    Loss to Kono a big one. I like Kono but feel his day as champion numbered. He lucky to fight Kaovichit for title.

    Tepparith had good run long time ago.

    I think it's true. Half Korean I believe

    Similar to how Kostya Tszyu is Korean/Russian mix

    Russia competes in the European championships, Khazaks in the Asian. That's a good way to draw the line imo. Shumenov is eligeble, too, then.

    Kostya`s father is korean/mongolian, funny how everyone ignores the mongolian part for some reason.

    His father is not mongolian. He said that himself. There are many facts in internet.

    He has nothing to do with mongols.


    He is 1/2 Korean, 1/2 Russian.

    :nono Not the part Kovalev hails from.

    Chelyabinsk is unequivocally part of Europe, though it sits very near the border with Asia.

    Ditto Provodnikov.

    Berezovo is due north of Chelyabinsk, also in the furthermost eastern reaches of Europe.
