Where would Kostya Tszu rank in today's 140 pound division.

[Reloaded]

That must have been cool to be ringside for his debut.

Yeah, I always hoped a fight with him and Oscar would be made but they never did it. It's too bad. I would have liked to see it.

Yeah was a good afternoon of boxing it was an out door event at an old greyhound track come football field , Fenech fought Azumah Nelson in the main and got stopped .
Ive got some good pics of that day if I can find them I,ll throw them up.

Hell yeah, man. Very cool!

Phillips was a B grader and Judah at the time was as green as grass.

KT never fought a defining fight against an elite fighter, go watch the Hector Lopez fight .

True... tszyu is overrated. His best win was over Vernon forrest in the ams.

So, you don't think Crawford rules the ww division if he moves up?

No I don't think he would rule the WW division. He would win some and lose some. I said he would become average WW, that's an over exxageration, he would be in the mix but he certainly wouldn't have the division on lock down.

You would favor Floyd over KT but not Crawford even though Crawford has a similar style to Floyd's.

broner have similar style to floyd, berto at one time or another have similar style with floyd. you can always copy style but not class.

such a silly thing comparing baby crawford to tbe.

But styles make fights, right?

I agree with this, Kostya also had a world of problems with the average tough guy Hector Lopez and Kostya never had a defining fight he missed Oscar Mosley Floyd etc, he also got beat by Vince Phillips and never once wanted to to rematch Philiips and then quit on his stool against Hatton who both Floyd and Manny stopped.

I think KT was a really good fighter but he was over rated.

Average tough guy Hector Lopez?.
He was an olympic silver medalist at 17, and had plenty of talent, just lacked the dedication, but average?, hell no.

Manny was able to do it so I assume Crawford could.

Kostya is overrated, but he could beat Bud

Doesn't that make Crawford overrated?
