Boxing: Tim Tszyu caught up with Main Event's Ben Damon ahead of his big fight for the IBF Super Welterweight world title against Bakhram Murtazaliev
'Dad is coming to this fight' | 04:47 Tim Tszyu has revealed he is still trying to offer mum Natasha a ringside seat for Sunday’s IBF world title blockbuster in Orlando , Florida – especially given she is now barred from all headliners involving younger brother Nikita.
TSZYU V MURTAZALIEV | Tim Tszyu faces off against undefeated IBF super welterweight champ Bakhram Murtazaliev | SUN 20 OCT 10:30AM AEDT |It will be the first time the boxing legend, who now lives in Russia, has seen his son fight live since way back in 2016, when he jetted into Sydney for Tim’s debut against Zorran Cassady at the SCG.
He revealed that as the intensity of his fights have increased over this year, Natasha still travels to events, and enjoys the fight week build, but now prefers to watch the fights themselves from a nearby venue.It comes as the 29-year-old revealed younger brother Nikita has even gone so far as to ban both mum and sister Anastasia from his own fights as he now prepares to enter the world rankings.
Kostya had not seen his eldest son throw down since flying into Sydney a day before his professional debut, sitting ringside the following evening … and then becoming a screaming, pointing, “chaotic” spectator. It meant he missed a night in which Tim, while trying to unify, suffered the first loss of his professional career, after fighting for some 30 minutes bloodied by a serious head cut suffered at the end of the second round.
