A big evening of boxing has just ended in Australia, in the main fight of which 28-year-old Australian with Russian roots Tim (Timofey) Tszyu met with perhaps the most difficult opponent in his professional boxing career – former world junior middleweight champion Tony Harrison from the USA .
Tim confidently controlled the course of the fight from the first round, he went forward all the time, acted calmly, confidently and hit more.
In the second half of the fight, Harrison began to get more, he found his distance and the fight even leveled off for a couple of rounds, but in the ninth round Tim seriously shocked Harrison, continued to strike and with several heavy uppercuts and side kicks sent the opponent to the floor. Tony managed to get up at the count of eight, but in the opinion of the referee, he did not look capable of continuing the fight, and the referee signaled him to be stopped.
