Australia Tim Tzyu Has been on a disturbing downward route. When he stepped into the ring Sebastian Fundora In March 2023 he had no idea how drastically his fortunes were about to change. Tzyu is fighting outside of Australia for the second time and suffered a shocking and controversial defeat by Fundora. But that was just the beginning. Things were getting out of hand even further.

He was soon confronted Bakhram Murtazaliev For the IBF Super Welterweight title and, to the surprise of many, a new defeat-this time a brutal knockout on the third round suffered. Determined to turn things around, he returned to the ring in April with a dominant knockout victory in the fourth round Joseph Spencer. Redemption was his mission and a rematch with Sebastian Fundora was finally established. Planned to fight on the undercard of Manny Pacquiao vs. Mario BarriosTzyu seemed ready for a comeback. But again, disappointment was waiting for him.

After a knockdown in the first round and action-packed seven rounds, Tszyu refused to answer the 8th round starting bell, while stopping the stool, and referee Harvey Dock declared Fundora the winner by technical knockout. Now his Excellency Turki Alshikh has shared his thoughts about the performance of Tszyu, making it much worse for the man of Down Under. “I told you from the start, Tim Tzyu does not deserve to be on a Riyadh season or Ringmagazine card,” Alalshikh wrote on X in a now deleted tweet.

“He can be useful as a sparring partner for a champion in the Riyadh season,” He added a rather cruel take. The fight in MGM Grand Garden Arena finally ended with Fundora who retained his WBC Super Welterweight title – the belt he had taken in their previous collision of Tzyu. In the interview after the fight with Jim Gray, a candid Tzyu admitted that he missed the will to continue to defend himself against the towering 6-foot-6 Fundora, which looked even sharper than he had in their meeting in 2023.

Until the honor of Tszyu, despite the fact that he was falling in the first round, the Aussie landed right -handed hands in return.
