    Default Kostya not done yet!

    Reported yesterday in Australian newspapers, Kostya Tszyu would consider a big money fight against any of the top fighters at 147lb, i guess that means Cotto or Margarito if they win their upcoming fights.
    If that doesn't happen perhaps Mosley would be an option?
    Opinions? He is 38 in October.

    I THINK HE'D NEED A TUNE UP FIGHT FIRST.
    KT IS MY FAVOURITE FIGHTER BUT I DONT WANNA SEE HIM GET HURT.
    I THINK THE FIGHT SHOULD BE IN OZ, COS HE NEVER REALLY HAD A BIG FIGHT IN HIS HOME COUNTRY.
    hE SHOULD FIGHT MOSELY OUT OF YOUR OPTIONS.

    I think we are both huge KT fans but i really don't want to see him make a fool of himself, Mosley might be the better go. I think he should forget about it.

    i think he should give ballroom dancing a go professionaly.......

    But seriously u are right, he may be better off staying retired or figting another older champ. Castillo after the hatton fight, or imagine kt v katsidis at 140......

    I think he would beat Margo but Cotto at this stage of his career could be trouble! Love to see him fight Mosley!!!

    Make that a third. His my fave fighter. Agree with Eagle, needs a tune up fight first. Mosely would be a 'safer' option, yeah!

    He's been away a long while now! If he chose to comeback he would definitely need a tune up or two.

    I think Margarito would be his best option

    Maragrito might be too big. I think Mosely is the option, KT has a good record against similiar size fast opponents.
    I think he should fight Katsidis at 140! Seriously.

    Katsidis would be a great match-up, big name for Michaels record if he won.
    I agree Tszyu did well against smaller faster opponents but that was an active Kostya.
    I think Margarito would be right in the pocket for Tszyu.

    In all reality I'd prefer Kostya to hang em up. He has nothing left to prove. He's already a probable Hall Of Famer!

    I think he is done. As far as being an effective champion now.

    I just wish he got some big fights between 97 and 2003. De la Hoya, Mosely, etc Would have been great.

    If Tzyu is serious he needs a tune up fight first that is for sure. I don't think he could beat any of the big names at 147. Honestly people what the hell makes you think he could beat Margarito? I doubt he could hurt Margarito, and he damn sure couldn't outwork him to win a decision or try to outbox the bigger, longer reached Margarito, from the outside. Margarito would pound him pretty bad I think.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    Margarito would CRUSH Tszyu,in 8 rounds MAX,and I'd bet a CC for everyday Im online. What silly nonsense,Tszyus weakenss was pressure,a la Phillips and Hatton,and Margarito is pure pressure,bigger,stronger. Tszyu was better v boxes but there is no reason for him to come back,he has nothing to prove. I don't think he could hang with the top 147pounders!
