Ok, so maybe I should post this in the Fantasy Fight forum.. but out of these two guys at their best who wins.....
Ill be honest with everyone here. Like these guys way to much and respect both of them at what they bring to our sport. Draw.
Kosta was unwell leading up to that fight due to a change in supplements. He had been using protein powders shipped in from overseas that left him feeling lethargic. Unfortunately he didn't know why he was feeling drained until he stopped using them, at one stage increasing the amount used because he thought he may be lacking intake to train efficently. That was his excuse for the loss anyway. As for the fight...Dela Hoya by close UD in a brutal match up.
I see DLH actually having an easier time with Tszyu than he did wth Chavez, and I actually believe DLH KO Tszyu early.
Not the same thing at all. Phillips' success was mainly due to his high workrate, ability to take Tszyu out his stride and big right hand. Hatton's was also due to his work rate and crowding ability. All things which DLH conspicuously lacks. I think DLH beats him as I think the style matchup favours him, but I think it goes to the decision.
That wasn't at 140. The 140 Oscar is a different animal entirely. 20 pounds and years later we get the Sturm debacle.
Would have been a great fight. It amazes me how people think they can precisely pick who will win what prospective fight without any doubt.
In fantasy land Tszyu as in reality this fight wouldve never happened It would be a real brawl Tszyu KO 11
