Tim Tszyu Set for Blockbuster World Title Eliminator in Australia
Australian boxer Tim Tszyu is all set for a major return to the ring as he gears up for a blockbuster world title eliminator in his home country. Four months after suffering his first career loss, Tszyu is ready to make a statement with this upcoming fight.
Although his opponent for the September 22 event has not yet been announced, names like Erickson Lubin, Jesus Ramos Jnr, Slawa Spomer, and Jack Culcay are being considered. Tszyu, with the support of his CEO George Rose, is eager to take on any contender and prove himself as the king of the 154-pound division.
Reflecting on his previous loss, Tszyu accused Lubin of avoiding a fight earlier this year, sparking a potential rivalry between the two. Despite the setback in his last fight, Tszyu is determined to bounce back and secure his shot at the IBF world title.
With negotiations still ongoing for the venue of the fight, Tszyu will be training in Las Vegas alongside his brother Nikita, who is also preparing for a title defense. The Australian Pay-Per-View event is expected to draw a lot of attention globally, especially with Tszyu eyeing a chance to face current IBF champ Bakhram Murtazaliev in the future.
The road to redemption for Tszyu is paved with challenges, but the young boxer remains undeterred in his pursuit of boxing greatness. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting journey towards a world title shot for Tim Tszyu.
