    maybe because of his out of the ring work~?? apparently he's big in russia and australia.. Jackson Bonsu brought life to Belgium boxing so when he retires he'll be next, lol

    How in the **** is the silly ass thread still on the first page?

    Freddy, stop perpetuating your warped views and bull**** in general.

    Kostya deserves to be in the HOF. Aside from the fact that he was one of the most avoided fighters in the sport in his day, he still managed to build a decent resume, overcome adversity and was the only man to have unified the titles at 140..Infact he's STILL the only man to every unify the titles at 140.

    Prime for prime Kostya would steamroll todays fighters at 140..Every mother****ing one of em.

    unified against sharmba...a man who was good, but failed everytime he stepped up...he was undefeated vs c level guys...stepped up to about c+ b- level and went down quick...

    then zab which was a great win for him...but we all saw what zab turned out to be and though a great win, having only 1 great win shouldn't take you into the HOF.....

    So what you're saying is even though Kostya did something nobody else had done

    Even though Kostya lost his title yet came back even stronger to unify them in a division where it had never been done..

    Kostya is one of the few fighters that has brought clarity to the sport in his era...This alone in my opinion gets him in.

    It's an honest, warriors mentality that is very much an endangered quality in our sport Freddy. One of the last of a dying breed...

    If you can't understand the importance and magnitude of such things Freddy I'm honestly ashamed...

    You could pick on a million different fighters but Kostya Tszyu? Come. The. **** on bro.

    dude...any b-a level fighter at that time could've done what he did...but they chose the challenge at 147 and above.....floyd could've easily stayed there and swept that division in 6 ****en months....oscar would've slapped sharmba and judah into a ****en nap....mosley would've gotten arrested for the things he would've done to them 140 pounders at the time.....

    imagine what tito could've done at 147 if he stayed there his whole career...all while vargas, oscar and many others do damage at 154 and above.....

    all i'm saying is that he could've done way more...but he didnt
    the things he did at 140 are great, but when taken into consideration what was just a few pounds north, then it makes what he did at 140 look weak...especially with the competition he did it with.....
