Boxing: Tszyu hints at boxing return
Ah you beat me to it! I agree with you, Tszyu is a legend in my eyes. He must be pushing 40 now?
Just checked and yes he's 40! That's no age to make a comeback after a 4 year lay off! The higher weight division fighters sometimes pull it off but KT has no chance in a hot welterweight division where punches are thrown in bunches for 12 hard rounds!
I think he's overrated (still very very good) but he needs to stay retired
Tsyzu vs Hatton rematch anyone? :)
this sounds reasonableQuote:

A rematch with Hatton would make sense.
Fighting an elite fighter like Pac, Maywethare and Moseley does not and I do not think any other fight would interest him.
He won't come back.
I think he is a little overrated as well.Quote:

If he was going to return, he should have done it years ago, if he's planning on coming back as a welter, there are some other old wash outs he could fight, but he gets nothing relevant to come back to. He'd be tiny at welter.

This would be bad.Bad meaning bad not bad meaning good.
I love all the overrated opinions of a guy who fought almost 50% of all of his pro fights against World Champions. If that is overrated then how do we rate fighters at all? He won't comeback, he was done after the Hatton fight, injuries, inactivity and age had taken it's toll. People also forget he never turned pro until he was 23 with 270 amateur fights behind him. I think we only ever saw glimpses of his true brilliance in the ring. DLH, Mosley and even Mayweather had the greatest respect for him and whenever his name was mentioned as a possible opponent i reckon they were all a little wary about taking him on.
