    Floyd always said that Zu was his dream fight........

        He shoulda came back a few months ago, I know Oscar picked Forbes because his similarites to Mayweather, but DelaHoya-Tszyu wouldve been nice.

          There is no "Russians".
          Technically there could be someone few years ago, but today noone gives a **** aboutTszyu even in Russia. The guy is in Russian TV ad's making anti coughing pills promotions. Possibly Kostya is being short on money, I mean really really really short on money. In spite of what he is saying he never got to the really huge payday. Money tend to dissappear and now he is desperate to get any opportunity to earn something.

          Kostya wants his name in newspapers and thats just sad...

                in his prime, tszyu would KTFO anyone with in 2 or 3 weightclassses of him mark my words, his loss to phillips was a one off, had trouble with his weight, overconfident, didnt train hard enough etc...and his loss to hatton was a result of him being older and slower, but i reckon if he gets fit he has a chance against some of the weaker ww's, (he cant make 140 anymore), still has the power, the timing, the accuracy, but will be quite slow and will have stamina problems i'd say........not a chance against floyd now, hes too old and slow....i reckon he could do a number on fishnet boy though

                      I would never fight for money but it would need to be a big number
                      LOL.

                      Still, I'd like to see him come back. Plenty of old guys in boxing and I'm sure he could still cause trouble.
