Kostya Tszyu NAMED The 3 Hardest Punchers He Ever Faced [89qJgpaxcSc]
Kostya Tszyu was one of the most feared punchers in boxing history — but three men hit him harder than anyone else ever did. Vince Phillips shocked the entire boxing world in 1997, stopping the undefeated Russian-Australian star in round ten with brutal right hands nobody saw coming. Sharmba Mitchell tested Tszyu like few ever had, hurting him with a dangerous southpaw left hook before injury ended their first fight. And Ricky Hatton delivered the most devastating body punching Tszyu ever experienced, breaking him down round by round until the undisputed champion had nothing left and retired on his stool in round eleven. Twenty-five knockouts. Undisputed champion. Hall of Famer. But even Thunder from Down Under couldn't escape these three. Watch the full breakdown of the hardest punchers Kostya Tszyu ever faced — and what made each one so dangerous.
