    Default Kostya Tszyu Dwells on Ring Return

    Tszyu Dwells on Ring Return


    Anyone care about this?

    I'm sure that there are quite a few...the thing is...will any of it matter if he doesn't rematch Hatton?

    Tszyu never tries to avenge his losses or fight someone who gave him a rough time.

    Tszyu in the mix at 147 would be interesting. The Welter division is what the 140 was 2 years ago and the likes of Cotto moving up and a return of KT would really fill up the upper level of the division.

    Tszyu against Cotto, Mayweather, Margarito, Hatton, and even Mosely have great appeal IMO.

    I'm not sure if he could come back, he might not be the same, but it would be great for the sport if he could come back strong. A near-peak Tszyu would have a good chance at being no.1 at 147, and with his style he probably has the best chance of anyone in the world to upsetting Mayweather

    Tszyu's only hope of beating any of the premeire 147 pounders would be to knock them out since he isn't outboxing either of them. And memo to Kostya....STAY AWAY FROM BALDOMIR!!!

    The reason to come back is because true fans know he can still be a great boxing force if he works at it mentally, physically and spiritually.

    Tszyu has never been out-boxed in his life.

    He would never outbox Shane Mosley either Besides Kostya doesn't win by outboxing boxers, he uses his accuracy and timing, both of which are some of the best in the game. But he can't outbox anyone either. if he could he would have done it to Hatton or Urkal

    Tszyu's timing would be more than enough to beat shane. Tszyu wouldn't need to outbox him he can just wait for him to start throwing his 500 tickling little jabs and wing his right and it's Mosley-Forrest 1 all over again. I imagine if he did come back he would be gunning for Floyd right away though, for Kostya it would be an easier fight than some of the smaller fights at 147

    Coming back for the fans would be getting off on the wrong foot, he has to want to do it for himself now.

    I would really like to see Tsyzu retire. He is already one of the finest light-welterweight's of all time and i would be very happy to see him bow out of this sport and enjoy the rest of his life.

    I agree with you, sure it would be nice to have Tszyu back in the mix but the layoff & his current age may be to much for him to perform as his old self

    I would hate to see Tszyu retire like he just did. I mean people are going to question everything then. I think he should win one more title and then retire

    Well, he's the same age as Roy Jones Jr. and he did pretty well last night. I think after 1 or 2 tune-up fights he could be very competitive against PBF. It's been over a year since he has fought though. The thing about him moving to welter though is, he has never fought at 147 and he is almost 37 years old, a jump up in weight that late in life, sounds like an invetation to punishment. I would really like to see him in action again before finallizing my judgement. He is one of my favorite fighters of all time though, I miss seeing him in action. After all he coreographed the Judah dance!!
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Please Roy fought a nobody, Tszyu got nothing left to prove. Sure the way he went out against Hatton was disappointing but says a lot about where he is at this stage of his career
