    I think Spencer is better than Zerafa and a smart move from Tszyu’s team to rebuild.

    Not even close, he's terrible and a featherfisted bore.

    Well Tim is coming off a brutal loss I think it’s a good opponent all things considered.

    Hate to admit but no idea who Spencer is.

    He can’t afford to go too deep right now. Tszyu has it in him to get back to the top at 154 but another loss so soon ends him.

    He definitely needs a confidence builder. But in no way does a win over Spencer even get him ready for a guy like Ramos or Zayas, much less a Crawford or Ortiz. He needs another tune up after this.

    100% correct mate. It’s going to be a slow rebuild and it will need to be flawless.

    It’s absolutely doable but Tszyu has a very narrow path now.

    If Thurman beats Jarvis in a few weeks and Tszyu beats Spencer I think that we will likely see Tszyu v Thurman next.

    I don't know exactly why but this fight is hilarious to me.

    I guess both guys have really let down the fan bases they cultivated.

    Tszyu didn't let his Aussie fans down we are proud of his efforts and appreciate his attitude of wanting to fight anyone.

    I don't know what Zoo does tbh.

    He's been dominated by two guys who are arguably not even in the top 2 of the division.

    Even Buhachuck probably stops him at this stage.

    He could probably do with fighting Jesus Ramos, and if he isn't ready for a lower top ten guy then he really needs to go back to the drawing board.

    Spencer is the right opponent for Tszyu rat this moment but he would have been even more so last October. I will never be able to explain why, after the 1st loss in his career against Fundora, Tszyu's team agreed to an opponent like Murtazaliev, and in fact it was a nightmare night for Tim. I hope that Kostya's son can recover and return as world champion because he is a very good boxer but comes from a horrible 2024 (in a sporting sense)

    Fair enough. Fighting a mini-Kovalev after taking a loss to Fundora seems foolish though.
