Comments Thread For: Tim Tszyu Floors Stevie Spark Twice, Scores Third Round Stoppage in Newcastle

He will be about as accomplished as eubank Jr when it's all said and done, not a total bum but not a patch on his dad.

Finally saw the fight. I think you're right. Although, maybe he'll surprise everybody. He can be hit, but he has real power and throws a nice variety of punches.

As of now I think Charlo and Castaņo beat him. Garcia is a toss up, but if Garcia trains hard and takes it seriously, he will win.

I don’t want to assume you’re Aussie so correct me if i’m wrong, that said, almost every time an undefeated boxer from Australia travels to the US for a title fight, they get not only beaten up but exposed that they don’t belong. I bought into the Katsidis hype until he showed up knocking on US shores. Sure he was exciting and I still like the guy but he just wasn’t good enough to beat Juan Diaz or Marquez or Casamayor.
There was Jeff Horn who got a gift decision over PAC, there’s Kamboso will be vaporized by Teofimo and as much hype there is on Justis Huni, he will get annihilated as soon as he crosses the ocean.

Long story short, Danny Garcia will stop Tszyu in less than 10 rounds …. I think it’s just the style of boxing taught

it is the jet lag.

Aussie boxers are not taught defensive responsibility so they are often aggressive without considering what the response may be and being prepared for it, plus they do not take the time to work an opponent out like Crawford does. Jeff Horn is a prime example of Aussie style, his great showing against Packy consisted of relentless attack and not much else. As far as performing in the US goes it does seem to be a thing, basically it seems to be that Aussie boxers just don't go well for some strange reason although of course some are simply outclassed.

I'm telling you now Tim Tszyu is not an elite level fighter, his head barely moves off center line and someone at world level is going to counter his head off his shoulders coming to a ring near you soon.

Yes, typical Aussie trained if better than most. Still don't underestimate him, he seems to be able to learn on his feet and adapt to the oppositions style.

Did you notice how small Spark was, he was a JWW not long ago and stepped in on a week's notice, you can't judge anything from that other than Tim gets hit with right hands and will be very different with a real world-class 154 pounder in front of him, he is very open the top guys will smoke him.

i think because Spark was the smaller man, Tim didn't really care about what was coming back at him.

I think you'll find when he's fighting the top guys, he'll be more defensively responsible
