I'm Sorry. KOSTYA TSZYU is NOT a HoF'er. His Best Win is Zab Judah!!

[Las Vegas,]

I stopped reading at "His best win is Zab Judah" When did you start watching boxing brother? Stop looking at Boxrec, kthx. Tszyu is an obvious HoFer.

[Gino Ros]

Certainly not inferior talents like Barry McGuigan, Jose Torres, Jess Willard, Ingo Johannssen, etc. Really, Tszyu was an easy choice. He is on almost every top 5 list for his weight class.

Did Johanssen beat Patterson? Zoo beat anybody that good?

See, that's the thing. Rverybody wants to talk about how great Zoo was, bit nbobody ever wants to analyze his resume.

Plus lets be honest here if Daniel Zaragoza is in there so should Tszyu.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

but he did NOT fight everyone in his divisions. that's the thing.

he didn't fight shane, oscar, pernell, real chavez, floyd, etc, etc.

You do realise Shane skipped the 140 division? Oscar's stay in the division was short lived. As was Floyd's

Sweet Pea? LOL....ok now I know you havent got a clue.

Still,

nobody is addressing the merits of Tszu on his own. Or saying, no, gino. You are wrong because zoo was better than shane or barrera, etc.

Soo is a lower-tier Hofer in my book.


and , if I remember, some guy had made the poll on here a few years back .

[jrosales13]

Are you joking? Tszyu had a period of dominance in the 140lb division.

I agree...

I know who did what. K. I know exactly who was fighting how and who.

remind me again why you are laughing at a Pernell/Zoo matchup?

I don't really care about Boxing's HOF. You don't need to do much to get in. ATG status is the way to go. HOF spots are given out like nothing. In other sports like baseball, basketball, and Football, HOF is like what ATG is to boxing. I made a thread about very long ago, that the Boxing HOF is shit, way too easy to get in.

Tszyu got stopped by Verno Phillips in his prime, and Ricky Hatton. Verno Phillips? Come on.

The best name on his resume is a shot JCC Sr., about as good as Jones on Calzaghe's resume.

If it's about names faced, like I keep reading a lot of posters arguments in this thread, then let's give all of those journeymen a spot in the Hall of Fame.

Boxing Hall of Fame is not credible at all, probably the weakest HOF from all sports, and i'm a big boxing fan and am saying this.

It's his best against a prime fighter. Or what was better? his stoppage loss to Verno Phillips?
