Re: Kostya Tszyu Dwells on Ring Return

What about Cotto vs. Tszyu in their first fight at 147?

Be a good fight for Cotto, but I don't think Tszyu would put up much resistance @ this point!

Who's saying he could land it? he couldn't manage it against the defensless Hatton ;)

He should come back.

I think he can still beat most at 140 and 147.

Id rate hattons chin better than cottos and tszyu did land it, just not enough and didnt follow up. Tszyu can still beat alot of guys in the division, id like to see a rematch with hatton in the US.

Hatton's chin may be better than Cotto's at 140 but remember,we have yet to see Miguel@147 and Hatton was rocked to hs boots by 12ko Collazo. As for Kostya,a legend,awesome fighter,but in my opinion,took too much time off when coming back from that long layoff to beat Sharmba,very very poor tactics to fight Hatton,in the UK, on UK time and now ANOTHER long break,I don't think it bodes well. If he really wants to come back,take a tune up,see how it feels and then assess the situation.
If he jumps in the deep end straight away,and loses,whoever beats him will have their win discredited with claims that it was an aging KT etc etc

Agreee totally, i hope he retires. I would of liked to see him come back but too much time off. He said he lost desire during the prep for hattons fight which is not a good thing. He got nothin left to prove, he will go down as one of the best for sure. :coolclick:

What's that saying about it being hard to get out of bed in your silk bajamas & go running at 4am in the morning... or something like that. I think Tszyu realised this in his fight with Hatton. I think he got to used to being on top. A younger more dedicated Tszyu feel would have beaten Hatton.

Tell that to Oscar De La Hoya

Oscar never quit on his stool

Oscar did worse, he took a fucking dive against Hopkins. He had enough energy to thump the canvas but not to get up?? Please...

Tszyu gave his heart and soul against Hatton til he could go no more... DLH dived for his 20 million.

Memphis, I like Oscar DLH but if if comes to a case of who has a bigger pair of balls Tszyu or DLH there can be no contest...

Come to think of it, pretty much everyone has bigger balls than Oscar, given the running from Trinidad and the dive against b-hop. Oscar hates it in the trenches...
