    Floyd lost 2 of the first 4 rounds and dominated the rest of the fight. Shut the **** up with "struggles"


    Tzsyu didnt struggle with Phillips and Hatton he got his ass kicked.
    How bout that?

    :lol:
    Oscar at 154 beats Kosta Tszyu. Tzsyu vs Castillo is 50/50 and id favor Castillo since Zoo got stopped by Hatton and Vince Phillips

    Mayweather is still best in the world. Kosta tszyu is at home on hos couch after ricky hatton retired him. :hi:

    Floyd's defensive skills and ring IQ would have been the difference in this fight like most of his fights. Kosta in no doubt would have had his moments, but I see this fight Floyd frustrating him eventually and taking UD win.

    Rafael is right. It's just a bad style matchup for Tsyzu who was not a good in-fighter and needed to get extension on his shots. It's why both Phillips and Hatton were able to beat him down and why a Sharmba Mitchell didn't stand a chance.

    Yes easy work for Mayweather. Tszyu lost to Hatton for Christ sakes. Tszyu was overrated.

    Floyd picked Judah apart pretty easily .. where in the hell you say tuff fight.

    zab had 3 completive round where his speed kept him from getting KOed but as far giving floyd a tuff fight ? you're crazy MAN !!

    I hate when people bring up the Tszyu win against Judah. Judah out boxed him for 2 rounds and made a stupid move by stepping away with his hands down, credit Zoo for catching him... but if Judah stays on a knee and takes the 8 count like he should have done Zoo gets dominated the rest of the fight.

    Giving Zoo credit for 2nd round KO against Judah is basically like giving Floyd credit for a 4th round KO of Ortiz.. both had way more to do with the boxers making huge mistakes

    What does it even mean to be worthy of the IBHOF? Certainly doesn't require you to be a great or even very good fighter. I'm not sure why boxing fans continue to cite it as if it somehow validates a fighters worth.

    Tszyu would have scared Mayweather shitless and definitely affected his approach, on account of his power.

    The fight was coveted by Kostya, but Floyd was happy to hide behind the "Im on HBO and your on Showtime" argument..

    Kostya knew how to fight and how to time even the fastest opponents really well. An incredible brain. He'd cut him down on the ropes, trap him and really hit some home run punches. And he would definitely land.

    At 140, in his prime Kostya was indeed a beast.

    Gee, two rounds? I suppose it's a good thing for Tszyu that he was lucky enough that his right hand just managed to make a connection with Judah's chin, because I'm not sure how he ever would have been able to overcome such a substantial, truly overwhelming lead that Judah had on the scorecards.
     
  13. As always dumb comments. He lost once then lost his last fight, those were not his biggest wins, but Mayweather had a tough time with Judah, and Tzsyu did not. Michigan only likes black fighters

    For those referencing the Vince Phillips fight - have you actually seen it? I mean, you're citing it as if it were some sort of blueprint for Mayweather to follow. Vince Phillips stood his ground and engaged in a shootout with Tszyu. He stood right in Tszyu's range and took bomb after bomb but never allowed it to deter him and would always answer right back.




    Mayweather wouldn't even dream of fighting Tszyu like that.
     
  15. Ali sucks, look he lost to late in his career, and Chavez too, and mike Tyson is overrated he lost to buster Douglas, if I use your ******ed thinking, ****in ******
