Tim Tszyu has called on his father Kostya to 'do some work' if he wants his son to defend a potential world title in Russia next year.
After an impressive win over Japan's Takeshi Inoue, Tszyu was guaranteed a world title shot against Brian Castano.
"I'm coming for all of you. Every, single one of you," he said after the fight.
But should he be successful in taking the Argentine's title, Tim's father has already floated a potential first defence in Russia, rather than Australia.
"My dad keeps talking about it," he said after the fight.

"Dad if you're listening, you've to organise something.
"He keeps talking it up. You've got to actually do some work."
Tszyu continued his undefeated streak, bringing his career record to 20-0-0, but saw his run of five straight TKO wins over as he was unable to find a finish.
"The guy's built like a brick wall," Tszyu said. "F---ing hit him with anything and he doesn't go down."
"I don't know, I don't think any of the heavyweights can drop him. He's like a brick wall, literally, hands up to him man. That was a f---ing warrior."

Castano will be the next proposition for Tszyu, and just like this fight was, it will be another step up in quality for the young Aussie.
The 32-year-old Argentine is undefeated, retaining his WBO light middleweight title in a draw against Jermell Charlo back in July.
Those two could run that fight back, however, so Tszyu could be waiting a while.
