      He's a bumm who fought a few bus drivers and got his fame really when he beat judah (via a very lucky punch)

      He had no skills what so ever,he was very flat flooted with a bad defense.

      He's a QUITTER who did not have the heart to keep going against hatton,QUITTERS are NO Hall of famers!!!!!!!!!!
      Come on now that was not a lucky punch.

        LMAO@ you saying "he dominated a division for the better part of the decade."

        then you say..."he never wanted to fight guys he actually thought could beat him"



        so "what or who" did he actually dominate?

          I don't know how true that is because Judah was suppose to be the man to actually beat him and Kostya fought him with no problem.

          And, he was not content to stay with Showtime per say. He was signed to Showtime. At that time Showtime signed fighters just like HBO signed fighters.

          I mean if we use that logic we can say the same thing about the other fighters that were on HBO. That they did not want to fight Tszyu cuz they were content to stay on HBO.

            Damn,

            I wish people would stop saying Shane wasn't a 140 fighter.

            I KNOW. But the very fact that
            1) Shane went from 135 to 147, and
            2) Shane was negotiating for a Mayweather fight at 137

            tells me that a SSM vs Tszyu fight could have been made if the Oscar bout hadn't surfaced for Shane.

            Did Zoo straight-up turn down a Floyd offer...or was that during one of his injured stints?

                    Tszyu was the first champion to unify the junior welterweight division in over 30 years.

                    1st reason.
