The previous world champion says he is finished with pre-fight talk and focused solely on July 25 in Sydney
Tim Tszyu says he has little interest in trading words with Errol Spence Jr. ahead of their July 25 fight in Sydney. The previous world champion also dismissed comments from Shakur Stevenson and insisted his focus stays on the duty in front of him.
“Nah, that’s all right. He talks it up and whatever. It’s what it’s. I’m not stepping into that style of smack anymore, you already know? I’m just here to cause pain,” said Tszyu to Jai McAllister Boxing.
Earlier within the interview, Tszyu said he believes he’s at his best when distractions are removed, and his attention is centered entirely on boxing.
“The version? Just blissful, blissful. And once I’m blissful, I feel that’s essentially the most dangerous part. You already know, whenever you’re just focused on what you bought to do and also you don’t have these other stuff coming along around you,” said Tszyu.
He was also asked about comments from Shakur Stevenson, who recently said he hopes Spence beats him. Tszyu had a temporary response for the unbeaten lightweight champion.
“It’s one other one, one other hater. What are you able to say? I actually like Shakur Stevenson, but I do rate Tank Davis higher. So yeah, just do it like that,” said Tim.
The fight shall be contested at a 158-pound catchweight. Jermall Charlo against Koen Mazoudier and Liam Wilson versus Stephen Fulton are also scheduled for the cardboard.
