    Kostya was brilliant, I remember after his 1st pro fight he absolutely smashed his opponent and after the fight said to Johnny Lewis,

    why have to knock him out 1st round,

    Johnny said who told you that,

    Kostya You did

    Johnny stopped and thought, No Kostya I sad make sure you win the 1st round that''' make me happy.


    And of course the greatest ever from Aus was Les Darcy the Middlewieght who held the Australian Heavyweight title and was born just down the road from where I live,

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

      Kostya Tszyu was a top fighter. Credit where it's due. Ricky put him away, but Tszyu's career was winding down, and even though he was slightly past his best the bookies and the people here didn't really fancy Ricky to win that one, which shows that Tszyu was held in high regard here.

      Would have been dealt with by Mayweather when both at their best, but that's no shame because we're talking about one of the best ever at any weight.

      Really good fighter who would undoubtedly have knocked over the likes of Amir Khan and a few more talked about fighters. I would say in the last 10 years could live with anyone apart from Mayweather and the Philippine.

          Oh god the Tszyu /Hatton fight was terrible....it was just a poor job by the ref, Hatton would not stop holding so Tszyu just quit on his stool... out of frustration more than anything I believe... I asked Tzsyu about that when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame and he said.. it's hard enough fighting one man in the ring, there was no point in fighting two.. great answer I thought, and I am not a Yankee who just wants to bash Hatton.. I was a big fan of Ricky.. but that Tszyu fight was pathetic!!!

          Anyone who wants to see a great KO youtube Kostya Tszyu vs Zab Judah...you actually see a man knocked down twice with one punch.... seriously!!

            That was one hell of a punch.

            Now who was t who sad

            Boxer "Well watch the ref 'cause someone is sure as hell knocking me about"
