Comments Thread For: Xander Zayas: "All Respect To Tim Tszyu But It's My Time"

He'll roll Josh Kelly. Kelly is a blow-up welterweight who got stopped by Avanesyan about five years ago.

How is Kelly even ranked 1 on the basis of his record,?!

Kelly vs zayas in a final eliminator. Wont need an interim belt because Tzyu isn't injured or inactive. Also there's talks Tzyu is gonna probably fight Erickson lubin next

Ok that’s what I meant

Regardless have to respect the rankings

Zayas has some talent. But it's laughable for him to say it is "his time". He hasn't fought anyone. At all. And he looks better than the C level comp he is fighting, but not THAT much better for long stretches.

Meanwhile Tszyu been beating good fighters easily. Give him the last few guys Zayas has fought and Tim KO's them inside one or two rounds.

Zayas needs to calm down and take off the training wheels. I get he is young, but he is being brought along slower than a 90 year old using a walker.

Eye test, Tszyu walks him down and stops him inside five IMO. Young bro thinks he is Superman fighting bums. Let Tim check that chin a few times, he will realize he ain't fighting a guy put in there to lose. He will get broken down and stopped. He needs a few real tests before talking this kind of smack.

Just like Ennis.

winning and defending a WBO trinket belt usually does the trick

Kelly vs Zayas for interim title, and shot at winner of Tszyu vs whoever he gonna fight next for full title. Make it happen

Why would they need to fight for an interim title as opposed to an eliminator ?

Tszyu is the best fighter at 154 when he beats Jermell Charlo. Simple as that.

indeed.

I doubt Jermell will ever fight
Tszyu...not because he is scared or ducking Tszyu, but simply because I honestly do not see Jermell ever fighting back in 154 again outside of a money grab against Crawford. He will sit around his millions he made for running from Canelo until late next year then fight a random catchweight BS if he doesn't get Bud.

well until Charlo leaves the division due to inactivity, moving up, or til he loses, then Tszyu is second best at 154. Takes more than that Mendoza win to supplant a (until recently) undisputed champion.

I was corrected previously, that’s what I meant.

[CPNUTKnockoutFreshMart]

I like Zayas but I don't think that Tims time is anywhere near "up". In my opinion, Tim beats Charlo and everyone else at 154.

[Wacked_Out]

Zayas is running parallel with Vito Mielnieki, fighting some of the same guys even. Im gonna put them on the same level but Zayas just a little bit higher. At least till I see him fight someone besides guys I barely know with their 4 losses. Tzszsyu would stomp on him right now.

It has to be proven in the ring. Otherwise that's just your opinion. Simple as that.
