Violent KO! – Video: Tim Tszyu quickly destroys Carlos Ocampo in Round 1
IMAGO / MARK EVANS

Tonight the Gold Coast Convention Centre in Broadbeach, Queensland, Australia was treated to one of boxing’s fastest rising stars, Tim Tszyu (23-0-0, 17 KOs), headlining a Showtime card with a speedy knockout of Carlos Ocampo. The brilliant display of violence only took Tim 77-seconds. Talk about a short-night at the office. Tszyu retains his Interim WBO light middleweight title, as well as his spotless record.

What happened in the fight?

Round 1: Sounds like a good atmosphere in the building, big pop for Tszyu. He starts aggressively, snapping Ocampo’s head back with repeated 1-2s. And he has Ocampo all over the place! The Mexican wobbling to the ropes! Tszyu misses with some wild shots, but then he drops Ocampo with a sharp right! Massive start! He gets up, but a left hook drops him and it’s done! HUGE statement!
