The son of the legendary bone Tszyu will try to save his career after a terrible defeat: “Behind him is a country”
The most important moment for Tim. April 6 in Newcastle (Australia) will be a boxing tournament, in which Tim Tszyu will hold his next battle in his career. The opponent of the local mid -USE will be a strong American Joseph Spencer. For Tszyu, this fight will be the first from the moment he was defeated by Bahram Murtazaliev. Recall, on October 19, 2024, Tim was knocked out by the Chechen boxer already in the third round, which prevented him from becoming the IBF world champion. In addition, the defeat from Murtazaliev was the second row for the tszyu, so now in his career it has come, one might say, a decisive moment.Getty Imagesstastici Tszyu in the Profi consists of 26 battles. He won 24 times and in two cases lost, both times in 2024. Last March, Tim, being a champion in the 1st middle weight according to WBO, held the first unification battle in his career. His rival was the American Sebastian Fundor, and at Kon, in addition to the title of the Australian, there was a vacant belt from WBC. Zzyu in that duel showed the character and willingness to go to the end, but despite this, he did not act in the best way. Fundor confidently controlled most of the battle, opened a deep dissection on Tim's face and, as a result, took the victory by the decision of the judges.
Getty Imagesju made a noticeable breakthrough before last year and became one of the most promising boxers of his division. It was repeatedly reported that they want to see him in battles against the main stars of the category, including the former absolute champion Terens Crawford, ex-holders of the title of Israel Madrimov, a promising knockout Verdiz Ortiz and others. Probably, for this reason, Tszyu was again allowed to fight for the trophy with Murtazaliev a few months after the defeat of Tim from Fundora. The Australian got the opportunity to stay in the clip of the main people of the division, but did not use her, losing to the Russian. “I thought I could deal with Murtazaliev for a couple of rounds. This thought sat in my head: “This guy will not last more than two rounds.” But in professional boxing there are no two -day fighting. And I need to be smarter, ”Tszyu admitted in one of the recent interviews.
Getty Imagesbrows, Tim realizes that now the most important moment has come in his career. Another defeat can finally put the cross on his champion plans. The new Tszyu rival is not as eminent as his previous opponents, but this is a strong boxer with good statistics, so there will simply be no Tim. “This is the most important battle in my life. So much stands at the stake and so much I look forward to. Each battle is important, but this one is felt differently. I am concentrated only on it, ”said Zyu. Joseph Spencer also realizes that on his side there is a certain psychological advantage. The American is not shy about talking about it and clearly feels comfortable, because he had a chance to declare himself loudly.
Getty images “It is Tim in a difficult situation. He is obliged to win for his career. He has behind him the country he represents his name. And this is considerable pressure, ”Spencer said in an interview with Jay Macallister. The American is only 24 years old, and he only gets to the peak of his capabilities. At the same time, he already has 20 performances in professionals, of which he won 19 (11 times-by knockout). Spencer lost only once. It happened exactly a year ago, his offender then became Hesus Ramos.
