    Tszyu is not close to the level of a Pacquiao or Floyd.

    *******s be getting mixed emotions from your avatar. Risky.

    Yeah your right though everyone looking at Tsysu with rose tinted glasses. No way he would be able to keep up with todays athletes and modern nutrition.

    god im funny.

    Smashes everyone except Pac and Floyd if we're talking about a young Kostya, and he would do it relentlessly and viciously just like he did it the first time around. I like Bradley quite a bit but he would get smacked down hard. All you ever hear about when KT is brought up is the Phillips fight, but Vince was a hell of a fighter, big for the weight and fought the fight of his life. MAB lost to Jr. Jones. Pac lost to Torrecampo. JMM lost to Norwood. **** happens in boxing, sometimes it's just not your night. Even ATG fighters lose.

    Would be a fantastic fight KT v. Pac, but I think Floyd could be slick and make a boring points win out of it if he really wanted to.

    That was my point i mean Marquez lost to Freddie Norwood to we ever here about that. NO but they regard him as a Great.

    Marvin Hagler lost early on do they bring that up. NO but anytime Tszyu is mentioned all you here ffrom the haters is Phillips.

    Yeah, coz there's no-one in the division as good as Vince Phillips or Ricky Hatton.

    Even if there were great fighters in the division now, Tszyu wouldn't fight them anyway, same as he never fought Oscar De La Hoya, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Shane Mosley, etc. I'm not saying it was Tszyu's fault he didn't fight any of them, just saying that he didn't get fights with any of them and it was his loss, as the rest of those guys had many big fights and he didn't.

    Tzsyu, ruined careers, Gonzalez was his best win among many, he dodged nobody, sure, he lost to Phillips, a talented fighter and much bigger, but hey, Ali lost,Louis lost, outside of Marciano they all do, in his loss to Hatton in UK, he was fouled all night without any protection, he was a superb technician and a tremendous unified champion.

    If you're not blaming him, then why are you saying he 'wouldn't' fight great fighters now? He wanted the DLH fight but couldn't get it after Phillips, Mosley skipped the division to avoid him and Floyd fought Gatti instead of even a declining KT.

    Hatton was **** compared to prime Kostya. KT was better in his pro debut than Hatton ever was, fought Juan La Porte in his fourth pro fight, Livingstone Bramble in his 10th. I guarantee you KT would be champing at the bit to get in the ring with Manny OR Floyd, he wasn't afraid of getting the L, he just wanted to fight.
