Tim Tszyu is understandable angry at the way his earned shot at unified 154 pound champ Jermell Charlo has been put on hold (for how long we do not know) – this as Charlo gets ready for his wholly unexpected, in fact you could say shocking challenge of unified super-middleweight champ Canelo Alvarez.
Junior middleweight contender Josh Kelly (14-1-1, 7 KOs) dominated the badly overmatched previously unbeaten Gabriel Corzo (18-1, 3 KOs), beating him by a one-sided twelve round unanimous decision last Saturday night at the Vertu Motors Arena in Newcastle, England.
Four-belt 154-lb champion Jermell Charlo may have missed the perfect window that he had to fight Tim Tszyu earlier this year in January before he gained more experience with impressive knockouts of former WBC junior middleweight Tony ‘Super Bad’ Harrison and the power-punching Carlos Ocampo.
Tim Tszyu says he wants to add 154-lb four-belt champion Jermell Charlo’s name to his resume after dispatching a bad-looking Carlos Ocampo in the first round last Sunday night at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre in Broadbeach, Queensland, Australia.
Unified 154 pound champ Jermell Charlo might not have liked what he saw from his upcoming challenger Tim Tszyu, but last night’s ultra-impressive, no-nonsense showing from the unbeaten Australian certainly received plenty of rave reviews.
