**** me Francis havent you got it wrong. Aussies love KT because he was a fighter who made it by hard work and he was humble and embraced the country he was living in. Not to mention he unified the division and was the best 140 pound fighter for quite a few years. Are you ever going to post anything that isnt hate on here?
Agreed ! Yeh 250 odd amateur fights and 11 losses , and the the only reason he lost to hatton was coz off the lay off ! , KT was under rated as technical fighter , but in prime he had power all over pretty boy, either awesome fight!
Theres no WTf about it watch some tape. And you will see there stance's and there hips they are pretty close. The way they held there hands even. You must be just a casual fan.
What are you suggesting? That 140 was a black hole of talent for the 9 years that Kostya held titles there? In your opinion who are the three best names on Mayweather's resume? I'm thinking that Tszyu would be second on the resume after DLH if he had fought Money. ......unless I'm missing someone obvious :think
You are trolling. If you want to pick a style similar to kostya, here's a tip...pick a euro/ russian fighter. Not a mexican/ american.
Personally, and this will probably be borne out by the majority of historical opinion, Tszyu ranks higher than Hatton.
To give a relevant Tszyu example, I'd have no problem with people having Chavez above Kostya and DLH despite losing to both.
Disscussed in the General forum in 2010 http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=249634 :deal [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpPA2u1iLNE[/ame] I like this Pimp C guy! :good Especially when he says KT got defeated by a former crackhead in Vince Phillips, he has a point, this would never have happen to floyd and no one can say KT was a former shell of himself as they have for the Hatton fight. Floyd by clear UD or early KO.
