Konstantin Borisovich "Kostya" Tszyu (/ˈkɒstə ˈzuː/; Russian: Константин Борисович «Костя» Цзю, IPA: [kənstɐnʲˈtʲin bɐˈrisəvʲɪtɕ ˈkosʲtʲə ˈdzːʲu]; born 19 September 1969) is a Soviet-born Australian former professional boxer who competed from 1992 to 2005. He held multiple light-welterweight world championships, including the undisputed and lineal titles between 2001 and 2005. Tszyu was an exceptional all-around boxer-puncher who relied heavily on accuracy and timing, and carried formidable punching power; he is often regarded as one of the hardest-punching light-welterweights in the division's history.

As an amateur, Tszyu represented the Soviet Union, winning a bronze medal in the lightweight division at the 1989 World Championships, and gold in the light-welterweight division at the 1991 World Championships. He also won consecutive gold medals at the 1989 and 1991 European Championships.

In 1995, Tszyu won his first of many professional world championships at light-welterweight—the IBF title—by defeating Jake Rodríguez. Five successful defences were made until an upset loss to Vince Phillips in 1997, which was Tszyu's first professional defeat. He would spend the next eight years undefeated, winning the vacant WBC title in 1999 and the WBA (Super) title in 2001. Tszyu scored arguably his most famous win that year, when he knocked out Zab Judah to reclaim the IBF title, as well as the vacant Ring magazine and lineal titles, thus becoming the first to undisputed light-welterweight champion in over 30 years. In 2005, in what would be his final fight, Tszyu was stopped by Ricky Hatton.

Tszyu is considered by many in Australia to be a national sports hero. In The Ring's March 2010 issue, Tszyu was ranked as the number one light-welterweight of the 2000s decade. In December 2010, he was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame for the Class of 2011. From 2012 to 2013 he coached professional boxers Alexander Povetkin, Denis Lebedev and Khabib Allakhverdiev.

Kostya is my favourite pound for pound. He came to my country and assimilated with our culture wonderfully. He was my hero. Chavez was good in his prime, but the sting in Kostya’s ferocious body shots was really unique. He would just keep coming and was fearless. You can feel those punches here on YT just watching. His son Tim had a good win over a lack lustre Horn last week. I see great potential in Tim, moves just like his Dad, and it’s great to see that Dad is training him hard on those body blows. Thanks for the video 👍

gabrielcabazos

a fighter with a unique character. with style, with respect. I noticed something in common with Emylianenko. Before the fight he does not look into the eyes of his opponent

romanrusu

Kostya fought without fear of being knocked out or beaten because he knew that you can't win a fight standing back and posing ! Zab had him rocked but Kostya clinched, recovered and then his superior power sent Zabs head to la la land !😎👍

5:02 I was at this fight ringside as a photographer . What a great fight it was. I spoke to Jan Bergman (next fight on the reel 7:54 ) before the fight who was Kostyas next fight. He told me was going to knock Kostya the fuck out. Watch the beautiful way Kostya dispatched him that night. Class act all the way.

Rockyo

When you see Kostya doing body shots it hurts looking at them, his son Tim is even better at body shots.

Kudos to all that got humbled, his sportsmanship, his whip, within those forearms two of the heaviest hands to ever grace the gloves. And Tim from a young age, watching every one of his dads fights over and over, Respect!
