    Boxing champion Tim Tszyu rushed to hospital after shock dog attack – putting world title fight in jeopardy

    BOXING champ Tim Tszyu was rushed to hospital after a shock dog attack that plunges his world title fight into jeopardy. The 28-year-old underwent emergency surgery after his right arm was reportedly savaged by an animal at a barbecue on Sunday.
    Tszyu was savaged by a dog in a shock attack
    It has thrown his fight against Mexican Carlos Ocampo in just three weeks into serious doubt.
    Boxing fans fear the Gold Coast clash may not go ahead after the son of legendary boxer Kostya Tszyu was attacked.
    However, his camp has insisted he will be fit enough to take on his opponent despite his wounds from the dog bite.
    Tsyzu’s manager, Glen Jennings, said in a statement: “The wound was superficial. The post-surgical report is all good.
    “There is no doubt that Tim will be ready and 100 per cent healthy and focused to take on Carlos Ocampo on June 18.”
    No Limit Boxing CEO George Rose is also betting that the battle on June 18 will still go ahead.
    He said in a statement: “Like everyone, I was shocked and worried when I first heard the news.
    “It’s certainly not the ideal preparation anytime a fighter ends up in hospital a few weeks out from world title fight but the best news right now is that Tim is doing ok.

    “He has the best and most experienced team around him in world boxing.
    “They have reassured me he’ll be more than ready on June 18 to take on Ocampo. If they’re confident, I’m confident.”
    “There is no doubt that Tim will be ready and 100 per cent healthy and focused to take on Carlos Ocampo on June 18.”
    It was set to be Tszyu’s last fight before his Las Vegas showdown with undisputed super welterweight king Jermell Charlo, who has delayed it twice due to an injured hand.
    Taking on Ocampo marks Kostya’s first clash with a Mexican fighter and he is keen to recreate his famous father’s streak of success.
    He said in a previous interview: “The Tszyu legacy, we’re 5-0 against the Mexicans.
    “For me growing up and being a lover of this sport, watching the rivalries – Erik Morales, Barrera, the big Mexican fights like that – I’ve always wanted to test myself.
    “So I’m quite honoured to be able to fight against a Mexican. It’s going to be a tough task so hopefully my hands are ready.”
    Kostya, who has held the world title since March, described his opponent as the “perfect test” for him. More

    Eddie Hearn pushed back against the claim but Fury’s promoter George Warren has since confirmed an offer had been formally sent.
    And with conversations still ongoing, Froch has had his say on the saga.
    When speaking on his YouTube channel, the former super-middleweight world champion admitted that he is growing frustrated with the Gypsy King.
    He said: “I’m starting to get a little bit wound up. I’m good friends with him, I’ve got a lot of respect for him, what a great fighter he is, but it’s getting to the point now where I’m getting bored of his nonsense.

    “He’s now sent a contract, although Eddie Hearn has denied it, to Anthony Joshua saying ‘let’s get this fight on’.
    “We can’t just all sing to the Tyson Fury tune of ‘I’ve sent a contract, I want to fight somebody, let’s make it happen’, because it’s not realistic.
    “Let the promoters do their job, let hem get together and sort it out.”
    Fury tried to lure Joshua into a short-notice showdown in December.

    However, talks collapsed due to the quick turnaround of the fight.
    In October, Hearn told TalkSPORT: “It’s probably a bit of everybody’s fault. It’s a very complex situation for both teams, with TV networks.
    “Listen, I don’t mind saying, AJ’s just coming off a defeat, he wanted December 17, but we agreed to December 3, he would have had to get back into the gym immediately, which he was going to do.
    “I don’t sit here today, as someone who represents Anthony Joshua, devastated that fight didn’t happen.
    “He wanted to take it, so I was all in, but it was a very quick turnaround for him in a fight of that magnitude.”
    Instead, Fury faced Derek Chisora at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. More
