Tim Tszyu has retained his WBO super-welterweight crown with a tense and electrifying points win over tough American Brian Mendoza. Tszyu captivated a sellout crowd at the Gold Coast Convention Centre with one of the most polished displays of his still-undefeated 24-fight career to record a unanimous victory on Sunday.
Nikita Tszyu opens up about surprising obsession. The 28-year-old son of a gun once again called out former undisputed divisional king Jermell Charlo after the three judges awarded him the fight 116-111, 116-112 and 117-111. “Charloooooooo. Charloooooo, where you at?” Tszyu beamed after dominating his first defence since being elevated from interim to full WBO world champion on October 1. Charlo has twice cancelled on Tszyu since the pair were slated to fight for all four belts in January.
