Kostya World Champ Again!
Yes, he deserves his very own thread.
Australian boxer Kostya Tszyu has retained his International Boxing Federation super lightweight title after stopping American Sharmba Mitchell in the third round of their bout in Phoenix Arizona this afternoon
He is truly one of the greats. Pound for pound one of the hardest hitters in the world. And what an bloody good ambasador for Australia. He has gotta be the most polite boxers around. Mitchell called him some hurtful names through the press but Kostya still has the good nature to praise Mitchell for his efforts. What an inspirational athlete.
Did i mention that the man hasnt fought in two years, before todays fight.
Im going back down the pub.
