The eldest son of former undisputed light welterweight champion Kostya Tszyu, 24-year-old -old Tim (12-0, 10 KOs) headlines his first pay-for-view card when he challenges Camilleri (17-5-1, 8 KOs).

Both men came in slightly overweight at the first time of asking for Wednesday's fight at The Star in Sydney.

Camilleri removed his underwear immediately and then made the limit, Tszyu did likewise around ten minutes later.

Beating Camilleri is the first leg of a proposed four-fight plan to clear out the Australian competition for Tszyu, with Michael Zerafa, Dwight Ritchie and former WBO welterweight champion Jeff Horn also on the hit list.

"You've got to be number one in Australia, you've got to test yourself here," Tszyu told AAP.

"It's like climbing a mountain, you can't go straight to the top, you've got to walk, run whatever you've got to do, but you've got to slowly get up there, that's the plan."

Tszyu's manager Glen Jennings has made no secret of the plan, but stressed his charge wasn't looking past Camilleri.

"We've got some big fights in front of us, people may think we are overlooking stuff, we aren't," Jennings told AAP.

"We know Joel Camilleri is a good fighter and Tim has got to to take care of him Wednesday night and do it in a very bold fashion.

'Then we'll move on and we've got a bit of a plan moving forward.

"But the day will come overseas, we're looking forward to that, there's already an option for Russia and there is already an option for the US."

Camilleri, who is the betting outsider, believes his experience and pressure will be too much for Tszyu.

"Get on the inside, work, show my toughness and I'll get the job done," Camilleri told AAP.

World ranked cruiserweight Jai Opetaia and former league star, Justin Hodges will feature on the undercard, along with the boxing debut of former UFC fighter Ross Pearson.
