    Kostya could have KO'd Floyd in ANY round from 1 - 12.

    And I'd have given him a 30-40 % chance of doing just that.


    But the more likely scenario would have been a clear UD in Floyd's favour.

    Floyd hasn't fought a pure puncher like Tszyu everyone know Mosley hits hard but Tszyu really hits he really hits hard.

    Any way Martinez and Manny would spank Floyd right now. Floyd faced Southpaws in his prime couldn't put them away and they were not headhunters. These guys box better and move better and are 10x more dangerous than Corrley and Judah. What would happen and how did Floyd get away with this rep based on "could and would haves" - He is not only on ESB rest of world knows he ain't nothingbut a slick ass boxer with no adjustment skills to merrit any type of ATG status. Fading away every second he stays inactive.

    Are you serious he was ahead on 2 judges scorecards by 4 rounds and one dodgy judge had it a draw at the time of the retirement.

    This what gets me. PIPO.

    I think Floyd is a really great talented boxer. One of the best weve seen in the last 20 years.

    But people down playing Tszyu's chances need there head examined.

    I mean Judah gave Floyd a fight even tested him.

    Yes Ive seen Tszyu lose but it was never to the style fighter Floyd is.

    I dont want to here about resumes they make no ****ing sense in the ring when it comes down to a fight like this.

    Its styles.

    And does Tszyu have or had the power to KO Floyd well the answer is a simple ****ing YES.

    Does Floyd have the skills to win **** YES.

    Is it a easy fight for both men.

    **** NO.

    we can make cases for both men about resumes and who they have beaten.
    But syle wise i never seen many slick quick fighters get the best of Tszyu.

    They might for a round then when he decided to hit them hard so they felt his Power they all were like **** no.

    The men that were good against Tszyu fought inside away from his power so they didnt have a chance to be on the end of his punch's.

    Now from all the fights ive watched with Floyd when did anyone see him fight on the inside like that.

    And i watched the tape were a old slow Mosley caught PBF bad and had him if he had more killer instinct but he went into his shell.

    Hopefully people that read my response are not quick to judge that im saying Tszyu would win thats not what i meant at all im just saying that.

    Floyd fighting a Prime Kostya Tszyu is a tougher fight than.

    His fights with
    Judah
    Corrales
    Mitchell
    Gatti
    Baldomir
    Mitchell
    Marquez
    Mosley

    And thats the truth. Its a tough tough fight.

    In the first three rounds of any fight, Judah is superior to Floyd.

    This is true of third-party opponents and also head-to-head.




    Judah never saw the third round with Kostya.

    It's very possible Floyd wouldn't either.
