    It stays with me as the most defining thing about Kostya Tzyu. Which isn't fair. But still.
    This will sound crazy, but i always saw the quit to hatton as a passing of the torch.
    He saw hattons heart, his will, he saw how badly hatton wanted it.
    He was content with relinquishing all of his glory to hatton.

    I just always thought there was much more to it.

    plus he was tired of getting punched in the balls
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
