Comments Thread For: Tony Harrison: What Did Tim Tszyu Accomplish To Fight For Every Single One Of The Belts?

[al-Xander]

Harrison is basically saying US boxers are better than boxers outside of America. I have to wonder who would determine that. Harrison make it sound like he went through hoops before getting into titles. He was offered the Lara fight with WBA on the line, he declined and picked Hurd, who knocked him out. They're both at the same level then. And where is Hurd now?

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.

This is coming from a guy who lost to Willie Nelson lmao.

Gausha always have his dangerous moments in every fight. You'd get hurt if you're not ready. I don't know why PBC don't let him stay active and prefer to keep him on the shelf. I'm guessing Harrison wanted none of that Gausha smoke. Gausha vs Fundora would be an intriguing fight.

F all that bs political crap Tony!

Just bust his ass in the ring!

Take him in deep water and drown his ass!

Harrison is the one that's been proven to drown when thrown into deep water. Tszyu needs to establish a pace that Harrison cannot keep up with.

And having said all of that, he's probably getting knocked out by a dude that hasn't done ish and don't deserve to be fighting for the belts as he stated. Dude is giving you an opportunity to make a good payday when you have nothing else going for you and never mind he's risking an already guaranteed title shot and all you can do is crap on him for what he's gotten 'cos u wasted your own chances, what a self entitled doucebag. I like Tsyzu, he's definitely built different, from him chompimg at the bit to fight Charlo to now Harrison, most of our American fighters can learn from that.

“I don’t even know how he got here for Jermell, to be honest. You know what I mean? Like how did he – what steps did he take to get there? You know what I mean? I fought guys like [Jarrett] Hurd and Charlo, and then I was lining up to fight [Sebastian] Fundora. So, to get there my road was expensive. Like I had to expend a lot to get to my road back to Jermell.”


Just to be clear, Tony beat nobody of note, then lost to Willie Nelson, then beat Radchenko to get a title shot vs Hurd, which he lost. He then beat Ishe Smith by SD to earn another title shot.

He got 2 title shots off the back of doing very little. He's now getting an interim title fight even though a lot of people thought he lost to Perrella. But somehow he thinks the biased politics of boxing are against him rather than working in his favour.

Don't know why Harrison makes it look like Hurd was some boogeyman when he fought him. He fought him because he's minty green, or so he thought. Lara and Decubas wanted to cherrypick Harrison, but Tony declined the offer of a WBA title shot and went for Hurd. Not many boxers want Lara, I know, but Harrison making it look like he did not have his fair share of avoiding certain fights is bordering on delusions. Mentioning Hurd's name won't work.

I've always liked Harrison and the Russel bros attitudes.

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.

I was wondering about that. With a style like that he must hit harder than his father. If not, ouch!
