Tim Tszyu to train with Freddie Roach

Tim Tszyu, the son of former undisputed champion Kostya Tszyu, will train under the guidance of HOF coach Freddie Roach. Tszyu, 24, is the interim WBA Oceania champion. The full title of this version belongs to the eighth number of WBA rating Michael Zerafe.

“I want to see the level at which I am. I have a couple of potential rivals. Zerafa and Mundine are negotiating a duel. Zerafa must hold a belt defense against me. If they fight, I would love to meet the winner. These are big names with which I would like to meet.

“I just want to fight against big names, in big fights at big arenas. My main goal is the USA. In Australia, I don’t have many opportunities, except for a duel with Zerafa. I want to go international, go to the States and test myself at the world level,” Tszyu Jr. said.
