Kostya Tszyu: "Make Me An Offer And I'll Return

[Addison]

Vargas is sick tho! I luv that guy! Zoo apparently had bleeding on the brain after the fight so he probably knew sumthing was wrong. Im not gonna hold it against him. I DO think he shoulda went for a rematch with Cool Vince tho and if he fights on he should hav another go against Ricky

Absolutely, him quitting was a move that seemed warranted and advisable if he was pissing blood, and as wrecked as I heard. A sad image for those who loved him nonetheless.. I hated that. Happy for Ricky, but let out..

That's another good point - he never got Vince back too.

Hopefully he has enough left to make a good closing show.

If not - he's still a great champion.

He had bleeding on the brain. Lewis may just have saved his life. You can't hold the fact that Hatton stopped Tszyu against him. Kostya gave everything he had to give.

This is getting twisted by 3 seperate conversations.

I know he had to quit.

I was a member of Kostya's forum when all of that happened.

We've moved on. He did what he had to do. It's a painful image for me.

If he didnt hav bleeding on the brain i woulda been harder on him, clearly pulling out was the smart thing on hindsight. But if that hadnt been the case i like Rock woulda been a bit dissapointed, he coulda put up a protest and the fight was close and he was reigning champ so he may hav got the nod but i doubt it! However as i say i dont really hold it against him, im a big fan of his. I was there that night it was electrifiying!

I saw Kostya late last year and he looks in pretty good shape. He hasn't blown out. He was with his family and they don't want him to fight anymore. Maybe he's just waiting for the big pay day or knows deep down inside he'll never fight again, but just can't bring himself to say it....

who will he fight, I do like Tszyu vs Gatti.

Boxing fans got to get off of this "That would be cool to see him in there with Gatti" kick. Arturo Gatti needs to retire........PERIOD!!!!!
Way to much punishment. He will probably be living in some type of nursing home when he is in his 50's or 60's. Hope not though!!! I love him for what he's done(which is alot).

Kostya Tszu could probably continue to fight. He hasn't been punished anywhere near as much. We'll see how he looks if he actually goes through with the comeback. I think he's too old and doesn't have the style for an advanced age fighter.
