Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

No relation I believe. Trains up on the Sunshine Coast.

 

Ippy> Any idea on Justis's next bout and the next Tasman card?

 

All up in the air at this stage but late September is likely.

 

fantastic, thanks for the update

 

Nikita Tszyu $1.24 Mahoney $4.50

 

Mahoney feather fisted. I know guys with no pro experience who'd knock him out.

 

Peter Badel that worm is tipping Spence to win. Must mean Tim's a near certainty.

 

I said Reda wins 2 days ago. Tbh I'm not sure. I'd pick him but not without a chance Fleming due to his experience. Teda does look sharp though. He's a good kid.

 

Australia Day has started well in the boxing with Paul Trainor stopping a Scotsman in the Light Heavyweight division at the Commonwealth Games. Pommie cheerleaders, I mean commentators, were aghast when the blood started flowing on the Scotsman in the second round & completely ignored the punches Trainor was landing. The female Pommie commentator then claimed she saw a head clash in the first round. Must have missed all the punches Trainor landed in the second, including knocking the other bloke's mouthguard out.

 

Sir Tim Tszyu.


Soon to be knighted!

 

Crazy there isn’t drug testing in this fight. Spence is coming off years of inactivity and would benefit from a little helping hand. I think Tim’s team have once again failed in their duty of care.

 

I cant make a prediction on todays fight...
I really didn't like alot from Tims last fight. I know it was a tune up and trying different trainer, that asside he looked bothered when hit, seemed to freeze a split second, the whole hands down..
I hope he has somehow found that old poise to an extent...
Nothing would suprise me in this fight, I always liked Spence...
However, being Aussie, go Timmy..
No matter what happens, "Never underestimate a Tszyu"

 

Honestly think Spence is here for the payday, have heard he is not looking that great but who knows, atleast Tim has been active but is declining quick.
I think Fleming might win, Reda could walk into a shot, if this was 5 years earlier its no question (on another note what a wasted career Paul Fleming had, he def could of won a world title had he been active earlier in his career.)

 

Tim looked flat and slow. Spence was horrid with no legs. I think Nikta would of had him out in max 3 rounds, then jump back in and take his own brother out in 5 rounds.

 

Never any doubt. He must be 0-36 tipping against the Aussies.
