    Comments Thread For: Activity Matters: Tim Tszyu Says Boxing Is Devoid of Old-School Fighters

    Tim Tszyu considers himself to be cut from an old-school cloth. The son of Hall of Fame fighter Kostya Tszyu has carte blanche to make such statements, especially since the highly active fighter's actions back up his words in the ring.

      They all talk and act that way at the beginning and then they change their tune all of a sudden when they’re at the top and someone else is chasing them.

      We'll see what happens but I’m not holding my breathe.

      Even Keith himself used to talk and act exactly like Tszyu and then when Spence came up and started calling him out he did a 180.

      Look what Bud doing right now?

      All these guys are the same.

      One guy I can say never changed his tune is Errol Spence

        It sucks how inactive fighters have become that someone who fights twice a year is considered active. 3-4 times is a sweet spot in today’s world.

            Oh? Errol "Wrong side of the street" Spence who never fought more than once or twice a year after he picked up a title.

              Tim Tyszu is absolutely percent on point here. Nothing else needs to be said. He's definitely a throw back in the sense that he is willing to fight the best and most importantly staying active. I wish him nothing but success in the future. The kid has the right attitude

                Jermel Charlo is enjoying the vacation while Tszyu is fighting 4 times a year. Old school does not translate in paydays

                  He must truly enjoy vacationing in the slammer more than time in the ring.

                  Them paydays sure is getting fewer and far between...

                    I mean, he's not wrong. But I don't want to hear this from a guy who has fought no one.
