will he get to choose his next apponent and will he get better money, if he does'nt retire..

this makes him the best 140 pounder in the world, all roads lead to Kostya

Launches him back towards the top of the lb4lb rankings, & definitely makes him the man to beat at 140.


This was truly an amazing performance by Tszyu.

i've moved tsyzu to #4 on P4P list and he is without question the #1 jr. welt.

floyd is the biggest fight out there for him... and gatti is probably the most exciting and maybe more lucrative fight...

like ur p4p list....nard should be 3rd on that list...very mediocore weight division.

For years, I have never viewed Tszyu-Gatti as a fight that would end up as a competitive one. It would be an ATTRACTIVE fight, of course.
But, ultimately, I have never thought Gatti would avoid Kostya's accurate & devastating right hand.

This would be a nightmarish fight for Gatti...who has been wisely steered clear of big punchers (except for DeLaHoya) for his entire career.

Tszyu and Gatti are my two favorite fighters right now, Gatti is tailor made for Kostya.....this would be a war but unless Gatti lands something real real early I think KT stops him inside 6 rounds.

urdaddy...


That guy in your avatar is the single most underrated fighter in the history of the sport.
I mean....look at that nose ! So huge, never busted ! Barry was a defensive genius, not to mention a big time puncher.

Tszyu and Gatti
For me this fight is uninteresting. Gatty has no almost any chances. Ward to him has put many strong punches. But Kostya is much better than Ward. Tszyu by KO(TKO) in 4-5 round.

i think he will fight hatton next as all the other guys you mention ar econtracted HBO kostya to shwotime, takes time to get over these negotiations as we well know.

on that perfomance he will kick hattons arse though, :eek:

Launches him back towards the top of the lb4lb rankings, & definitely makes him the man to beat at 140.


This was truly an amazing performance by Tszyu.

Agreed, Out of sight out of mind. He has re-entered the picture in a dominant fashion.

Good looking out Jabs. I had Barry up because I wanted to win the gayest avatar competition.....but I actually like it now. That nose IS precision at it's finest.

What this fight really showed us is that Mitchell is not a world class fighter. He is not in the same league as Kosta and he was lucky to last as long as he did the first time.

WAR KOSTA!!
