timmy chancing that smoke

154 along with 115 showing how boxing should be
Am I the only one thinking Harrison should be the favourite?
How extraordinary is the following scenario:
Harrison could train a fighter to fight for an undisputed title & put himself in position to fight for an undisputed title, all in the same year
Good tough matchup for Tim who probably needs the contest for experience. Taking a big risk considering what is on the line but hopefully it does him more good in the long run. I like Harrison and hope he does well.
If only all sub fights resulted in this type of quality match up. That's the boxing world we need. Safe to say Harrison with his style looked well into the Gausha fight. But Tim is going to need to work smart coming in here, Harrison not only can move very well but the man can crack a bit. I only hope this does not mean we've gone from postponed to now canceled regarding Charlo :-X. Still want that fight too ;D
if tony wins we could get a trilogy with jermell
half the job doneQuote:

undercard confirmed: nikita tszyu v bo belbin, sam goodman v tj doheny & paulo aokuso v yunieski gonzalez
I've come around to Tszyu tko 10. Worst thing about this will be the start time I imagine.
issac hardman v rohan murdock added to the card
Finally figured it was on Showtime. One thing I'm realizing with these fights held in Australia, Japan or Dubai comes down to missing work to tune in :-X.
This is on at the weekend not Wednesday when Australia seem to have their big fights.Quote:

After rewatching the harrison/ charlo matches, its really hard to isolate a tactic that harrison actively does well. He's got a tight defense (mostly) and can put out a sharp counter here and there. I can definitely see him putting Tim on his ass, considering the other counter Tim walked into. Still it did seem that much of the first Charlo fight, harrison spent waiting and being tentative about Charlo landing a big shot. Nibbling away with a jab that Charlo for the most part shrugged off while trying to land a bomb. The second fight appeared to be a lot of same with the exception of Charlo find the the angle on that lead left hook that split Harrison's defense. Harrison seems to wait and try to conserve himself for the later rounds where he knows he fades. Can Tim mimic that lead hook? definitely. Can he shrug off the Jab? probably, looking at the size disparity. Can he get the movement he needs to deliver the goods? Punch as hard? Solve enough of the harrison puzzle to stay close? Not sure about the last three but they don't seem as much of a daunting task as before. Can't say you have me putting my money on Tszyu but I can say I've taken it off of Harrison.Quote:

Really a solid breakdown there. I do think maybe the crack of Harrison can be a little underrated and you're right about the waiting. He has had gaps of fighting to preserve his reserve and I just think Tszyu will not afford him the time and more importantly gradual space after the initial couple rounds. Granted, that puts Tszyu there to be on the end of top jab of Harrison and follow up right but Tim won't just walk in with his doors open. Have to step with a mobile Harrison cutting him down forcing inside exchanges. Time will do well ring center. Could be a tale of two fights scenario, Harrison early but can see Tzsyu grinding him down as has often been the story of Harrison. Really looking forward to this one.Quote:

imam khataev is on this card, artur vibes
Harrison's jab & counters will win this fight
Finally a match worth watching. I really like team Tszyu. Its good with some boxning outside the US, i recon its good for the sport. Happy its in Australia. Professional boxing is bannad in Scandinavia.
You have Badou Jack.Quote:
