<p>This Wednesday, livewire Aussie boxer Tim Tszyu will be back in action when he headlines an entertaining card at the TikTok Entertainment Centre in Sydney.</p> <p><a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/boxing/grade-a-fights/tim-tszyu-v-anthony-velazquez-9863365">Tszyu is set to square off against up-and-coming American Anthony Velazquez</a> at a catchweight of 157 pounds.</p> <p>There’s no doubt about it, the once dominant Tszyu is on a serious slide. The 31-year-old has lost three of his last four fights after previously being 24-0 in his professional career.</p> <p>Can “The Phoenix” rise from the ashes and return to the winner’s circle against Velazquez? Or has father time finally caught up with the Sydney local?</p> <p>Looking for expert analysis, predictions and betting tips for the blockbuster battle? Check out our Tszyu vs Velazquez Preview and Prediction below.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Tim Tszyu vs Anthony Velazquez Prediction</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>A quick look at the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/boxing/grade-a-fights/tim-tszyu-v-anthony-velazquez-9863365">H2H odds</a> and you’ll see Tszyu is the overwhelming favourite going into this bout.</p> <p>The beauty of boxing however is that is just takes one shot, one slip up, a single chink in the armour, to completely flip the script.</p> <p>While his hands will be up, there’s no doubt Tszyu’s confidence is down at the moment. Three losses in his last four, have ended his once perfect professional record and left many questioning his future in the sport.</p> <p>His opponent Anthony Velazquez will want to capitalise on these psychological scars and add to his own impressive 18-0-1 record. A record which contains 15 KOs.</p> <p>Don’t forget that Tszyu is somewhat of a sleep specialist himself, with 18 of his 25 wins coming via KO and as impressive as Velazquez's record is right now, he has never faced an opponent of Tim’s calibre.</p> <p>There’s an old adage in the world of sport that form is temporary, but class is permanent and despite his recent results, Tszyu’s record speaks for itself.</p> <p>There’s been plenty of bark from Velazquez and his camp, but we have doubts about just how much bite he’ll be bringing on Wednesday night.</p> <p>Fighting in front of his own, the much more experienced Tszyu should have far too much quality for his American opponent.</p> <p><strong>Prediction:</strong> Tim Tszyu.</p> <p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> Tszyu to win via decision.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>How to Watch Tim Tszyu vs Anthony Velazquez</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>There are two ways for everyone in Australia to watch Tim Tszyu vs Anthony Velazquez.</p> <p>The entire main card will be shown live on both Kayo Sports Pay-Per-View and Main Event TV Pay-Per-View.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Tim Tszyu vs Anthony Velazquez Date and Time</h2> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Date:</strong> Wednesday, December 17, 2025.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Start time:</strong> 7:00pm AEDT.</p> <p><strong>Location:</strong> TikTok Entertainment Centre, Sydney.</p> <p><strong>Where to watch: </strong>Kayo Sports and Main Event TV.&nbsp;</p>
