American boxer Erickson Lubin refused negotiations on a fight with Tim Tszyu
American boxer Erickson Lubin refused to fight against World Boxing Organization (WBO) world champion Australian Tim Tszyu. Aus Boxing reports this on social networks X (formerly Twitter).
According to the source, the reason was failed negotiations. It is noted that Tszyu’s representatives are currently organizing a fight against Americans Terence Crawford and Virgil Ortiz. Both athletes are interested in the fight.
On October 1, 2023, Tim Tszyu received the WBO world title in the weight category up to 69.9 kilograms without a fight. This happened after the former holder of the belt, American Jermell Charlo, began a fight with Mexican Saul Alvarez in Las Vegas, in which he lost.
29-year-old Tim Tszyu is the son of former absolute world boxing champion Kostya Tszyu. Tim has 24 victories, 17 of which were knockouts. In his professional career, he did not suffer a single defeat.
