Idk if getting rid of management was necessary but Tszyu I can agree with.

He said he's staying with Tszyu and Zimin. He's already back in training, wants an immediate rematch and wants to fight on the Klitschko vs Povetkin undercard. Some people are speculating that he may go with K2 but thats unsubstantiated speculation at this point.

I have to agree here. They built him up into a real star following the "loss" to Marco Huck, they did a great job. If anyone should be fired, it should be Tszyu for not stopping that damn fight. I love Kostya, but god damn, man.

This. Tszyu should have stopped the fight though.

Two things this tells you...

1) Russians are the worst people on Earth. Why else would a Russian fighter leave a Russian promoter and most likely for a Ukrainian promotion no less!!

That's the ultimate slap in the face for Hyrunov (biggest crook in boxing)

2) As far as Tsyzu goes - the fact that he is staying and Hyrunov is gone tells you that Lebedev likely found out that Hyrunov intimidated Tsyzu, the Doctor and/or the ref to ensure the fight went on against Lebedev's best interest and quite possibly against kostya's wishes.
