Brian Mendoza: record, next fight and profile →
Interim WBC junior middleweight champion Brian Mendoza (22-2) has been on a roll as of late. If things continue go his way, he will pick up his third big win in a row on October 15th when he faces WBO junior middleweight champion Tim Tszyu (23-0) in his native country of Australia.
Normally, when fighters have successfully built up their names, the activity that once propelled them takes a backseat. Call it enjoying the fruits of their labor. Whatever it is, Tim Tszyu isn’t suffering from any of that.
Tim Tszyu had his heart set on facing Jermell Charlo. The Aussie native did all of the needed leg work, including a ninth-round stoppage win over Tony Harrison followed by a first-round destruction of Carlos Ocampo.
Australian superstar Tim Tszyu is preparing for a very action-packed battle with top junior middleweight contender Brian Mendoza. Their fight was officially announced to take place in Australia on Sunday, October 15. Tszyu's last few fights have been carried on Showtime. Due to the time difference, the upcoming contest would happen on October 14 in the United States.
Tim Tszyu will defend the WBO super welterweight world title in Australia on Sunday, October 15, No Limit Boxing confirmed today. Tszyu, 28, will defend the WBO super-welterweight world title for the first time following the organization's decision to elevate him to full champion status as soon as Jermell Charlo is announced in the ring for his highly anticipated fight with Canelo Alvarez on September 30.
Junior middleweight star Tim Tszyu is looking ahead to a potential showdown with dangerous puncher Brian Mendoza. Tszyu, who holds the WBO's interim title, is going to become the full champion once current beltholder Jermell Charlo steps in the ring with super middleweight king Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez on September 30.
For Erickson Lubin, he was never interested in facing faded contenders or no-hopers. The sport of boxing is a kill-or-be-killed world and Lubin has enjoyed stepping into the ring with those who are bloodthirsty.
