    OK - Tszyu's Grandfather is Korean.
    KT's father is 1/2 Korean, 1/2 Russian, and his mother is full Russian.
    This makes Kostya 3/4 Russian, 1/4 Korean.

    Tszyu is a naturalised Australian - his kids were all born here so they are 'Australian'.

    Let's not get into the whole "Is Russia in Europe or Asia?" again?!!!

    Now back on the topic... If you consider Tszyu is a naturalised Australian, he's my favourite fighter. If you want to say he's Russian, my favourite Aussie fighter is Danny Green.

    Consider some of the best Australian fighters at the moment...
    Tszyu (Russian/Korean descent)
    Vic Darchinian (Armenian)
    Robbie Peden - Part Aboriginal
    Mundine - Part Aboriginal
    Hussein brothers - Lebonese descent
    Paul Briggs - born in New Zealand

    What a melting pot we have!

        Not in American, he's still Asian. Your race is often times determined by your looks and he definately looks Asian and I wouldnt say if I saw him on the streets, thats a white guy and definately I wouldn't say he's Russian.

            Castillo is the man,
            He lost because he was cut and they would not let him continue, its not because Javier Jauregui is better than him. It is just that Castillo cutz. His first 4 losses were because of got cutz.

              Im 100 percent white. Im mix of English,German,Scottish,Irish that I know of but wouldn't doubt it if I had some other European blood lines as well. I know for sure that I dont have any Brown are Black in me! Most white Americans are mixed with different European blood lines. America is a European colonized land. Its alright because its all white. I know I can fly the American flag with honor and could sit at the same dinner table as the men on American money.

                Kosta Tsyuz is more white than Asian to me. The two top races of man are white and asian. Russia is mostly a white nation. Kosta was in the Russian army. Russia is bad ass. It was the Russians who beat **** Germany. America was stilll fighting ****s in France when Stalin was inside **** Germany. Russia beat the ****s then turned around and killed more ***s than Hitler did.

                  You might be mixed, but if you look black. Look Asian. Thats what you are. Kostya's looks Asian for sure.

                      Not the Russians I've been in contact with. I bet he has a white wife. He's probably denying the Asian in him.
