Tszyu via mid to late round KO. But Crawford would be tricky if he got on his bike ala how he did against Postol. He'd get steamrolled if he opted to stand and trade with Tsyzu but he obviously wouldn't do that.
Gatti would have BEATEN PHILLIPS TO PULPS LMFAO Who the hell has Phillips beaten besides Tszyu? No one. Oh right, Irish Micky Ward!!! And yeah, he never ever wanted to fight Mayweather. The only reason Mayweather never was #1 at 140 was because he wanted the biggest fights out there (ODLH, Mosley) that paid the most. But we never heard Kostya talk about no Mayweather after Gatti. No one did. Mayweather would have annihilated him.
"Zab shoulda beaten Tsyzu easily, robbed in my opinion" And the " Troll Award of the Year" goes to MVZ. Only thing Zab did in the Tsyzu fight was introduce his version of the chicken dance. well, that and act like an idiot with the referee after the referee saved his ass from going to a permanent convalescence home.
Zab should have been allowed to continue and he was a more naturally talented fighter than Kostya. He's a better fighter. Zab got careless in r2, but he would have easily outboxed him!!!!
Well, he certainly has a better resume than Vinny. An undefeated Damgaard, Leija, 2x Ward, Gamache, etc Vinny beat an overrated Kostya Tszyu, very overrated. Like I said, Crawford is a better fighter. If he was so confident against boxers, he would have went after Jr. He never did, he knew he was going to get the everloving shitz kicked out of him man. If you can't accept that, then you're clearly not too knowledgeable about what went on in 2005.
Not sure if Terrance would have done the now historic 'Drunken Dork' dance but I think he would have wound up on his face or back within 9
Crawford is a true technician my G . I truly enjoy the way he slowly adapts and begins to pick his opponents apart and eats them alive . The idea of him fighting a Prime Tszyu.. Scares the hell out of me and that's the honest truth . I don't like this fight for Bud . Tszyu was somewhat of a rare fighter , he was indeed skillful. Despite him being a very hard puncher, he never was reckless against his opponents and remained calm. He was a calculated fighter at times . As of right now I have to lean slightly towards Tszyu . Tszyu beats down Crawford.
That's a hard fight to pick. Tyszu fought in straight lines but his timing was impeccable. Crawford can move, has speed and matches Tyszu in the Power Department but his advantages would be his ability to be a switch hitter and still have success. 50/50 fight imo, but I lean towards Crawford. Terrence is no Mitchell or Judah, that's for sure.
When the rest of the crusades finally wake up and start their day this poll will invariably get closer.
