But he was also asked about a certain Jermell Charlo \u2014 who Tszyu was scheduled to fight in 2023 before the American broke his hand in training.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Wearing a shirt with the slogan \u201cUnfinished Business\u201d, Tszyu continued: \u201cOf course I\u2019m chasing Charlo. That\u2019s unfinished business.<\/p>\n
\u201cYears and years it\u2019s been spoken about already. At one time we were both the red-hot people at 154, so that\u2019s why it needs to be made. I\u2019m welcoming it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Reclaiming a world title would be a sensational turnaround for Tszyu \u2014 who was written off by many following back-to-back losses two years ago.<\/p>\n
After suffering a close split decision defeat to Sebastian Fundora, he was stopped by Bakhram Murtazaliev inside three rounds in October 2024.<\/p>\n
A second loss to Fundora in July last year threatened to be the end for Tszyu, but a run of three successive wins that culminated in a career-best triumph over Spence has resurrected his hopes of a second world championship.<\/p>\n
