Tim Tszyu showcased a dominant performance against Joe Ispencer, winning their IBO Intercontinental Super Welterweight Title Match by TKO in Round 4 on Saturday at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre in Australia. Tszyu, a former WBO champion, bounced back after a difficult couple of years, which included losing his title due to a cut and a defeat against IBF Titleist Bakuram Murtazaliev.
In the first round, Ispencer started strong, but Tszyu got into his rhythm in the second and third rounds, effectively using a left hook. By Round 4, Tszyu landed a significant combination that overwhelmed Ispencer, forcing the referee to stop the fight. Afterward, Tszyu called out Keith Thurman for a potential matchup in Australia, aiming for a major event in the country as promoters are already looking to schedule big fights. The match card included several other bouts, with notable results including Liam Talivaa defeating Brand Glach by TKO and Endley Savetra defeating Mikkel Nielsen by TKO in the eighth round.
