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

[Theshotyoudontsee]

You are reading too much into the narrative, Bakhram was connecting with the jab and side steping to set up hooks and crosses, Tim was Tim when he is hurt he is all over the place and dont know what to do, Bakham would stiffen him again he is just a better overall fighter, they know it he is never mentioned by any in Tims camp

Thurman is well past it he was fed a total novice to build this fight in Aus, at this point in time Tim is too strong and too quick for Thurman, Keith's class got him home with Brock but he looked slow to me and every bit at the end of career.

No disrespect at all to Murt, watched him several times and I was looking forward to a really good fight against Tszyu. Tszyu literally went in headhunting and showed zero respect. A combination of factors led to that....Tim lost a fight that he should not have due to an elbow from Fundora and he was looking for a quick knockout, and he was trying to impress his dad. It was really obvious. Tim got caught and then even more idiotically he refused to recover and hold or do anything that even a B level boxer is taught to do.

I'm not saying that Murt couldn't beat him in a rematch. What I'm saying is that Tim is alot better fighter than that. Mendoza can crack and Tim was patient and outboxed him thoroughly. When he fights that fight he is very composed and dangerous. He couldn't have fought more ****** against Murt.

I'd love to see the rematch. Thurman is retired and looking for whatever paycheck he can get. Tim will f him up.

Oh! I am sorry about that. I haven’t watched the fight yet.
I’ve just seen highlights and clips of his knockout stoppage victory over Jarvis.

In any case, KeithThurman still won the fight by way of TKO though. If the dude could punch he probably could have gotten “One time” outta there.

Yeah, he got the stoppage but looked very vulnerable prior to it like if he was in there with anyone near the world like he might have not made it out.

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

Kostya was better

We’ll just have to wait and see. If Team Tszyu is willing to roll the dice by putting Tszyu back in with another dangerous puncher like Keith Thurman again. If they do decide that they would want to go in that direction then fair play to them.

However, what really concerns me the most about Tim Tszyu. Is that he has already touched the canvas for a total of six times already in his career.

In addition, he doesn’t appear to be packing a whole lot of knockout power or a huge punch either. For instance: He couldn’t even get Joey Spencer off his feet.

Yeah he got the TKO win but it came as a result of Spencer’s corner surrendering by throwing in the towel.

Not once did he ever put Spencer on the seat of his pants or drop him. Something which I find very alarming.

By a country mile!!!

Other than Jarvis Keith hasn't been " One Time" in a long , long time and that was at 147. I don't think that he's nearly as dangerous a puncher as you believe he is . I guess we will just have to see.

Lets be realistic , Joey was gonna go down and hard
The way he puts punches together, the velocity and the diversity of punches , imo is very impressive
That is why papa Spencer threw that towel and it came fairly fast that meant the impact of those punches live were damning

No more headhunting and patience will be favourable for him
Did you see his post fight interview ???
He mentions what a horrible plan he’s had until now getting swept by his own ko’s

Well I saw it different, Tim walked up like he always does, got caught with clean shots starting off the jab and Bakrham moved on angles, Tim got caught clean and continued to just be there he wasnt head hunting anymore than he always is.

This is exactly how I seen this fight unfold.

[Roj]

it looks to me that Tsyz has reached as far as he can at this point or any point and really i have more confidence in Spen not being done with himself just yet. Tim just acts like a cheap salesman inside the ring after all his fights there is not a fierceness to him, just lines rehearsed and then shouted out for Promotions of himself. Spen looked and acted overwhelmed by the moment inside the ropes, he seemed relieved that it the fight was over. Leave home Spen it is no longer a family affair...........break away.

Totally agree. Plus, Tszyu’s team hasn’t always served him well. They should have never accepted Fundora as a last-minute replacement for Thurman, shouldn’t have allowed that fight to continue after Fundora elbowed that deep cut in Tim’s head and shouldn’t have made Murtazaliev his first fight back. Tszyu is more of a great sell-promoter than a legitimate title threat.

[BlackRobb]

I am not triggered by anything what happened between Tim and Bakhram. Tim was overconfident to the point of arrogance and went into that fight thinking he was levels above Murtazaliev and was going to blow him away in a couple of rounds. He paid the price for such a dumb mistake. Now he has to try to rebuild (if he can).

I agree with you that Keith Thurman is about the right level of opponent (off the couch) to put in front of Tim and see where his level is at after the brutal loss to Murtazaliev. I think it will be a tough fight for both of them.

Decent fight until Keef finds the range. You guys forget that Thurman beat Danny Garcia and Shawn Porter and was a knockdown away from beating Manny.
