Michael Zerafa, a 14-month veteran of the ring, wants to remind fight fans that he no longer has the opportunity to become the world champion. The Melbourne middleweight has been off the radar since defeating Italian Danilo Creati in Sydney in November 2022, not by choice.

Michael Zerafa, a polarizing Aussie boxer, has sent a letter to combat fans - please take on Tim Tszyu (left). The 31-year-old said he is eager for the match to be over, but the combatants must work together for both fighters.

Michael Zerafa, an Australian boxer, says he's ready to rule as the 'true king of Australian boxing,' and he has taken a barb at bitter rival Tim Tszyu for fighting 'bums.' When Zerafa pulled out of his awaited fight with Tszyu in 2021, he was branded the most hated man in Aussie boxing, but the Melbourne middleweight has since developed a world championship strategy in the United States.

No fighter is unbeatable. Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (inset left) appeared to be on par with it going into 2022. The popular Mexican had gone 16 fights unbeaten after being outclassed by Floyd Mayweather back in 2013. He had just put together a string of victories that had seen him overthrowrown Sergey Kovalev up to become a four-weight world champion before falling back to 12 stone and defeating Callum Smith, Billy Joe Saunders, and Caleb Plant in the space of 11 months to clear out the super-middleweight division. He seemed to be at the height of his powers at 31, and virtually unstoppable. In May, it all went wrong against Dmitry Bivol (pictured).
