vRinge: boxer Tim Tszyu can defend his WBO title against Briton Josh Kelly

Australian boxer Tim Tszyu may fight Briton Josh Kelly next. This became known to vRinge.

According to the source, in the near future, the World Boxing Organization (WBO) belt will be taken away from the American Jermell Charlo, and Tszyu will be transferred from interim to permanent world champion in the light middleweight division. In this case, the duel with Kelly will be the title. At the same time, earlier Kelly must defeat the Argentinean Gabriel Corso.

On June 18, Tszyu, the eldest son of the former absolute world champion Kostya Tszyu, defeated the Mexican boxer Carlos Ocampo. He knocked out the opponent in the second minute of the fight. Thus, the Australian held the first defense of the interim title.

In total, Tszyu has 23 victories in a row, 17 of which were won by knockout. In his professional career, he did not suffer a single defeat.
