The fight is a long time coming. "The Butcher" believes losses against Peter Quillin, Jeff Horn, and Erislandy Lara will play a factor in him mentally and physically dominating Zerafa.
"Michael struggles when put into uncomfortable situations," Tszyu told Fox Sports. "Look at Erislandy Lara, who made him uncomfortable early in their fight. And by simply taking away a few of his tools.
"That moment got the better of him -- and he broke mentally. It’s why I see vulnerabilities there... And that’s why now if you put him into that mindset again, he can’t escape it."
