Tszyu: Charlo is a little pussy cat
By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing
WBO #1 light middleweight Tim Tszyu says he’s disappointed that IBF, WBA, WBC light middleweight champion Jermell Charlo rejected his offer to replace injured WBO champion Brian Castano, but said he still plans to fight in the USA in March. “[Charlo] calls himself a lion, but he’s a little pussy cat, that’s all he is,” Tszyu told Foxsports.com.au. “There could be political stuff involved with it, but my main concern is to fight and not to sit around.”
He also stated, “March 19 is done. I will fight the same opponent [Terrell Gausha] the following weekend on a different show. I told the boys (promoters George and Matt Rose) to make it happen and I’m just waiting for a date. I’m just ready to go to America, that’s where I’ve always been dreaming about so I want to have a quality opponent in America.”
