      This kinda came out of thin air. Even tho Tszyu has been gone since the Hatton fight he would be a good name to have on Margarito's resume if he can beat him.

        i wouldn't even want to see this bc im a big fan of both, i think Tszyu is closer to done than in the prime of his career and should probably test grounds at 147 before going in there against margarito. I hope that Williams is the opponent although tszyu even at this stage would probably be the better opponent economically both in the short and long term.

          I'd love to see this fight. Would be great experience for Margarito and for Tszyu its a good comeback opponent to see exactly where hes at. Lets hope they can put a deal together.

            Tszyu must be going after one more payday before he is done. Margarito should be fighting at 154, while Tszyu has never left 140. This proves nothing for Margarito and is way too tough of a fight for Kostya. If Margarito wants to prove himself it should be against one of the many guys who are real contenders and have called him out. I hope this fight doesn't happen.

              I'd pay 49.95 for this bout.

              I hope they make it happen.

                i like margarito and tszyu, so i hope it doesnt happen.
                Tszyu should take an easy opponent for the 1st fight of his comeback.
                Margarito-Williams is the fight that must happen
