Frankie Randall vs Kostya Tszyu

I cant believe anyone picks Randall over Tszyu ........

 

People grow old...... Randall looked horrid and faded against that French dude in the late 1990s named Kahalid Rahilou or something, and he was out-boxed at 147 by Oba Carr in '99.........:shock:

However, Kostya Tszyu looked burned out and slow against Ricky Hatton in 2005.....:tired

Prime-4-prime, "Randall-Tszyu" match-up fairly well.........:bbb:good

MR.BILL

 

The Tszyu that beat Judah and Mitchell beats any Randall i can remember, maybe its me who is getting old though ?

 

Randall also had a much tougher task of fighting & beating Chavez to the punch 2x over, and either dropping or staggering him as well in 1994, than what Kostya Tszyu had to deal with in 2000 against a shot Chavez......... Those 6 long yrs made a big difference...

MR.BILL

 

kostya comes from behind to win late

 

kostya was much more talented. Randall beat an aged Chavez that was out of shape.

 

Boloney..... Randall was a year older than Chavez and was no rookie who was fresh..... Randall had also battled drug and alcohol problems prior to 1994....:deal

Granted, Randall trained his ass off with trainer Aaron Snowell for his two fights with Chavez, but Chavez was no slouch in 1994....... Chavez underestimated Randall in their initial fight.... Still, all excuses aside, Chavez was in great shape for the rematch, but Randall still battered and schooled Chavez before getting reamed on a bogus technical decision loss due to a cut on Chavez' head.........:rofl:bart:fire

MR.BILL:bbb

 

How would you have felt about anyone picking Vince Phillips to beat him?

 

Mr Bill Chavez had fought more than 20 times against quality opponents. Randall I doubt had been in intense wars with fighters like the one's Chavez had fought. Chavez had only trained four weeks for the first fight.

 

He had two intense wars with Edwin Rosario.

 

Boxing is 80 % mental and 20 % physical. Zoo was not focused, had personal problems and a shitty training camp. He should have postponed the fight.

He fought a stupid fight with a I hit you and you hit me attitude with total disregard for defense. Vince hit him with the same punch over and over again and Zoo never bothered to adjust or move his head......eventually he ran out of gas and Vince closed the show.

However, Vince took some absolute bombs right on the kisser in that fight and showed a great chin and stone cold determination, similar to Tyson /Douglas., I am very skeptical that Randall's chin would take those blows............Vince was on fire that night, no doubt about it, sadly he could never muster up the same intensity again.

 

Randall was not chinny:nono Just one of those things he got caught,besides Primo Ramos could punch and he was a pretty solid guy. You should know that really anyone could be kod if caught on the button. Randall went 10 rounds in a very tight decision loss to Huge punching Rosario. Took Chavezs best shots i have no doubt an in shape well prepared Randall(like the one who beat a fading but still very good Chavez) would stop KT in 10 rounds. I think Randall has him in every category except power but hey thats pretty damn close too. Randall would be all wrong for Tszyu hed beat him worst than Vince phillips did. Yey i know Tszyu improved after that but, it wouldnt make a difference here

Randall ko10 Tszyu.

 

I picked him over Tszyu:yep People called me crazy but i knew how good Phillips was when he was 100%. They didnt have online betting then should have went to Vegas. Isee Randall as a similar but better version of Vince.

 

Power might have been the big factor in this fight. Both fighters were very good edge to Tsyzu.

Tsyzu punched very hard at 140 harder than Randall in my opinion and was physically very good at pressuring his opponents.

Tsyzu win for me in a good fight.
