The first knockdown came in round two with a strong counter left hook sending Tszyu to the canvas. Tszyu showed the incredible grit that’s made him a superstar in his native Australia to rise to his feet, but he was ultimately sent back to the ground twice in the round.
The unanimous decision win was in front of a nearly sold out crowd, live from the Save Mart Center in Fresno, California and was broadcast worldwide on DAZN.
The fight was the main support bout to clash between junior middleweights Tim Tszyu and Carlos Ocampo at the Gold Coast Convention Centre in Broadbeach, Queensland, Australia on Sunday afternoon local time.
Tszyu started uncharacteristically fast, swarming Ocampo and trading bombs in close as he wobbled the visitor before smashing a right hand into his temple that crumpled him to the canvas.
