Off season & boxing on

[SeaEagleRock8]

I like boxing, have done since the mid-80s. But I'm kinda hoping now that Tszyu's corner has thrown in the towel that we're going to get less boxing shoved down our throats on Fox League.

I think Jai Opetaia is clearly Australia's best, especially now Tszyu is in the repair shop, but never hear much about him and only even see bits and pieces, must all be down to who promotes him.

If Tszyu surrounds himself with a new crew, from corner to promoter, I am sure he can bounce back to his best.

Alas I think it may go the opposite way - TT is No Limits' main cash cow - if he retires, they may have to rely on even more circus shows between various footy players to make coin.

And truth be told, the best thing for Tim Tszyu would be to retire. But since when do boxers ever stick to anything like that anyway??

His old man was able to mount a very successful comeback to unify JWW after getting KTFO by Vince Phillips, but I don't know if Tim has the same strengths as his father in that respect.

It was a career-ending (& certainly confidence destroying) beatdown Bakhram dealt him. I don't know if he's got what it takes to come back from it.

Is boxing now.
Hoping to go as good if not better than his father.

Not sure if he'll retire. He certainly needs to reassess things though. The first loss was unlucky in a way, but this one was brutal. Murtaliev demolished him.
