Kosta Tszyu vs. today's fighters

dont get mad.

JMM is over rated and isnt worth of rate in 140 at all. His opposiotion at any weight class he has won is mediocre at best.

Very Good wins are washed up Barrera and Casa.

He would get mutilated at 140 by lot of guys and Tszyu bounce JMM at canvas like ball.

I am telling you, He is living up with Schooling one dimensional Pacman.
He would have wo pac if not spending 90% of those fights at canvas.

 

absolutely Right!:thumbsup

 

His win was not impressive despite the KO. He struggled with the pressure Diaz put on him.

Joel was 37/38 years old and had already been beaten by Santa Cruz and barely survived Katsidis. His durability had plummeted and that's why he was stopped in an even fight -- majority draw-- up to that point.

 

A prime JMM was two, maybe three, weight classes smaller than Tszyu.


Anyway, I have little doubt that Pacquaio beats him. I think Alexander probably beats him. I don't think Bradley has the defensive style to beat him though, and that Bradley gets knocked out. I'd give Khan about a 30% chance, the same way I'd give Khan about a 60% chance against Maidana. He's disciplined enough and conditioned enough that he can just play keep-away for 12 rounds.

 

this, noone likes to admit it but diaz was the favourite for that fight

 

I think Tszyu beats all except Pac .... but even there he has a very live chance tbh.
Pac is not a non stop pressure fighter he darts in and out .... and Tszyu is a master of timing so .. if he times that right hand when Pac darts in it could be lights out.

I still think Pac wins 7 or 8 out of 10.

Personally id have loved to see Tszyu vs Mayweather as defensive athletic wizards seemed to be no problem to time for him.
You would have to make Mayweather the favorite but for some reason i think the stylistic matchup favors Tszyu.

 

lazcano a bigger name than diaz atsch

 

JMM puts up a good fight though, crazy ass mexican pride. He held himself well against pacs attacks on the 2 occasions.

 

Stop peddling this **** and then run when someone calls your bluff like you did last time. I know you knew Hector personally but you look pretty stupid when you make this claim.

Tszyu beat Lopez 97-93.

 

Will you forever remember how JMM got outboxed by Freddie Norwood or how he never showed he was a class above the smaller CJ?

Will you forever remember how JJ demolished Barrera in 5 rounds?

or how Moreles got ouboxed by Rahim?

or how Chavez lost to Randall?

You always overrate Mexican boxers on the CForum. You think Genaro Hernandez is a HOFamer for chist's sake...

 

Bigger name?:think A better LW? Yes. Go watch his fights against Johnston and Castillo. He might have been screwed out of an upset against Hatton as well...

 

Zoo couldn't even beat Vince Phillips

 

Styles make fights and all fighters have their off nights, can't just keep rehashing the Philips fights without taking into account Tszyu's wins.

Unless you are just a hater ofcourse in which case there is no point debating this.

 

He only gets beaten by a crack addict fighting for his next fix...that's some desperation fighting right there..so he should have no problem with the fighters named in this thread...

 

IMO Zoo would RAIL Pacquiao...while Pac is an offensive machine, he has slowed down a tad and doesn't throw as many combinations with bad intent as he did at the lighter weights.

You have to smother Zoo and keep him close, Pac's whole thing is timing, jumping in and out, in and out...that kind of thing is Zoo's bread and butter.

I think Bradley could give him some trouble, and I would have LOVED to see Zoo-PBF, that would be a tough fight for both guys.
