tszyu believes in himself and hes ability
he chose harrison over a stay busy easy beat fight because he believes in himself
probably not the smartest move from a business sense but isnt this what every fan of the sport wants
someone who is not afraid to take on the best even when they dont have too
i for one applaude tszyu and think hes risk will pay off when he beats harrison and it just makes the charlo fight all the much bigger

Or he may loose and learn from the experience. It is still up in the air. Harris is not making this stuff up as far as how TSZ got to where he is. Lotta fighters have doors opened for many reasons but what they do with there chances makes or breaks them. They both got a shot in this one. Showtime should win again with a card from (down under?) A shot for dif reasons. There should always be a bit of truth to the fight build up and there is this time. How true it is will be decided in the ring as it should be. At least they are not hyping a figth that the hype is manufactured. It is a ligit fight with some questions that need to be ansered. I am up for it, not as much as a few other fights i might get to see later on the year. But got my attention.....

He might have heavier hands than his dad though. He is a heavy handed stalker and Harrison isnt the most durable. He is going to force the fight and land anywhere he can, body and head. I think Harrison is going to get beaten into submission.

Is he really that heavy handed though?

I'm a big fan - I'm also an Aussie, but I don't see this crazy power people talk about

Funny how you took the time to spell out Harrison but yet you calling Tim out of his name referring to him as Kazoo...smh

[Sid-Knee]

Uhh, but who did you beat the get the title fights with Hurd and Charlo? You got knocked out by Willie Nelson and beat Rabchenko to get your first title fight with Hurd. Then you got knocked out by him. To get your next title fight with Charlo, you got knocked out by Nelson and Hurd, but beat Rabchenko.

How the hell are you deluding yourself that you had to go through "Fire" to get there? No you didn't. In fact, Tim has a better resume (Neither are really worth talking about) to get his title shot. If he beats you this coming Sunday, he'll definitely have the much better resume to get a shot at a full title.

Credit to Tim though for taking this. He could have easily had some dude just to keep sharp on before taking his shot. But he's actually in a good fight. He didn't need to actually risk his shot.

That "Kazoo" name started with Jermell Charlo. He's probably their idol and role model. A tough talking, trash talking, always angry role model, who always tend to be in physical violent confrontations.

No matter how SURE you are of the outcome , it is still an intriguing fight because ANYTHING can happen. Personally it is going to depend on how much Harrison has left in the tank. If he is remotely as good as the fighter who was schooling Charlo in the 2nd fight before he got ****y and got stopped Tim is in for a looong night. I suspect that version of Harrison no longer exists thus I am leaning to the strong , young and determined puncher in Tim. My heart says Harrison. My head says Tim.

Harrison went from a fight he wasn't going to win [Fundora] to a fight he has a very good chance of winning [Ka-Zoo]. In other words, he went from prison to the Grayhound bus terminal. He really lucked up.

[Malvado]

Well Tony isn't wrong, Tim cut the line over everyone else due to being the son of the legend Kostya Tzyu and was well managed onto taking a title shot for all the world titles at 154 against Jermell Charlo by only fighting a shot welterweight in Jeff Horn and Terrell Gausha.

At least however, can't say he isn't putting on the work trying to make a name for himself, he could had waited for Jermell to recover from his injury but instead took on a difficult challenge by taking on a contender who already beat the world champion.

if he manages to beat Harrison, he be just as worthy as let's say Castano and Fundora as he has beaten two top 10 contenders.

Tony is a great boxer. But Terrell Gausha is a very good boxer too. I feel like Tszyu beating him the way he did, is a sign that he's ready for anyone, especially considering he's a very hard worker and he's always training and improving. I think Tony Harrison better not sleep. I feel like Tszyu rises to the level of his competition, and can surprise someone who takes him lightly.

I don't think Harrison would even get past Gausha. And I have to wonder why Gausha is not in Harrison's resume. Hmm...
