What time Tszyu v Harrison will actually happen, full undercard and what the bookies are saying

Australian star Tim Tszyu will put his perfect 21-0 record — and all his unified world title dreams — on the line when he hosts dangerous former world champion Tony Harrison (29-3-1) in Sydney on Sunday.

Detroit native Harrison is the only man ever to beat ‘undisputed’ champ Jermell Charlo — the fighter Tszyu was supposed to meet in January before injury struck the veteran.

The winner of Tszyu v Harrison will therefore fight Charlo for all the belts with the title of interim WBO super welterweight champion at stake in Sunday’s fight.

Here’s everything you need to know.
