Tim Tszyu's Title Fight Against Virgil Ortiz Cancelled Due to Head Injury

Posted : 31 May 2024

Tim Tszyu's anticipated WBA super-welterweight interim world title fight against Virgil Ortiz has been canceled due to medical concerns stemming from a severe head injury. Tszyu sustained the injury during his first career loss to Sebastian Fundora in March, where he collided with Fundora's elbow, resulting in a deep gash that impaired his vision throughout the bout.

 

Originally scheduled to face Ortiz in August on a high-profile card headlined by Terence Crawford and Israil Madrimov, Tszyu received medical advice advising him to allow additional time for his head wound to heal. The cancellation was confirmed by his promoter, No Limit Boxing, via social media, citing the need for Tszyu to prioritize his recovery.

 

A victory against Ortiz would have positioned Tszyu for potential future matchups against top contenders such as Madrimov, Crawford, or even the winner of Fundora's upcoming bout against Errol Spence. However, Tszyu's focus now shifts to his recovery, with hopes of returning to the ring once he has fully healed from his injury.
