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.
Well said Third Man. Anyone who thinks Tszyu was overrated doesn't know squat about boxing. One of the all time great combination's of power, timing, and smarts. As Third Man mentioned...the best of his own era had incredible respect for him. One of my all time dream fights would have Tszyu vs. Mayweather...shame it never happened. That all being said...i truly hope he doesn't come back.
