Comments Thread For: Tim Tszyu has his priorities - but no need to sell his soul for money

[BlackRobb]

Don't really care if his pocket gets filled by Turki or Haymon cuz it ain't my money. As long as Tszyu doesn't get pulled into the PBC habit of annual fighting against meh opponent routine I would be happy.

After Murtazaliev if he wins I want to see either a Fundora rematch (or Spence if by some crazy miracle he wins if he even fights), Crawford unification, Ortiz, or the winner of Madrimov/Bohachuk if nothing else is available.

Tim will fight Bud when the Philadelphia Phillies win another World Series. Didn't you notice when Tim immediately mentioned Spence when Bud made that WBO move and closed inon him? Billy Bad Ass from Down Under suddenly lost his nuts just like Jermell did.

I think a lot of posters here are going to get a huge serve of humble pie after Tim's next fight. The level of pure poison coming out of some of these posts is incredible.

Tim may not win his next fight. Y'all were so fkn sure he'd smash Fundura, remember? It's clear to me that Tim and Ortiz Jr. are doing their absolute best to steer clear of Crawford. All the goose-stepping and juking & jiving is comical to see.

Tim is the number two LMW after Bud... He should rematch Fundora and go for Bud for the Undisputed Showdown... Even though he would lose

The haterism for a fighter.who is active , has an exciting style ,and down to fight anyone, at any time ,is inexplicable. Fighters like Tszyu are everything that is good about boxing.
It would make sense if Tim was ****ing their wives or something ,but otherwise makes no sense. I'd love to know the true reasons behind it.

You are right. Mind boggles. What do these guys get for their hate? What is the benefit? I don't get it.

If they are trying to bignote themselves on the forum, what they achieve is the exact opposite.

I applaud Tim and Canelo for having the courage to not sell his souls for the Saudi blood money like the three Turki lap dogs. Hearn, Warren, and S. Brown who have no regard whatsoever for the way Saudi’s treat women and the carving of an American journalist because he spoke his mind about the Saudi government. Kudos Tim and Canelo. Follow your moral compass and the universe will thank you.

Hardly surprising to be honest people whinge and complain about boxing selling out to the Saudi market then have a go at Tim for doing his own thing on PBC. Can’t win with boxing fans.

Good luck to Tim, and I hope it works out but lets be honest, this is 100% about selling his soul for money. Tim is just following the classic PBC business plan, get a belt, fight safe making less moneyuntil the scary guys go away and the names are on the downside.(See. Golovkin, Lomachanko, Fury and Crawford) Granted, on occasions there's a miss calculation but for the most part, the odds are favorable.

BTW, "America is where it's at" it was a nice touch, even though Tim only sells tickets in Australia.

Tim Tszyu isn't interested in prioritizing money over titles..... and that's great.... both Ortiz and Crawford have titles and money but then again, both are far better than Bakhram Murtazaliev. The real problem is that Tim can't risk another loss and the PBC needs belts in house and everything else is BS.

I do not believe Tim is avoiding scary guys. Everything on his resume shows that he wants to fight the scary guys. When he was mandatory for Charlo he fought the scariest guys at that time in the division, which he didn't have to do. He was going to fight young Vergil Ortiz until doctor over ruled him. He will prove that he is willing to fight the scary guys.

I believe he'd rather not fight Crawford. When Tim held the WBO belt and Bud invoked his mandatory status from the division below to fight Tim next, Mr. Tszyu immediately began mentioning Spence and Jermell, but not Bud.
