The other guy just had Tszyu's number. He took advantage of Tszyu's lack of footwork and head movement and Tim was a sucker for that left hook.

I've seen a lot of guys start dropping off after a loss like this.
Hock, I agree with you. A beatdown like this sometimes ends a boxer's career. I read this week that Murtazaliev had broken the knuckle on his pinky finger on his right hand two weeks before the fight. That's why he was throwing so many left hooks.

Yes a slow weekend the American card seems to be a prospect card with a few White prospects on it but I will probably pass on watching it over the World Series. If there is a violent knockout or a brilliant performance I could review the fight as I have DAZN(well worth the money for the boxing and NFL in Canada).

On Saturday the main event is essentially a semi final to a Saudi sweepstakes fight against a champion there. Previous to the recent form of Prograis I would say the fight is a near coin flip but Prograis has looked poor and is 35 and probably fading. So Catteral should win this one going away but that's only on the form sheet. The rest of the card is essentially a prospect card but has some interesting White prospects.
