    That was because she knew she wasn’t the hottest woman in the ring and she knew Tim knew it too

    Joey thinks he's so slick but he folded the first time he faced some adversity in the fight

    I don't get it. He's been active, fights all comers and is in exciting fights. Those people need to get their heads checked.

    All the fuss about judges etc. from Spencer was him knowing he needed every advantage, because he knew he was in too deep. His Dad probably drove it.

    Some folks just gotta find someone to hate I reckon. Of all folks though, I have no idea why Tim is one of them. There's plenty of genuinely hateable figures in boxing. Prolly a lot funner to hate too. But hey, whatever gets them outta bed I guess :lol:

    Is it because his last name sounds like zoo and they're afraid they'll be labeled Tszyuphiles if they like him, and some day they'll refer to themselves as such out of context and have a really awkward time explaining what they actually mean?

    It's that, isn't it.

    I don't hate Tim, MP. He seems like a generally respectful and likable guy. Rather, I've just always considered him grossly overrated by our friends down under. He's a good fighter but one who will invariably fall short against truly blue chip talent.

    All in all that was a pretty good day of boxing. Not a ton of memorable fights, but most were entertaining enough and I was glad to see Tszyu have a good return fight.

    Weirdly though, despite watching for 13 hours straight, apparently I only saw 17 matches today. Damned downtime padding.

    Oh well, still plenty of boxing for one day, and one hell of a way to wrap it up! Congrats to Tim on the return to the winner's circle in what's hopefully the beginning of a long stay:ggg

    The power in Tszyu’s thudding punches is quite telling, Spencer’s face was mangled at the time of the stoppage in only round 4.

    Tsyzu came across like an elder statesman, composed, methodical and mature. He beat Spencer like a government mule. If he can come out like that in his future fights and remain composed, he’ll be in with a great chance to beat the belt holders at 154 no question.
