    Kambosos or Tim Tszyu who will become a bigger star in Australia?

    Im thinking Kambosos, he already seems to have more following and fans and views than timmy, also kambosos is a good talker and exchanges brash words, and timmy is a choir boy doesn’t talk or have much personality.

    Tim has the last name which makes him instantly recognizable to fight fans, especially those in Australia. It can be a blessing and a curse, however, to follow in the footsteps of a highly accomplished parent. How often will he have to hear, "He's good, but his dad..."?

    You're right, Kambosos has the much bigger personality and has a lot of charisma.

    Hopefully, they both get as famous as their accomplishments in the ring warrant.

      Tim isn't a real Aussie, Kambo is. I think he's a superstar waiting to happen.

        One is Russian, born and raised in Russia. The other is Greek, born and raised in Australia. Take your pick.

          Tim Tszyu was born and raised in Australia, has learned boxing in Australia and has only represented Australia. George Kambosos is Australian. His parents were born and raised in Australia also.

            Tim only went to Russia at the age of 13 for a few months before returning to Australia. He was born and raised in Australia.

                Russian or Greek neither are real Aussies, Jeff Fenech was of Maltese decent, Lester Ellis Barry Michaels were UK and Johnny Famechon was French.

                The last real Aussie to win a world title was Jeff Horn and before that Lionel Rose.

                Youve got to understand that Australia is a multicultural society, it has welcomed immigrants for most of its history, lots of ethnic Australian are now Aussies.

                I forgot Jeff Harding.

                  It doesn't take much to become a superstar in Australia, look at Jeff horn, Danny Green, Mundine etc.

                  Tszyu in my opinion has more of a higher ceiling than Kambosos who's best night I think we have already seen.

                  But either way both these guys can print Australian dollars for the rest of their lives.

                    I think Kamboses has more potential to be bigger star in Australian.

                    Tszyu has the name, size, and the looks but as a fighter, he is kind of so so.
