Tim Tszyu will enjoy his fourth straight Showtime headliner, this time as a full titleholder.
The American cable network confirmed its stateside coverage of Tszyu’s upcoming WBO junior middleweight title defense versus streaking contender Brian Mendoza. The previously announced bout will headline a Showtime Boxing International show on October 14 from Gold Coast Convention Centre in Broadbeach, Australia (October 15, locally).
As previously reported by BoxingScene.com, the show will also include a 12-round featherweight bout between unbeaten Sam Goodman (15-0, 7KOs)—the IBF junior featherweight mandatory challenger—and former title challenger Miguel Flores (25-4-1, 12KOs).
