Gradually, Tim Tszyu was backing Jermell Charlo into a corner, even when he didn’t notice it. The 28-year-old wasn’t even a blip on his radar. Actually, Charlo wasn't the only one who had no idea who Tszyu was. Most of the division’s top names were clueless about him as a fighter. It wasn’t entirely their fault.
