(No Limit Boxing)
Tim Tszyu has spent all week – and many months, frankly – discussing the state of his career and his upcoming fight against Denis Nurja, and the former junior middleweight titleholder may be all talked out.
On Friday, the fighters weighed in without incident for Saturday’s middleweight main event clash at WIN Entertainment Centre in Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia, and with only four words from Tszyu:
“Let’s get it on.”
Tszyu, 26-3 (18 KOs), a native of Sydney, Australia, weighed in at 71.19kg, while Nurja, 20-0 (9 KOs), an Albanian now fighting out of Italy, checked in at 71.00kg).
Tszyu continues to build back from a disastrous 1-3 stretch that saw him lose his title (and an opportunity to unify) in a split decision to Sebastian Fundora in March 2024 and fall by stoppage to Fundora in their rematch 16 months later.
Although unbeaten, Nurja is also untested, having never fought beyond the sixth round and never faced an opponent remotely near Tszyu’s class.
In the co-main bout, Australia’s Sam Goodman, 21-1 (8 KOs), will face Argentina’s Rodrigo Fabian Ruiz in a junior featherweight title eliminator. Goodman weighed in at 55.30kg and Ruiz at 55.28kg.
