    As much as I like Manny I think I Gotta say Kostya takes this one by a big right hand KO.

    No. But saying Tzyu will take out Pac 10x out of 10 fights is a stupid post.
    Im a fan of Tzyu before actually( i thought he was a mini Tyson back then). But comparing to Pac..the distance in skills and greatness are far.

    This is the proper responce to anything "charlievint" posts. Eveything he posts is based on the logic that Tszyu "didn't have the counter punching or boxing ability or was no where near as good as a prime JMM"


    258 or 268 wins (i'v heard both multiple times) 11 losses, so closer to 300.

    Says the guy who has only seen HL's of Tszyu vs Phillips. Stop talking

    No matter how many times you make the JMM remark it's still just as incorrect as the first time you said it.

    I think Manny would win, maybe even destroy Kostya !!

    Manny's a special fighter "RIGHT" now and has a lot of momentum and Greatness about him, i don't think a prime Tszyu could beat him !!

    I think Manny's too agile and dangerous minded, he can hurt any man alive with his punches i feel... They have bad intentions in every one of them..

    Manny's a dangerous little man in a boxing ring

    I have to say Pacquiao by late stoppage. I didn't have to think about this very long. Pacquiao is just too fast and very powerful. Tszyu is an all-time great Jr. Welterweight
    champion, but I think Manny is just that much better.

    You have no clue. I have said before I was a fan of Tzyu even before he tasted defeat and was saddened by his ko loss.

    Tszyu eats southpaws for breakfast. Tszyu could counterpunch, box ad slug with the best of them. He was a allround fighter with more power then Cotto. I think if Manny fought toe to toe with Tszyu like he did with Cotto, he would get knocked out. Manny's best chance is to try and outbox him, but I just see Tszyu wearing him down for a late stoppage

    While I would pick Tszyu here, How Pac fared against Morales means absolutely nothing.

    The thread says CURRENT PAcman.

    Manny has made SIGNIFICANT improvements in each of his last five fights.

    Most boxers don't improve that much between their first and last fight.

    Manny-Morales was competitive and a good series.

    Present Manny stops that Morales in the first five rounds, even adjust-ing for size.

    Tszyu is the type of fighter pac would feast on, he'd be defenseless against pac's in and out assault

    Saying "Tszyu is a robot and very hittable" would demonstrate that you don't have a clue, contrary to what you'd like people to believe.

    Tough fight. I have to give it to Manny. His speed really is what separates him from the other fighters. This is no different. He can bang and has shown he can take welterweight power. Tszyu has a punchers chance. I'd say Pac wins more times than not.

    LOL, once he is in the ring with Mayweather you will see that he has not improved that much once he is getting frustrated that PBF ain't trading with him like his previous cherry picked opponents.

    The man has no jab, can't cut off the ring, don't move his head and eats a tremendous amount of leather. Fact.

    Vince Philips is a BIG GUY and you can find many faults on him but the man got heart ,a good set of skills and a GREAT chin. He took some absolute bombs right on the button from Zoo...............no way in hell is Manny taking those shots without getting ktfo.

    His best bet would be try to box in and out and avoid a slug fest by all costs. I doubt he has the discipline and will go gung ho and that will play right into Zoo's hand. Pac is relative easy to hit and the question is how many straight rights by a one punch KO artist is he gonna take........

    If he fights as reckless as in the Cotto fight without listening to his corners advise he is going to be counted out.

    Really a pick 'em fight for me, but I am giving a very slight edge to Tszyu.

    He would definitely time Pac repeatedly on the way in, and with KT's right hand power, Pac would not last the distance.

    That said, Pac could also bombard Tszyu with flurries in the early rounds, not letting Tszyu get off due to his handspeed. If he were to succeed in doing so, pac would win the fight.

    Regardless of the winner, I am sure that this fight would not go the distance. Tszyu wins 6 times out of 10 via KO.

    Nah....you're just biased about KT. Look...he's a good fighter...possibly great....but as we break it down he was limited. Good counter puncher, Great power but really who has he beaten to be considered better than JMM? Zab? KT had a great AM career and he was a truly GREAT AM fighter like Tarver was.....but that doens't mean he had a better career as a pro. He won the Jr WW title but never dominated in a way to make him the very best. No matter how you want to spin your point of view the facts remain facts and KT isnt as skilled or as multi demensional as JMM.
