Comments Thread For: Zerafa: Tszyu Has The Nerve To Say Charlo is Ducking, He's in His Own Little F------ Bubble!

[brettWall]

Zerafa was confident Harrison would annihilate Tzsyu. He's been sounding like a hater.

This is a bit like when Brook and Hearn were implying that Khan is ducking Brook to fight Canelo. It's a weird one because, he was ducking Brook but Canelo's a much more dangerous opponent so it's not exactly accurate to say 'he's fighting Canelo to avoid Brook.' It's clearly the bigger fight and he's getting more money for it.

The difference with this is, Tszyu has only just recently got in position to challenge Charlo, from what I understand Canelo wanted Jermall who wasn't ready apparently so they offered it to Jermell. He's not been ducking for years like Khan did Brook, just got a much better opportunity than a Tszyu fight and took it.

That is actually incorrect. Khan stood to make a lot more than he did against Canelo. Khan's team even acknowledged it. But yes, Khan moved up 2 weights in a meaningless fight as it's ridiculous to think you could win under such conditions to duck a stadium fight at his own weight to get away from it. Canelo took Khan to get away from Golovkin.

I understand why Tim Tszyu feels Charlo is ducking because he's been obligated to fight him but due to injury it's been unable to happen. Now Charlo gets this massive opportunity but Tszyu is left waiting in the wing.

Fan's need to look at things from the fighters perspective not our own because what's best for us isn't always what's best for boxers. Tszyu loses out on a big opportunity against Charlo so from a competitive standpoint he's going to accuse Charlo of ducking.

Do I believe Charlo ducked Tszyu? No, a better opportunity against a better fighter appeared. However, let's not pretend like Tszyu doesn't have a reason to accuse Charlo of ducking.

You don't move up 2 weights in a unwinnable fight if you're not ducking. He didn't believe he could beat Tim. I had an inkling Charlo would bail. I just thought he'd do it against another PBC LM. I never even thought about Canelo being a possibility. I know this is Canelo all over so it's not a surprise on his end. But from Charlo's it is. He thinks it's better to get knocked out for more money. I don't. I think it's a shlt fight. Completely pointless. Then you add in the 18 months out by the time it comes around and it gets even worse.

Charlo would have taken 1000 step backwards fighting Tim instead of Canelo too

Charlo ain’t no ppv star

Zerafa sounds like a very young adolescent full of animosity and jealousy
Quite sad if you ask me

I had a bit of a laugh in this one, I personally think it's like Kambosis and Tim are competing for who has the biggest image, I've seen a massive change in their demeanour and egos since they stepped onto the world stage, both went from jeans and Nikes to Cucci suits and designer sunnys, just get the fighting done guys the glory will come.

Well Tims a disciplined work horse doesn't party around ... he is already back in camp for next battle regardless of who it is. There is nothing wrong with him enjoying himself in public, Tim has always liked nice things he is just getting noticed more as he is keeping busy... Kambosis is a little show pony ... watching him train the other day I have to say he is looking as good if not better than i have ever seen him.

Yeah I don't mind the bling good on them they earned it, Ive just noticed the image and demeanour change in them as they are coming up, both hard workers and hungry more power to them. I wonder why KT is not in on the Tim show at all, I believe he doesn't go to any of his fights, just seems a bit strange.

It would be a real good pay in Aus that's what he be thinking, Zerafas career has stalled even domestically so he needs a jump start and sees Tim as a ticket, be a better fight than Ocampo and Zerafa is tough but Tim stops him.

I didn't realise he would've made more against Brook. So it's not really the same as this situation as I imagine Charlo would make more against Canelo than he would with Tszyu.

It's a weird duck from Khan, accepting a more dangerous fight for less money but I guess he figured there'll be less shame losing to Canelo and could still claim to being the UK#1 at welterweight (even though most thought it was Brook).

Would you say Charlo's ducking Tszyu or just went with the better opportunity? I think it's the latter even though Tszyu may have an element of high risk, low reward.

I know what Zerafa is up to and the whole point to his trying to instigate to get the fight
But like you mentioned , Zerafa would get stopped , I totally agree and for that I don’t think I would like to see the fight
Again , I do think he sounds very childish and desperate again signalling what you said , that his career has stalled terribly
Imo , it would be two steps backwards for Tim
