    While I always liked Kostya and have always ranked him as a very good fighter indeed, I was never quite sold on him. The loss to Phillips is a big stain on his legacy for me personally. I realise Phillips was erratic in his approach to the sweet science and that a rematch may not have made sense considering that you never knew which Phillips was going to show up but none the less a man as dominant as Kostya really should have got that rematch up and going and tried to dispatch Phillips. A shame he never really avenged that defeat.

    Good interview by the way.

    Absolute class, I have always admired Kostya.

    Guys like Mayweather would have picked up that phone mid-interview and tried to look important. He just hung it up and carried on.

    Smashing fella:goodVery respectful.
