the other fellow who shouldn't have had the plug pulled on him with 30 seconds to go. He'll become a better fighter for that experience. Nice to see Wade Ryan score a big win as the main support on a big local show.

Paul Fleming looked classy. Could it be that he's finally ready to do something on a grander scale? Tyson Lantry was very gritty & gave a good account of himself in defeat, I thought.

Sakio had a bit too much for Sam to take the series decider. We won't see him in with Mateo Tapia though given they are both from the same gym. As to the latter, good win by the young bloke stopping a fighter he had previously decisioned.

 

I agree I think that Zerafa will be next due to the current climate but its a good fight that Tszyu should win Zerafa has a good chin and is tough and they can definitely sell the fight. Zerafa could actually give Tszyu a tougher fight than Hogan and Horn as Zerafa is still under 30 and in his prime he will be hungry for the win and guys like that can be more dangerous.

 

I think Tszyu v Zerafa is a terrific local fight. The guys with histories of performing well at a higher weight division have done better against Junior than most of his other opponents. Blokes like Wade Ryan & Dwight Ritchie (RIP) were able to last the distance & win some rounds.

Zerafa has those long arms that enable him to box from the outside & he's a lot more confident these days than the guy who travelled overseas to fight Kell Brook. Good fight I reckon. Looking forward to it next up.

 

Could the stripperboi be Tszyu the youngers Phillips?

Doubt it but he will be a different fight to his last couple.

 

Agreed Zerafa is a big guy for 154 which will help him against Tszyu. Zerafa is a bigger name than Hogan so I think there will be a lot of hype and build up. Put Gallen on the undercard and you have the recipe for a big PPV fight LOL.

 

They will be injecting Sonny Bill into a card or two very soon I'd say

 

Wade Ryan vs the winner of Mahoney-George.

What do the powers that be of the SM Memorial thread think?

 

It would be an entertaining fight for the next under card of Tim Tszyu
