Comments Thread For: Tim Tszyu 'moving forwards' in the wake of defeat

Funny af how many articles and posts i have seen sh**** on Dubois for 'quitting' yet Tsyzu literally said no mas and lots of people defending him. The guy quit on his stool worst way to be a quitter. Turki should have kept his tweet up. Tsyzu threw shots at him first saying he would not sell his soul for money etc now look at him quitter, no injuries, not hurt just straight quit.

Exactly. They literally just asked him about working with turki and the guy called him a spoiled kid or someshlt. Now he's shot early in his career and the pbc loyalty ain't getting him nowhere back to the top or even the money he was making.

Yeah they both quit but you saying that quitting on the stool is worse is subjective. Dubois looked like he could have gotten up and chose not to. But the bigger difference was Tyszu appeared to be fighting hard and doing the best he could up until that point and was taking real punishment every round . Dubois maybe had 20 seconds of success and then packed it in after the first real solid shots landed.

I'm not going to count out Tim. Anyone can come back from adversity. I think Tim needs to regain his confidence and he needs to move past his traumatic losses. Those were major losses and experiences he went through. I think he can come back. That PTSD might always be there, but he needs to regain his confidence. I'd like to see him stay active for 3-4 fights against lesser opponents. He's still relatively young at 30. He can do it.

Tim's idea of "forward" may differ from others.
Let's see what he means with his next opp

So Turkey likes to use his influence to denigrate earnest souls that don't march to his beat. Then he deletes. EXACTLY why I do not refer to him in the expected, prefered manner in which those around to him refer to him.

Turki is the greatest thing that’s happened to boxing. Boxers are getting paid a lot more than they were fighting for Western corrupt promoters AND we are getting the fights we want.

You can refer him to whatever you wish, many will refer him to his given title.

Anyone who thinks Tim can rebound has to be Australian.

+ money laundering

Money laundering!!!! lol!! This has to be the dumbest comment here.
That is LEGAL oil money. NOT cartel or drug money or any kind of “offshore investments“ that US conglomerates do to hide money or to use your words, launder money.

Oil revenue is paying for sporting events in Saudi. Period.

Turki is a bltch in a dress. He doesn't have half of the heart of Tim Tszyu. Turki has never been in a fist fight in his life , a spoiled pampered little brat is all he's ever been. One day MBS will get tired of Turki and he'll be in a hole in the desert or being tortured in a dungeon until he dies.

Has Bob Arum ever been in a fist fight in his life? How about Al Haymon? How about the boxing promoters in the UK? Have they?

MBS will not get tired of Turki. Those are your jealous wishful thinking on your part.
Untold riches await those boxers that embrace Riyadh season aka the greatest boxing promoter in the game. Long live the King

The only reason the Saudi royal family set up Riyadh Season (and LIV golf, for that matter) is for the PR value of owning sporting spectacles that bring attention to the regime in a 'positive' light. There is no intrinsic interest in the betterment of pro boxing from the Saudis. They see a market demographics (boxing fans and golf fans) and use those as captive audiences to sportswash the image of the country.

And how exactly is that a problem? Riyadh season rules

If I was Tim Tszyu I would move up to 160. It’s less talented there.

Staying at 154 is futile. It’s loaded with talent. Besides; what does he have to lose fighting at Middleweight?

After all, he is a gatekeeper status now.
