    I hear you, but other people have said it about him anyway. Plus, he's telling everbody what he's about, no different that Anderson (hw) sayin he's in it for money.

    But... now that Tzsyu talked about it, he has to continue to be about it.

    yea time has a way of working towards the truth in boxing............

        Tim may not be an all time great but he is doing everything he is supposed to do and for coming from a rich family he is putting in hard work, he could have been a trust fund baby but he is risking his health to be a fighter.

        People were thinking he would fizzle out 5 years ago but he is still here, number 1 in the division, charlos ducked him. Thurman is no match for him but you can see why Tim's people wanted that fight, they want to get him a "name", that is how the business is, you arent big until you beat a big name even if they are shot or whatever.

          Sue comes from money. From day one, name the fight where Timmy was the underdog? It never happened. It never will from the looks of it. His own people have no faith, they're keeping him in the kiddie pool for a reason. Thurman at middleweight, really?

            Couldn’t agree with him more about these jokers nowadays. The way things are going we may not ever see modern classics with the best in the sport fighting each other in their primes or close to it

              Tim was and still is considered a joke, by some fools in boxing. But to me, it's been obvious for years now that Tim is a serious guy, he doesn't wanna be in his father's shadow. He very much wants to make his own name, and he's not taking any easy routes or shortcuts. Compare his attitude to that of a lot of modern guys who seem to be trying to steal easy money wherever they can, while trying to avoid the real tough fights at all costs. Based on that alone, you can definitely consider Tim as a throwback fighter, someone who says he wants everybody, instead of ducking, picking and choosing. He's tougher mentally than a lot of these guys. He's not chasing the bag per se, just chasing the toughest challengers he can find. I think you gotta respect Tim for his attitude, toughness, and for his abiliity. Tim is not piggybacking off his father's name, he's made his own name now, and he's building his own legacy, one fight at a time. He's active, and he lets his fists do the talking. Tim is no -nonsense, mean, and his actions speak louder than his words. Good luck to him and Keith Thurman. May the best man win when they meet.

                    I don’t think team Tszyu would sign Zerafa up again after he pulled the pin on them close to the fight date in 2021.
                    Tim was fuming.

                      I couldn't agree more ! Tim is right on the money. He's my kind of fighter. Cut from the cloth of Trinidad , Cotto , Morales , Chavez Sr. , etc. Seek and DESTROY. Ya'll need to put some RESPEK ON HIS NAME Tim Tszyu has earned it. He's no NEPO BABY.
