    Looking for a defining Kostya Tsyzu fight that cements his legacy


    please don't include Judah, chavez or Hatton



    I'm actually looking for something to watch later on at work, please no illegal links don't need eb shutting me down. Just provide the fighters name should be cool enough

    Phillips. It was actually a good fight and it showed what would happen if he fought pryor.

    If he had won the Phillips fight it would've been great, that fight was a very underrated war.

    I'd go with him unifying against Miguel angel Gonzalez, Tszyu put on an absolute clinic.

    Hatton.. lol

    In all seriousness, Tszyu did show alot of his technical savvy in that fight(while he could). He was setting up some nice combos as well as catching Hatton with more of the same coming in. I think Tszyu in better shape/less wrestling in the fight would have destroyed Hatton, but thats just me (Im not really a big fan of Hatton)

    I think that first Shambra Mitchell fight was good. Mitchell was the real deal at the time if I remember correctly. Not the rematch... the first fight was good and warranted a rematch due to how it ended. Kostya was the man. I had to get Showtime because he was not in the HBO stable.

    The second Mitchell fight is what had him on p4p lists late in his career...some gave mitchell a legit shot and he just destroyed him.
