This is my big prediction. I under estimated Tszyu when he went pro I thought he was just piggy backing off his old man but he has improved and become an elite fighter IMO one of the best Australia has seen in a very long time. By the end of the year Tszyu is going to be the biggest pay day at 154 for Jermell Charlo he might even come to Australia for a big stadium PPV fight. Tszyu is getting better with every fight and he will match Charlo for speed and power. It will be a great fight that I think will happen maybe late this year or early 2022.
he is far from an elite fighter lol, he is a work in progress who hasnt moved yet from facing domestic opposition, fighting charlo this year would be an astronomical leap in class when he has yet to face a top 30 fighter. and yes, he is piggybacking his dad fame, without his last name he would be just another oceania prospect.
Honestly that's not really saying much. Old man Tyzu was good during his era, but in the grand scheme of things he is quite overrated. We learned alot more about him from his losses then we ever did from any of his wins, and getting manhandled by an utter bafoon like Ricky Hatton takes away a great deal of his luster. As for Jr....I'm glad he has fans like you to support him, but I warn you: Charo is not the tree he wants to go barking up if he intends to stay relevant He would be quickly disposed of and sent packing to live out the rest of his career fighting exhibitions against cigarette smoking kangaroos for children's entertainment
Tim Tsyzu is not even a top 10 fighter at 154 and you want him to fight the champion.. Elite based off what exactly?? Do you not care for him did you not see what happened to Lubin.. Charlo would feast on an inexperienced guy like that.
Nah i think Jermell will probably wreck him at any point in their careers. And the hogan fight isnt going to show us much either. Hopefully after this fight with the hawkster, he steps up his competition that way i can make a better assesment of how good he can be. But i say hes got potential to be good.
If Hatton was an utter bufoon who commands no respect, I would love to see your 140 lb rankings from that era.
Tyszu was a shell of the fighter he once was v Hatton, old and a lay off due to injury, he couldn’t keep the younger man off him who was on fire that night. He chinned sharmba Mitchell easy enough prior to Hatton, but he was scared stiff of Tsyzu and Tsyzu could still punch.
I think the prediction is a little premature. However, in Tszyu's last handful of fights I have seen a marked improvement in his skill set and demeanour. He certainly has the chance to become an elite guy but he has a little way to go yet. I have little doubt he can win a belt though.
If he is so great then why does Mayweather get hardly any credit today for knocking him out in an exciting fight when he was still undefeated?
Because there are a lot of idiots who refuse to give Mayweather credit for anything there are always excuses.
If Tim can beat Hogan convincingly then that is a great win IMO. Tim looks class but is he a little small? maybe he needs to wait until Charlo leaves and all the 147lbers all move up I do expect Tim to be a champ one day, but Charlo is a beast. Would be hard to beat him.
I said it was a big prediction. I am calling him elite based on the eye test. It is a prediction by me, not a fact.
Fair enough. If you give Mayweather credit for the win then I shall give Hatton credit as a real fighter
I get that you think he's a good fighter but future biggest ppv draw at 154? Fight with Charlo in australia? Come on now
