NH: Tszyu contemplates comeback

FORMER boxing world champion Kostya Tszyu admits there is a real possibility he will return to the ring and resume his career, if the price is right.

Tszyu lost his last fight to Englishman Ricky Hatton and has received offers from Russia to continue his career.

"I'm realistically saying it's still a big chance but it would need to be huge motivation," Tszyu said in Sydney.

"I would never fight for money but it would need to be a big number.

"Some Russians offered me ridiculous money, bigger than I've ever had, but not anything concrete," he said.

I for one hope he doesn't
You read of J Fenech contemplaing a comeback and sometimes it's nice just to remember the legends going out on a positive note.
Tszyu could have earned squillions after his Ricky Hatton fight with a Pay per view vs Oscar Del la Hoya
Now that would have been a great fight!
