Tim Tszyu, of Sydney, Australia, is a former WBO junior middleweight champion. He's the son of hall of famer Kostya Tszyu. He won the WBO interim junior middleweight title with a ninth-round TKO victory over Tony Harrison in March 2023. Three months later, he defended the belt in a first-round KO of Carlos Ocampo, and was elevated to full champion when undisputed champ Jermell Charlo moved up in weight to face Canelo Alvarez. Tszyu lost the belt in a split decision against Sebastian Fundora in March.

Tszyu has notable victories over Jeff Horn, Takeshi Inoue and Terrell Gausha, among others.
