Was the portrayal of Tszyu in the Johnny Lewis biography accurate?

LOL.. once he unifyed the division, he defended as unifyed champ 2 times and then didnt fight for 1 yr 11 months, almost 2 yrs inactive and was stripped so he wasnt there for ANYONE to come at him.

 

Tszyu was a great fighter, he didn't need Lewis, Tszyu would have been great with a bum like Hyder in his corner, he unified a division... Very disappointed in you Francis you are more of an A hole than me, you just seem to hate everybody...

 

Mundine yeah?

Kostya definitely drank beers. He had a keg fridge with a tap in the door. Beer after training.:good

 

Couldn't tell whether you were just being a ****, sarcastic, or just had no idea.

You've answered my question.

 

What's the name of this book? ANy links to it?

 

I must be a massive **** if i can pull a "**** you" out of nice guy Sox.

Nahh mate i thought it was clear who i was talking about, none of that stuff fits Tszyu

 

Sorry, maybe a bit of an overreaction.

 

no worries at all

And of course i know he drinks - he's responsible for one of the great drinking quotes before tsyu-mitchell 2 i think

"i havn't had a beer for 6 weeks and on Saturday Sharmba will pay"

 

How could the IBHOF get it so wrong inducting Tszyu in 2011 ? atsch
And Ring magazine ranking him as No1 Light Welter of the decade. [2000's]

The bloke is obviously a fraud like your closet mate Mandy. :hey

@fast hands, not sure why your so upset, all ive done is stated FACTs.

 

Francis I'm curious to hear the names that Kostya avoided in his reign as undisputed 140lb champion.

 

Tszyu had shoulder surgery in the period you mention and his career seemed to be winding down.
The Hatton fight helped him to make some hard decisions.
Unlike yourself most elite fighters can't stay at the top forever.

Haven't read the book, but the hype on the front cover ,
" The story of Australia's King of Boxing " is opinion not fact.

 

The bit about Tommy Raudonikis is bloody hilarious. I don't think he was really criticising KT's achievements but more of an insight to the things the fans don't get to see.
Surely biographers would run a draft by people they are going to spill the beans on, you would either lose friends or have copies taken off of the shelves. Maybe they don't care. It's readable for sure.

 

Ahh its written by Paul Kent, It is most probably full of bull**** and heresay and 3rd and 4th party observations.
