    Well he was to small to go up to WW, every thing you have said is what is wreacking boxing, he fought every one in his weight class, and was the JWW king, he should not have to talk smack to be able to get a fight with guys that are stepping through his division. ( but i suppose that is the reality)

    Kostya is top three/five JWW (not H2H) , that is enough to be put in the HOF for me.

    wrong with boxing, WTF....i never said he needed to talk smack, there are many ways to go after boxing stars...how the **** is manny doing it ??? imagine if he would've never went after morales again...or gave barrera his rematch (because many thought it was a fluke due to some injury to marcos head)....i'm just saying, kostya could've done a lot more than just sit down in a weak division and control something that even a b level fighter can control.....

    imagine if manny would've stayed at 122
    floyd at 130
    chavez at 135
    mosley at 135
    oscar at 130
    duran at 135
    sugar ray at 147
    tito at 147
    bhop at 160
    etc
    etc
    etc
    i can go on forever and ever...in fact, jumping divisions is what makes boxing, not breaks it......too many titles are what breaks boxing, not challenges.....

    and please dont bring up his size...many smaller men have defeated bigger men.....but IMO that's like you admitting that kostya didnt have the tools to bang with the big boys...

    A "streak"? Vince defended the title like 3 times before getting stopped by Millet. His first defense was against Mickey ****ing Ward.

    Doesn't really matter what he's like in interviews. You can give the boring "I'll fight who my team says" or verbally challenge everyone out there, but all that matters is what's going on behind closed doors with negotiations.

    Which most of us don't really know about.

    Imagine if he had stayed another 3 months at 130. This great fighter came up in weight:

    If he would've won he'd have 1 great fighter on his resume. But he didn't.

    No one stopped Mickey Ward except Vince. In 3 rounds.

    Tszyu would have killed the crack house version of Vince Phillips that fought Millet.

    and kostyas first defense of his IBF REIGN AT HOME was a decision over ROGER MAYWEATHER :lol::lol:

    then after winning a "vacant" title instead of chasing the rematch...he defended vs AHMED ****EN SANTOS THE COMMENTATOR :rofl:rofl


    come on koyla, u know me better than that....:good

    Vince wasn't hurt but he was eating punches all night and barely throwing punches himself. He looked like a zombie in there.

    Fred - 42 pages and Tszyu is still in the HoF and you're looking more and more like a useless tit by the page.

    You're credibility is utterly null and void with the comment about how jumping weight divisions "makes boxing".

    Jumping weight divisions makes for a special fighter, not a special sport.

    You should hand in your mod badge on principle alone with this ****.

    Casa - Ward was stopped on a cut - Not TKO'd - A cut.

    Seriously? There is very little padding on Tszyu's resume, unlike the resume of Chavez.

    Hence, Julio "The Mexicabbiecutioner" Chavez.
