Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo-Tim Tszyu Mandatory Title Fight Ordered By WBO

It's too early for Tszyu to fight Charlo at this stage.
If Tim tightens up his defense his style could be a bad fit for Charlo.
Plus he will not slap at Charlo like Castano did.

When I watched Tim box a couple of years ago, he came across as defensively responsible and skillful.
The last couple of fights the pressure of giving the fans what they want, knockouts and blood has caused him to take unnecessary punishment to deliver more of his power punches. Because Tim doesn't have fight changing power he needs to raise his output and neglect his defense to make his fights more interesting.

The $$ will be the deciding factor whether Charlo takes this fight.

Tim isn't ready yet.

Jermell will duck.

He's never ducked anyone you dumb casual.

Hope its in AUS. Charlo will get a huge payday and win. Tszyu doesnt look ready.

Tszyu doesn’t want fight in AUS reason why he made U.S debut

I don’t think Tsyzu is ready for Jermell Charlo but he wants it real bad apparently. Nothing can stop a young fighter who has the itch to fight the “best” before he fights the “good”.

I guess this is what fans want. I don’t know why. Boxers don’t get developed anymore and fans don’t like it either. Even though they like to turn around and call everyone “green”.

Unlike castano there is the potential for real money to be made with tszyu which is why al won’t let him take the fight. He will wait for charlo to move up and let him fight someone he can he actually beat.

Suppose this will be a decent scrap. Charlo might as well move up for more interesting challenges at 160.

Charlo by KO.. Tszyu is not ready for that fight yet and might not ever be.

Tszyu fights like he is trapped in a wall of molasses. Too slow and poor defense. The apple fell very far from the family tree.
