WBO #2, IBF #4, WBA #8, WBC #10 light middleweight Tim Tszyu (16-0, 12 KOs) will clash with IBF #15 welterweight Bowyn Morgan (21-1, 11 KOs) at the BankWest Stadium, Parramatta, NSW, Australia on Wednesday with the IBF Australasian and WBO Global titles up for grabs televised on Main Event Foxtel Pay-Per-View network.
“He’s coming to my hometown thinking he’s going to take me? There is no way I would ever allow that to happen,” said Tszyu. “That’s like saying someone is coming to your house to steal something from you. Would you defend it? Of course, you would. I am coming to defend everything I’ve got.
“I represent the last name Tszyu all around the world, in Russia and Australia, to all the diehard boxing fans from everywhere. We’re coming for the same thing. I don’t want to leave it to the judges either.
“I’ve got a big reach advantage. If he tries to box me on the outside, he won’t land a punch. Not one punch. His only option is to come forward and get inside, there’s no other option. Let’s just be sure that when he tries to come forward, he will get clocked. I’m coming for the knockout.”

Yeah that sounds about right
Tsyzu still building his resume and learning the ropes. Time will tell…
Tszyu in 2!
tsyzu need to start steping it up.start fighting top contenders
Jeff Horn was such step. Tim showed true potential in that fight. But I would still be careful when picking opponents.
Jeff Horn was a spent force after taking a beating from Terrence Crawford and his results thereafter showed that. Time will tell with Tim.
