Tim Tszyu wins Australian 154lb title

By Ray Wheatley – World of Boxing

IBF #15, WBA #15 light-middleweight Tim Tszyu (12-0, 10 KOs) clearly outpointed Joel Camaleri (17-5-1, 8 KO’]s) over ten rounds to become the Australian 154 pound champion on Wednesday at the Star City Casino Sydney, NSW, Australia. Tszyu took control of the bout in round three and connected with accurate combinations consistently on the durable Camileri. Scores 99-91, 99-91, 98-92.

”I’m the best in the country,” Tszyu said afterward. ”I just defeated a champion … all my respect to Joel Camilleri. He’s a tough man, and he gave me a fight. It’s a learning curve for me. I learned more in this fight than my whole career, so thank you to Joel.”

Promoter: Matt Rose, matchmaker: Stuart Duncan, Combat Sports Inspector: Dave Grainger.

Smiley went better than I expected. Made it to the 8th round and from what I head without seeing it made it a kind of competitive fight and was able to land.
He's meant to be fighting Lance Bryant in a month exactly so interesting if that goes ahead. Corner through in the towel so not sure if he too any damage

Hopefully he's not too 'beaten up' Bryant's a real 50-50 fight.

massively favoured Bryant before last night and probably still do if he's in good shape but Smiley will give it a decent crack

I think the wars are catching up with Bryant now, he's only lost to quality younger fighters though. He probably would beat smiley, with there styles it'd be an interesting a fight.

Nik the Greek is fighting  unbeaten Jai Opetaia  in Sydney July 27. Should be a cracker.

Mose Auamatagi stopped Kerry Foley in the 6th round last night.

Opetaia beats him easily imo.Wouldn't suprise me if it went the distance but I think it'll be a one-sided beatdown.
