The search for Tim Tziu to return to the top of the Featherlight Medium Boxing Division will start on April 6 in Newcastle, and his camp confirms the fight against the highly advertised American perspective Joseph Spencer.

The 30-year-old Australian tries to jump back after a mutilating career of 2024, in which he suffered a failure that dropped him from international boxing radar.

In March, Tsyza (24-2, 17 KO) gave up his world medium WBO title with a fractional loss from Sebastian Funda in Las Vegas, in a fight in which he suffered a nasty cut above his left eye, which eventually confined his vision. At that time, he was unable to bounce against the IBF Super Welter champion Bakhram Murtazaliev in Orlando six months later. Tziu was abandoned four times in the first three rounds and seemed shy and inactive in shock, one -sided romance.

The Promotional Team Tziu, No Limit, warned their man against meeting Spencer so quickly, but Sydneysider remained adamant that he needed “straight back to the fire”, desperate efforts to resuscitate a boxing career.

“This is my redemption trip,” said Tsyzyu. “I come back stronger, more hungry and ready to prove a point. There is no inside. We chose a deep end. No safety network, no sultry -up. Sink or swimming. I am here to say a statement. If I have to go through the fire to go back

“Fighting back home in Australia, and especially in Newcastle, does it even more unique. It was too long and I can’t wait to enter this ring, feel the energy of the home and bring it for my fans. “

The 24-year-old Spencer (19-1, 11 KO) is a nine-time American champion, who recently entered a conversation to fight the Division Stud Fund. Spencer won both fights in 2024 in a clinical way, first with a knockout against Janer Gonzalez, and then by the decision of the majority over Miguel Angel Hernandez.

“I have been watching Tych for a long time; His style, his mentality. The guy is a real warrior, “said Spencer. “He is a kind of warrior who does not withdraw. He takes all the newcomers, without excuses, he just gets in and fighting.

“You look at what he did by changing opponents, taking risks, he is built for it. This is a kind of warrior I respect. But I come to pull him out. I’m not here to just share the ring with it. I come to win. “

Spencer was previously a witness to Tziu up close, fighting and defeated Ravshan Hudayynazarov Uzbekistan at Undercard of Tsyzyu-Terrell Gausha in Minneapolis three years ago, it was Australia’s debut on American land.

On April 6, between Tsyza and Spencer will take place in Newcastle Entertainment Center, 100 kilometers north of Sydney. It is expected that it will take place on Sunday afternoon and will be broadcast live to the United States in the evening of April 5 (ET).

Deontay Wilder rejected as a “basic fight” by 13-loss ponderous weight

Deontay Wilder vs Derek Chisora

Deontay Wilder is an basic fight and is not a solid option for the Svansong of the former pretender for a heavyweight title with thirteen losses.

This is the view of Derek Chisora, who is currently looking for his 50th and last opponent. Chisora ​​excluded herself in the face of Wilder after the American lost to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang.

“I don’t want an basic fight and I want a strenuous fight. I want to wake up in the morning and train. When you fight basic fights, you don’t train. There is no fear, “Chisora ​​said TNT Sports at the Beterbiv vs Bivol 2 party.

“I want a more complex fight [than Deontay Wilder]. I want to wake up in the morning, train and do what I have to. But I don’t want to cheat. I want a more complex fight, “the former contender for the WBC heavyweight title added two times.

“Del Boy” is currently in three winning series since losing to Tyson Fury [via TKO] For the third time in December 2022, he joined forces with Queensberry promotions during his farewell route, which was much more effective than expected.

Wins on Gerald Washington and Joe Joyce led to another victory over Otto Wallin at the beginning of this month. In addition, promoter Frank Warren has planned something special for Chisory’s retirement fight.

“It will be huge. We are working on something. We sit in the next few weeks and cross the line. Everyone will love it – said the head of Queensberry.

In the case of excluding a “brown bomber” and canceled April, the former heavyweight champion WBC has few options. The collision with Anthony Joshua was blown out of the water through an unfathomable plan so that the rivals could share the bill, and not immediately face.

Wilder lost to the Parker when Joshua defeated Wallin, leaving the main event fell into a stack. Whether Joshua vs. Wilder can be resuscitated, there is really Alalshikh to Turki and whether he is ready to sit cash for a fight, which should be seven years ago.

The talks collapsed in 2018, which was only described by World Boxing News in cooperation with the manager of Wilder, Shelly Finkel, who remained with a bitter taste in his mouth, when Joshua decided to face Aleksander Povetkin.

Joshua and Eddie Hearn ran circles around Finkel, when Modern Yorker tried to agree to the Showtime hit worth $ 50 million, which did not go to the line. Finkel and Wilder then accepted a springy start in Wembley before WBA ordered mandatory and AJ Bail.

Undoubtedly, interest remains, but both warriors see how their careers fall – more than others – it can be a mismatch.

Jim Lampley praises the competition Dmitry Bivol-Artur Beterbiew, but it’s fine with David Benavidez the next

Jim Lampley, a long -term voice of HBO boxing, is pursuing in praise for the competition between Dmitryjum Bivol and Artur Beterbiew.

Bivol won on Saturday a rematch from Beterbaview through the decision of the majority, two judges who see her 116-112 and 115-113, while the third one even had it in 114-114, which is the opposite of identical results in favor of Beterbaiew in the first fight.

Lampley, appearing At the Ariel Helwani show About conversations His upcoming bookHe noticed the equality of competition, but also the action – something that many would say, do not compare themselves to the best battles in history.

“People ask me:” Does it grow to Gatti-Ward and Barrera-Morale levels in terms of combat intensity? “-said Lampley. “I say that.”

Lampley said that he would be open to Bivol, who would fight the remaining remaining contender, instead of entering directly into a rubber match with Beterbał.

“It’s sincere to go to [David] Benavidez is fighting, “Lampley said. “Not all trilogies must take place 1-2-3, in the next order.”

Indeed, Muhammad Ali fought 13 times between his first and the second matches with Joe Frazier, and another four times before Hell’s “Transfa in Manila”. Evander Holyfield took a ephemeral fight between his first and second duel with Riddick Bowe and the two more between the second and third (although his trilogy with John Ruiz, half a decade later, was 1-2-3).

While Benavidez was in a super medium weight, he was refused to fight the “Canelo” Saul Alvarez. Benavidez deserved the title shot among pounds for the best pounds with victories over Caleb Plant and Demetrius Andrade at 168 pounds, as well as Oleksandr Gvozdyk and David Morrell in 175.

Whether Bivol and Beterbavów fought for the third time, then Benavidez would have to take a side or backward step to fight Callum Smith or other opponent. Smith defeated Joshua Batsi on Undercard Beterbaviev-Bivol II to win the ephemeral WBO title. This, like the secondary stripes of WBA and WBC, which is the owner of Benavidez, has him in line as a compulsory pretender for Bivol, a novel unquestioned master. Michael Eifert, lightweight massive weight IBF No. 1, also awaits a shot.

“These two guys [Bivol and Beterbiev] They gave themselves a lot and showed their commitment to the fight against the two fights that they fought with each other, said Lampay. “If any of them wants to pay attention to another fight and get involved in another enterprise, I definitely support it. They must have the right to rule their career as they want. “

The latter line is contrary to something that Beterbiv said after a rematch, when he was asked if he wanted the trilogy: “I didn’t even want a rematch. It wasn’t my choice. “

If Beterbiev and Bivol are to fight for the third time and maintain the quality of their competition, time is significant for Beterbaview, who at the age of 40 did not close the rematch as much as in the first fight and could still refuse and could reject.

Lampley also feels fine with the trilogy: “If we go to the third fight between Beterbiev and Bivol, I’m ready for it too.”
