    only fight that makes sense is a judah fight, winner gets some sort of redemption. judah could make up for the "chicken dance" and kosta wouldnt be remembered for going out on his stool.

      Fight makes no sense for Kostya.... making his big comeback fight against a guy coming off of two high-profile losses? Maybe when Judah was undisputed it made sense, but after Baldomir and Mayweather? Nah.

      Kostya is nearly a legend, if he comes back it'll be for a legendary type of fight...one last hurrah.

        can anyone say Tszyu vs. Judah !!? This would be the perfect rematch for these two, with Zab needing a tuneup first and the same with Tszyu. After Zab lost that embarassing loss to him years ago, he would want revenge and I think alot of people would want to see this fight.

          Kos should make up his mind; sooner than later.

          What's he now; 71?

          He keeps teasing these announcements.

          I'll not stay on the end of my chair waiting for him to decide..

            Great point & I agree with you. He's been out so long that I think he would get beat by any of the elite; especially in the welter division where he's never fought.

              A Judah rematch makes NO sense. There is no benefit for Tszyu in that fight, not much of a reward since he KO'd him before, and Zab has lost his last two fights. He did say that if he were to come back, it would be at 147. I'm thinking he's too small for the guys there, and i'm not sure if he can make 140 without much struggle anymore.

                kostya would go out against a decent fighter, a fighter he has a history with.

                    Good point, its starting to piss me off! He is done as an elite fighter i fear and definatly at Welter! Him and Floyd back in Tzsyu's prime woulda been good but now he is cannon fodder to Floyd! A Hatton rematch is the only big fight that makes sense for him, Hatton hasnt been quite so relentless and genererally good as he was for Kostya, He would have the chance to regain staus as a pound for pounder and avenge a loss at the same time, id pick Hatton to win but its a good fight for Tzsyu. Also if he lasted the full 12 or even went out on his back trying he mite shut up sum of the peeps that think he got no heart!

Anyway, he has lost the passion for the sport anyone else would have came back and tried to obtain another championship belt. He will lose to the top welters in his weight not because of talent or him being washed up, but his desire is not there.
                      Like he cares about some internet posters respect, id like to see you even go 1 round with Hatton, without quitting.. thats if you hadnt been knocked out already.. do you even box? or are you just one of these boxing "fans" who like to rag on other boxers when there to gutless to lace them up themselfs and give it a go, because its no as easy as it looks.

                      Any boxer who has the guts to even step in the ring with another fighter no matter what their record or even if they get knocked out in the opening minute, they have my full respect, because iv done the hard yards and it's not that easy its actually very ****ing hard work.

                      Also Kostya was hurt real bad and when he was taken to hospital for tests it was shown that he had blood clots to hes brain.. so i guess he should of just fought on and risk permanent health problems? or maybe even worse.. just so he could get some respect from you boxing fans?

                      I also dont see Kostya coming back, hes had alot of time off hes not really in hes prime, and i think he has lost the hunger that he once had, but maybe he has enough in him for a goodbye fight which he hopefully wins.
