What's Happening?
Australian boxer Liam Paro is set to headline a world title card after No Limit Boxing secured a historic $1.1 million purse bid for his fight against IBF welterweight champion Lewis Crocker. The bid, which narrowly surpassed that of UK promoter Eddie Hearn's Matchroom, marks the largest purse win by an Australian promoter. The event is expected to take place in Australia, with potential participation from Tim or Nikita Tszyu. This development is part of No Limit's strategy to challenge UK champions and elevate Australian boxing on the global stage.
Why It's Important?
This purse bid victory is a significant milestone for Australian boxing, highlighting the growing influence and ambition of No Limit Boxing in the international arena. By securing such a high-profile
fight, No Limit is positioning itself as a formidable player against established global promoters like Matchroom. The involvement of the Tszyu brothers further underscores the potential for Australian boxers to gain international recognition and success. This event could boost the profile of Australian boxing, attract more international fights to the region, and inspire local athletes to pursue careers in the sport.
What's Next?
With the purse bid secured, No Limit Boxing is now focused on finalizing the date and venue for the fight, likely in late March or early April. The potential inclusion of the Tszyu brothers on the card adds further intrigue, as both are ranked contenders in their weight class. The outcome of this event could influence future matchups and promotional strategies, particularly if Paro or a Tszyu brother secures a victory. The success of this event could also lead to more international opportunities for Australian fighters and further collaborations with global promoters.
