    Yes it was a horrible decision by Tszyu and his team also I thought it was stupid to be fighting in some small arena in Florida against a dangerous opponent when he could've fought in front of a packed house anywhere in Australia.

    Tszyu kills Joey Spencer. Tim needs the soft touch and confidence builder after going through two tough defeats (one absolutely brutal). He should get rid of Joey under 5.

    Yep I think Tszyu blasting a guy like Spencer out in 5 or 6 rounds is exactly what he needs to rebuild if he wants to get back to where he was.

    I agree, although I'm with CST80 that Zerafa is better than Spencer. He needs another higher-level tune up after this before stepping in with an actual contender.

    Spencer is Dre affiliated and idolizes him

    He also tried to win brownie points by dissing Loma

    So not only did I thoroughly enjoy watching his hype train get derailed but I'm the one who messed with the tracks

    Now I'm going to thoroughly enjoy watching Tszyu beat his ass into a quivering heap

    It's hard to say with Zerafa who hasn't looked good for a few years also I don't think Zerafa can make 154 anymore and he has been up at middleweight. I agree he needs another tune up after Spencer, Tszyu is at his best when he stays active if he can get 3 wins in 2025 say against Spencer, Thurman and then maybe Lubin I think he will be ready to get back in the world title picture in 2026.

    Tim has no ZEROS left to give so he better take care of business.

    No big deal. Callum Smith's comeback fight after Beterbiev was someone who was 20-15 from 168.

    I like that run of fights for Tim this year - Spencer, Thurman & Lubin. They will test him out & lay a platform for an assault on the division's summit if he's good enough to win them.

    Tszyu really should be beating Spencer and Zerafa on the same night.

    For all the talk that Tszyu might have had his chin cracked, Zerafa literally got his head caved in against Erislandy Lara. Mind you, Lara is a fabulous fighter but even so, Zerafa’s punch resistance was terrible.

    Zerafa could fight Tszyu ten times and he loses every single one of them. He’s a bum.
