Interim WBO light-middleweight champion Tim Tszyu spoke out about his win over Mexican Carlos Ocampo, recalling an incident with a dog that bit him weeks before the fight.
Errol Spence beat Ocampo in two minutes and I did it in less time. I didn’t think it would be that early because this guy (Ocampo) is a warrior. After the dog bite, I became obsessed. I feel like a pitbull.
