- Date:
- Venue:
- Gold Coast Convention & Exhibition Centre in Broadbeach
Prediction: Tim Tszyu by Stoppage
Result: Tim Tszyu by Points
Tszyu recovered from a slow start to earn a points decision and defended his new belt. Unfortunately he didn’t get to earn that belt in the ring against a champion but defending it against a game fighter like Mendoza stamps him as a legit champion. Aside from Charlo, Tszyu is the best at 154 and he is a fun fighter to watch.
