Tim Tszyu (25-2, 18 COs) says he’s not sure who he wants to fight with, after his fourth round technical knockout victory over Joey Spencer (19-2, 11 COs) Saturday night in Newcastle Entertainment Center, Newcastle, Australia.
Tszyu, 30, worked quickly from Spencer and downloaded in the fourth round with a barrage of push to get the knockout. In former WBO junior middleweight champion Tszyu, now that he has removed the way out, he wants a big fight next time.
Target list
– Keith Thurman
– Jermell Charlo
– Errol Spence
– Bakhram Murtazaliev
– Vergil Ortiz Jr.
– Sebastian Fundora
Some are unrealistic for Tszyu because he did not look enthusiastic when he mentioned the names of Vergil Jr. and Murtazaliev as possibilities. It’s not surprising. The way Tszyu fought tonight, he would have problems with the IBF 154-Pond Champion Bakhrham Murtazaliev, because he was just struggling. That’s what struck him against Murtazaliev.
The remains
The fight against the inactive Jermell Charlo, Thurman of Spencer would be more at the level of the business at Tszyu. Those guys rarely fight, and none of them are considered relevant at 154. These are remnants of the past and do not have a place in this era of the sport, except to return for pay days, but not to win or fight for a world title.
“Yes, of course, but as I said. We got the rehydration,” Tim Tszyu said at the Press conference after battle When asked if he wanted a re -broadcast with the IBF junior middleweight champion Bakhram Murtazaliev. ‘Fundora probably. But look, there’s (Jermell) Charlo, there’s Thurman, there’s Errol Spence and Vergil Ortiz, ‘says Tszyu and rattle of different fighters he can face next.
“This is the list, and they can all be #1. If we do Thurman, we would do it in Australia. If we can make it happen, it’s a big fight in Australia. Also the world titles and the big boys. This is where I want to be. ‘
