Unbeaten Australian Tim Tszyu (21-0, 15 KOs) commented on the announcement of his next fight, in which his opponent on March 12 will be ex-world champion from the USA Tony Harrison (29-3-1, 21 KOs), and the vacant title will be at stake “Interim” WBO junior middleweight champion (up to 69.9 kg).
Recall that at the end of January, Tim was scheduled to fight against the absolute division champion Jermell Charlo, but he was injured, and the meeting had to be postponed for an indefinite period.
Charlo is required to prove injury – they can take the WBO title
“Harrison was the best option out there, and I’m at a stage in my career where I really don’t care who’s up against me in the ring. I am ready to endure them all,” Tszyu said.
“In every fight you take, everything is on the line and you are only one hit away from going back to rock bottom. Everything is at stake in this game of chance, but that’s what I do. This is boxing. This is part of my career, and I am, first of all, a fighter, ”Tim added philosophically.
