Overview
- No Limit Boxing set the bout for Friday, January 16, 2026 at a 157 lb (71.5 kg) catchweight, with the venue to be announced.
- Brisbane and the Gold Coast are leading options as both camps prefer a neutral location over Sydney or Melbourne.
- The grudge traces to Michael Zerafa withdrawing from a 2021 matchup with Tim Tszyu, which intensified tensions between the camps.
- Plans for a late-2025 meeting were pushed back after Tszyu’s recent accident in Sydney, where he was T-boned and diagnosed with whiplash.
- Tszyu enters unbeaten at 11-0, while Zerafa is 34-5 and coming off a quick stoppage to claim the WBO Inter-Continental middleweight title.
