Bad style for Tzsyu I think. Too much intensity but, having said that I think it will be a close fight. Both are very good fighers, have good power and a good chin. Tszyu was eating right hands from Phillips for a good 10 or so rounds. If Tszyu can avoid the majority of right hands from Mosley then I would say 50/50. I wonder why they never met in the amateurs given that they both fought Forrest???
I'll take Mosley. Mosley is durable and fights going forward, unlike the other speedy fighters Tszyu fought and beat impressively. I'd still take Tszyu over Mayweather.
I never said that. But Sharmba is still used as a stepping stone to show how "good" a fighter supposedly is. That has been more then evident with both the "supposed" best p4p fighter in the world Mayweather and Cotto. Tszyu beat him at a time when he was not only top ranked, but at his best and considered to a very dangerous fighter who was doing quite well. Tszyu destroyed a better version of Sharmba then both Cotto and Mayweather, and this was after not fighter for 2 years and having surgery. Something almost all of you said could not be done, and many experts said was a bad idea and that he would lose. :hi: Give Tszyu the credit he deserves. :bbb
That's as plain ****ing ridiculous as saying anybody that loses to Vernon Forrest twice has zero chance of beating Tszyu. Oh, I forgot to add this. :rofl Apparently that proves my point or something.
Neither guy can be written off in this... Mosley would let Tszyu fight from a distance and eventually wear some serious shots. He wouldn't be able to avoid Tszyu as well as Floyd and Mosley would get caught trying to press the action... it's a pick 'em fight, as is Tszyu vs (insert elite fighter name here). If Tszyu has room to use his power, you can almost guarantee he will.
Id go with Shane, too fast, likely plenty of power at 140. Of course KT would have a decent chance with that power but Shane would be the favorite IMO. Its funny that Shane never fought at 140.
What can you say, Axe, some people 't just don't get it. Anyway, Tszyu by mid to late round KO. There is a reason Mosley jump straight to Welterweight, the reason was Tszyu. Tszyu is very underrated. Not a flashy style, but oh so effective.
Tszyu was one of the best ever at 140, but I believe 140 would have been Mosley's best weightclass. Tszyu would have a good shot at winning here but I'd make Mosley a slight favourite as well. Very competetive and interesting matchup though.
My bad, was thinking of Corley. Thanks for the correction. :good The rest still stands however. Because Sharmba would have either been the same or better then fighting Corley.
