That’s all from us. I’ll come up with a fresh piece after Tim Tszyu’s press conference, a chance for him to further appraise one of the most devastating performances in Australian boxing history.
A great day for the local boxing scene, with Sam Goodman also winning and getting his dream title shot.

Tszyu’s next opponent is Jermell Charlo. This win was a clear statement to the American that Tszyu is primed to seriously challenge for the undisputed champion tag.

Bring on Charlo
By
Somewhere in the United States, Jermell Charlo would have witnessed this.
Tszyu was meant to fight the Charlo in January. The cocky American probably wishes he was fight to take him on then.
Since then, Tszyu destroyed Tony Harrison, the only person to have defeated Charlo. And then this afternoon, a credentialled Mexican warrior wasn’t able to last two minutes.

Tszyu is going to a new level every time he steps into the ring. He may well start the fight against Charlo, pencilled in for October, as the favourite.

First, it was Sam Goodman earning a world title fight. While that bout went the entire 12 rounds - Goodman won via split decision - the judges weren’t required for what happened next.
Tszyu has shown improvement every time he has stepped into the ring, but this was something else.
What a knockout!No Limit Boxing
Ocampo didn’t know what hit him ... within seconds, it was obvious this was only going to go one way.
