Comments Thread For: All Oz on me: Tim Tszyu returns with stoppage of Joey Spencer

[JohnnyCan]

Joey Spencer, the perennial prospect from Michigan. Are we not entertained?

2 x PBC Prospect of the year so AL HAYMON must of thought Joey was the most promising of young fighters at PBC. And hopefully he can come back stronger next fight. He still is one of top fighters at PBC.

How about Charles Conwell next ? Conwell is undefeated, very dangerous, but seems to be left out in the cold since the Patrick Day tragedy. I doubt Tszyu fights anyone even remotely dangerous.

I like Conwell but he needs to get a couple names under his belt. You don’t fight possibly the best 140# fighter ever - Kostya Tszyu son unless your well known.

I applaud his bravery, but Tszyu is very limited in terms of actual skills. I kick myself repeatedly for actually at one time believing he'd be a stern test for Jermell Charlo. Brian Castaño would have beaten Tim convincingly.

and you know this how? GTFOH

It was like he fought in a way to piss off his dad after the argument in his corner after round 2. I don't know if he's done, but he needs a new coach. He's also small for the weight class. Don't know if he can make 147, but that could be an option.

I agree with you Steelman. Didn’t understand between rounds what was going on. Joey fought a good number of recent fights at 160# so I’m not sure can even get close to fighting conditions at 147#. Unfortunately was a very bad performance by Joey who I really like and hope he comes back stronger next fight

Charlo wouldn’t have had a chance against Timmy. Charlo was very good but we saw he has absolutely no dawg in him against Canelo and was one of the most embarrassing performances in modern history. I think he shells up against tzysu.

My Grandmother (RIP) would have beaten Charlo at this point.

Tszyu looked like his regular, kind of robotic self. He will always struggle with quick fighters who can decently counterpunch. He is also very open to hooks and doesn't move his head at all. I do think he would be able to beat Fundora and probably Zayas. Thurman would be a bad style matchup for him as well Madrimov. Vergil would probably knock him out. Cromwell may be the best all of them, but we will have to see what happens when he steps up (or more like when they give him an opportunity).

Still, gotta give it to Tszyu, he is a warrior with high entertainment value, nothing wrong with that.

===> Tim?

My apologies you are right. It’s Tim Zsyiu. I wonder what the heck was I thinking

[champion4ever]

not ready for thurman!!! tim is back baby wahoo he will flog the **** out of thurman haha

What I meant to say was Tim Tszyu. Not his father Kostya. I am sorry NSB. My sincerest apologies are extended to the forum for my terrible blunder.

However, it’s true. Tim is not ready for Keith just yet. I say give him until at least another three or more fights before throwing back in with elite competition again.

It’s for his own good. They shouldn’t cash the kid out just yet because of his famous last name.

You're an animal.... but I like that about you!

Fight Keith Thurman next definitely does sound a bit sadistic if one were to ask a me
