He isn't exactly a P4P star in the making or anything, but the good thing for Tszyu is that because he's Australian and not American, he can continue on and will likely get another belt back soon. From my personal observation, those outside America don't have the ******ed "thou holy zero-ness" religious followers where the soft coddled "0" is somehow valued over anything else in the world.

I think he will have a decent career though, he's pretty good. Not P4P as you say, he's a bit of a flat track bully, nowhere near as refined as his father.
Still he's the best current second generation boxer by a distance imo, and solid world level.

I'm sure they will - but how they view his 'take' will depend on how his career goes from here. If he is sidelined for 2/3 years and comes back at 32 years old post prime (when he is peak prime now) then those young boxers in the gyms will rightly conclude that protecting the '0' is the path to follow

Originally posted by JakeTheBoxer View PostTim is a good fighter, but he is not future p4p material as some guys suggested. He is decent and he will likely win the belt again. These guys at 154 can all lose to each other.

Originally posted by Corelone View PostI feel bad for Wilson, he actually faced two top fighters on the road and Zarafa was fed to the dogs. Timmy was spoon fed all along. Why not feel bad for the blown up lightweights and guys who lost fights before Timmy got to them. Fundo lucked out when they didn't drag him to Oz.

I was with you up until you stated he was BLATANTLY elbowed. I CAN'T STAND Fundora, but in no way, shape or form was Tszyu elbowed intentionally.
Make it make sense.....

Tszyu will be able to get paydays in Australia at any point in the next 15 years. He can lose his next 5 fights in a row and the Australians will still pack 60,000 into a stadium to see him face a returning Anthony Mundine.

…what?
those are excuses. Doesn’t matter if they’re true, they’re excuses especially the second one, because before the fight he said it wouldn’t be a problem. That makes it an excuse when you say that after.
As I said elsewhere in response to someone else: when Valero got his gusher, he notched it up and basically went for broke. Tszyu could and should have taken Fundora out long before that cut. Now the narrative is that Mendoza is better than Tszyu and we know it’s not true. But that will be the narrative. Because Tszyu took his foot off the gas.
