    tszyu loses to all of them and even in a rematch with judah he loses.he was nothing special to me at all.good fighter but neva top p4p never would be either.he would get out classes by the slicker fighters and stoped by the monster that hit like trucks at 140 that come to bang.only white boys thought he was great, he is ok.

    Great comments guys. I usually consider Tszyu as the most underrated fighter ever but it's great that he was able to get into the Hall of Fame. He was also considered as THE best amateur boxer ever.
    Now against Pac and Floyd I think that would be a different story. Pac vs Tszyu would have been a great fight.

    You obviosly have never seen most of Kostya's fights. You'd know that he never had trouble against slick boxers and that he usually eats them for breakfast.

    Kostya Tszyu would knock all of them out IMO.
