There were difficulties in the fight, I tried to act actively. I didn’t think the fight would end so soon, this guy is a fighter. I had the chance to fight in front of my fans, thank you to everyone who came to support me. We will fight for four belts,” Tszyu said in the ring after the fight.
During his career, the Australian won 23 times (17 by KO) in the professional ring, without suffering a single defeat. Charlo is the undisputed light middleweight champion of the world.
