"Former WBC/IBF/WBA 140 pound champion Kostya Tszyu said yesterday that if he returns to the ring it will be at welterweight poundage with a rematch against WBC/IBF/WBA welterweight champion Zab Judah on his radar. Tszyu said, "Zab Judah is more mature and confident in himself. I have never known a boxer who is afraid of anything but it [2001 loss] might affect him subconsciously. The question I ask is, should I stay in the same weight class?" Tszyu also commented on a rematch with Ricky Hatton. "To come up a division or not? I haven't weighed myself lately and I'm not afraid of anything but I think I might break the scales. If I am going to fight it won't be at 140 pounds it will be at 147 pounds. I haven't decided yet that I'm definitely stopping boxing. Years back I promised myself that once I make the decision to retire that's it, there's no way back. That's the reason I am taking my time. I don't want to make a decision too soon. I have to decide what is the best for me and that will be in the next month or two." Tszyu scored second-round TKO over Judah in Las Vegas in November 2001. Kostya launched a new book and DVD yesterday. "I'm busy right now," he said. "That's why I say I'm not going to make a decision on my future."
In my opinion this is a lose lose situation for judah. If he loses hes "exposed". If he wins he beat a "past his prime"
fighter.
But I would love to see this fight
