Nikita Tszyu announces the birth of his first baby, a daughter named Curiosity
Don't miss out on the headlines from Boxing/MMA. Followed categories will be added to My News. Nikita Tszyu welcomed the birth of his first child late last week, a daughter named Curiosity. Tszyu and his wife, also named Nikita, confirmed the heart-warming news on Saturday night via social media. 'Curiosity Tszyu,' the boxer wrote on Instagram. 'Named after the NASA Mars Rover, Curiosity. 'Curiosity is the passion that drives us through our everyday lives. 'It is this powerful force of curiosity which has led humans to become explorers, scientists, historians & artists. 'Curiosity is the everlasting flame burning in all of us that compels us to ask questions, to wonder, to learn, to grow and to know. 'As parents, we hope our daughter's name will give her the courage and strength to explore life without fear. 'May her own curious mind be the guiding compass leading the way as she grows to understand herself and the world around her. 'As Curiosity's parents, we vow to nurture her spirit of adventure and use the principles of the Japanese Bushidō 'The Way of The Warrior' as a guide to raising her.' While older brother Tim prepares for his world title rematch against Sebastian Fundora on July 19, the intensely private Nikita kept the impending birth of his daughter a closely guarded secret. The couple were married in a surprise, low key ceremony in January, with the Nikita later revealing to CODE Sports that he made their wedding rings himself. 'I melted the silver and made it in my garage – I forged it myself,' he said. 'I did my ring and her ring. I had to do about 10 different rings because I had to shape it and everything. 'I learned the art form, or how to do it in a weekend and I got the rings created in two more days. 'I'm a smelter now.' Tszyu hasn't fought since his fight of the year win over Koen Mazoudier last August, with a hand injury keeping him sidelined at the start of the year. The 27-year-old is been slated to step back in the ring in August, with a potential showdown opposite Michael Zerafa later in the year, although nothing has been confirmed.
