Nikita Tszyu<\/a> declared he wants to "get bloody" in his upcoming fight against Danilo Creati on April 24.<\/p>\n

Tszyu will look to defend his Australian super welterweight title in what is his first match since his brutal victory over Dylan Briggs in Newcastle last year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Creati, who remains unbeaten in the super welterweight division, has not registered a victory since his defeat to Cameron Hammond in 2022, with his current professional record standing at 8-1-1 (1 KO).<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old declared he would target Tszyu's "fragile" jaw in their upcoming fight, comparing his rival's privileged upbringing to that of Ivan Drago from Rocky IV.<\/p>\n

"He's a human being like everyone," the 34-year-old said at the press conference on Thursday.<\/p>\n

"He's fragile. His chin is fragile, so we're going to go for it.<\/p>\n

"I see Nikita born in the right place with the right surname with the right system in place… the best chefs, the best doctors.<\/p>\n

"I've got this romantic visualisation of me raising my hands and taking what's mine."<\/p>\n

Mocking his rival's declaration, Tszyu responded: "Aim right here, on the left side.<\/p>\n

\ufeff"Come on, go for it."<\/p>\n

\"Tszyu<\/p>\n

\ufeff"It's a false sense of security for them," the Australian boxing champion continued.<\/p>\n

"I'm happy for them to have that last little win, that hope that they can win, and then I'm going to snatch it off them."<\/p>\n

Fighting in Las Vegas last month, Tszyu's brother Tim<\/a> suffered a split decision loss to Sebastian Fundora, losing his WBO light-middleweight title in a bloody encounter at T-Mobile arena.<\/p>\n

Tszyu admitted seeing the bloody encounter "was quite arousing" and hopes to replicate the "messiness" in his upcoming fight at the Hordern Pavilion.<\/p>\n

"Seeing all the blood, it was quite arousing for me," Tszyu said.<\/p>\n

"I'm attracted to that kind of gruesomeness. If we can get that happening in this fight, I'm happy for it.<\/p>\n

"I'm happy to be cut. I would love for there to be a messiness. I would love to stain the ring. I would love to stain my boxing shorts and his boxing shorts…. Let's bring a war.<\/p>\n

"I have nothing against you (Creati)\u2026 We're just in a sport where we're out here to kill each other.<\/p>\n

"Let's get bloody."<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Creati replied: \ufeffI'm really keen to go for a fight like that.<\/p>\n

"I loved that fight… I never step back."<\/p>\n

Tszyu, who will enter the ring undefeated after eight professional fights, vowed to reclaim his title in a knockout win, refusing to let his fate be decided by a judging panel.<\/p>\n

"It's something my dad has always taught me," he explained.<\/p>\n

"In order to be in full control in this sport, you have to win by KO.<\/p>\n

"You can't let the judges decide your fate.<\/p>\n

"That's something that has always stuck with me ever since the amateur days."<\/p>\n

\"Nikita<\/p>\n

The \ufeff26-year-old said Creati will not "be an easy stoppage", revealing he is prepared for the possibility of a distance fight.<\/p>\n

"He's going to bring a very tough fight\u2026 in the aspect of I need to be thinking and he's not easy to be hit. He's not going to be an easy stoppage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

"He's got that kind of awkward style that could well just go into the distance. This could be one of my distance fights and I'm prepared for that."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
