Born Russian but lives in Australia, it's up to him what he is I guess.

He is Russian, with an Australian passport.

i know alot of people view Kostya Tszyu as australian even though this is false. he is Russian... he was just based in australia. whats your oppinion? is he Russian(which he is) or australian?

im only doing this thread to prove to all people who think he is australian that he is russian.

Doesn't matter to me.

Bute fights out of Canada, but is of Romanian nationality. Abraham fights out of Germany, but is of Armenian descent.

i dont know if you mean, but this is different. calzaghe moved to wales when he was very little. tszyu moved to australia when he was 23 or 24 i think.

The same logic applies to both whatever way you look at it.
