    Unifed all three belts and then reigned supreme for eight years unbeaten, sounds like you don't know **** about boxing. Hatton was Tzsyu last fight, but we can look at Judah. Mayweather had a tough fight with Judah in his prime, Tszyu knocked out Judah in 2.

    Sorry but Mitchell and Leija don't impress me.

    Tszyu - Mayweather's a great fight and contrast of styles. Mayweather's not a pressure fighter and Tszyu has the precision and timing to land on him.

    Toss-up fight for me.

    Vince Phillips outdueled Tszyu. I think Mayweather would beat him rather convincingly.

    I'd favor Mayweather to win a clear decision, but it wouldn't have been easy.

    I have to laugh.

    So basically marathon runners are the ones who's opinions we should respect about boxing because, you know, cardio is what makes for boxing knowledge.

    I never understand people's obsession with Rafael's weight. I'm sure most people who bring this up are themselves fat-asses.

    I don't think Dan understands everything about boxing, but he's a boxing journalist and entitled to his opinions.

    In this case he's right.

    Zoo had a lethal right hand, he very well could have KO'd Floyd. I'd pick Floyd to win by close decision but it would not be an easy fight for him.

    The **** are you talking about? He unified in 2001 and lost to Hatton three and a half years later.

    how exactly breh? How does floyds style which switches constantly throughout a fight fit kostya tszyu's style? Kosta would get shoulder rolled and thoroughly physically overwhelmed by floyd, y'all need to stop bullshittin
