SYDNEY, Australia - Former undisputed light welterweight champion Kostya Tszyu had some things he wanted to pass onto his fans, including news of an upcoming live online chat session this Friday.
Here is his communication in its entirety:
Dear Tszyu Crew,
Four weeks on “Dancing with the Stars” has flown by and I am really enjoying dancing live on television. I thought my performance with the Paso Doble last week was good. Luda and I scored 26 out of 40. It is a hard dance because the movements are continual and you cannot stop for any poses. We had all the basics correct and there are some steps in the dance you cannot forget.
We have a one week break from “Dancing with the Stars” this Tuesday. My dance next week will be the Samba. This is Luda’s dance. She is a specialist in it and that is good for me, but her expectations for me are even higher!
I feel that I am improving each week. I am setting goals for myself and I am not planning to be voted out yet. I have received very good support so far, but I can see how important the viewer voting is each week. For me to continue on, I need your voting support.
While “Dancing with the Stars” is a lot of fun, more importantly, proceeds from your voting will go to one of my favourite charities - THE SMITH FAMILY, who help needy children and families.
The Tszyu Crew in Australia can help me support THE SMITH FAMILY in the following ways.
To vote by phone: 1902 555 013
OR
To vote by phone text: SMS "Kostya" to 194 777
So, start dialling and texting now to support THE SMITH FAMILY and me in this unique competition.
“Dancing with the Stars” can be seen each Tuesday night on the Channel 7 network in Australia at 7:30pm AEDT. Check your local television guides for screening times in your area.
You can see photos of me dancing and read reports on my performances at www.KostyaTszyu.com
This coming Thursday night March 23, I will be appearing in my “Something Worth Fighting For” live stage show at Rooty Hill RSL, Sherbrooke Street, Rooty Hill in Sydney, Australia. Tickets can be booked on (02) 9677 4916. It is a great show with lots of video clips, live questions from the audience and time for autographs and photos at the end of the night. I look forward to seeing many new faces there from the Tszyu Crew!
This coming Friday March 24, my “Dancing with the Stars” partner Luda Kroitor and I will be live in the www.KostyaTszyu.com Forum for a web-chat with the Tszyu Crew from 6:00pm Australian Eastern Daylight Saving Time (AEDT). This is a great chance for you to ask Luda and I lots of questions.
