    Tszyu Comeback!?

    Ricky Hatton's forum says so, he wants a rematch with Hatton or a fight with De La Hoya or Mosley. It would be intresting to see Tszyu back in the mix, im pretty sure he could take out anyone 140-147 apart from someone with Hatton's style.

    You think he'd beat the top welterweights? At this stage of his career.

      Any boxer he would KO, anyone who fights him from the outside would get KO'd, Kostya is too good on the outside and power is the last thing that leaves a fighter. Im pretty sure he could still mix it up he keeps himself in good shape and hasn't had many wars.

        King Kostya has been hit alot all of his career. Not many all out wars, true enough, but he's been tagged pretty good since his amateur days.
        He relies on his millimeter presicion when he dogde a punch, and not on his guard like most fighters do.
        At 36, the reflexes will not be as good as they were, especially when he's not been active at all...

        There's another factor you should take into account; The top guys now know how to beat Tszyu. Why would they stay and box on the outside when they can make him ineffective by fighting on the inside?

            Tszyu-DLH would be fun, however long it lasted...but it should only be a last resort if DLH can't get Hatton, Cotto or anyone else of current relevance in the ring with him.

              Tszyu has ALWAYS been a 1 domentional fighter..he paws with the left jab then throws a vicious staright right, de la hoya tszyu would look like chavez de la hoya, tszyu is too short

                I don't know about this.... having fought only 20 rounds in almost 5 years is a huge question mark.

                Besides, I've seen Tszyu on TV about a year ago and he looked quite chubby..

                I think best fights for him are:
                The winner of Forrest/ Baldy..
                Malignaggi,
                The winner of Witter/Harris

                Even at this stage he will take any of these guys, but Hatton, Cotto, PBF, DLH, Mosley would spell a big payday and a loss on his carrer.

                  If Malignaggi had any sense - he would call him out.

                    Tszyu is not coming back - he's happy dancing with the stars, writing books, earning his degree, basically ****ing around. His "I'll let you know if I want to continue boxing" thing that's been dragging for 2 years now is beginning to irritate me big time though. And I am a big fan of him. Be smokin or be passin, stop ****ing around, Tszyu.
