PBF vs Tyszu @140

Your credibility just did the Zab Chicken Dance.
If you watch that first round in slow mo, you'll note that Zab lands barely anything besides 2 notable shots.
And in the second, Tszyu was kicking his ass all over the place.

 

FLoyd would counter Tszyu, Tszyu is an acurate puncher but wouldnt do much with Floyd, too quick to fast.

I cant see how a fighter liek Tszyu who has never beaten an ELITE prime fighter woudl have a chance?

If a brawler liek HAtton can submit him, he would get seriously fustrated with Floyd.


FLoyd very wide UD

 

Tszyu by ko.

 

I don't need to read anything dumbass I know boxing. Zoo earlier in his career was a much more complete boxer. Later in his career he fell in love with his power not to mention he lost to a crack head in Vince Phillips quit on his stool against Hatton and his two best wins are Mitchell and Zoo hardly that impressive. Also he refused to move up to make fights with the likes of Shane and Oscar he's overrated. People like you can't see the difference between an ATG like PBF and his uncle who was simply good it's a horrible comparison not worthy of debate. What people like you always do is underrate defense and betting on a KO puncher to beat a defensive wizard probably the best of his era who has never been knocked down never really hurt in a fight is stupid. PBF would take Zoo's right hand away and simply outbox him. Zoo isn't a better boxer than PBF period and like I said earlier he's not going to KO him either. PBF by UD is the smart pick here.:deal

 

Coming from a Zoo fan who has one of the worst resumes ever for a so called ATG.:rofl:rofl

 

Resumes are very overrated. If I were to rank FMJ on resume he would rank lower than many who are not as good as him. For example Winky Wright has a much better resume than FMJ. FMJ's resume is not that great really. His best wins are over old(35+) past their prime opponents and boxers who were broken by other men, namely Tszyu and others. His best win ->Hatton was a stylistic dream match-up for him. For us to see how good he is really is he has to fight Cotto, Mosley, Williams, Clottey and not JMM, Pac etc.

 

PBF via mid-late stoppage. Fight closish on points at the time.

 

Floyd UD

 

I'd pick a prime Tszyu

 

Actually what many consider Floyds best wins are Corrales and Castillo. WHo many consider the best fighters in the world at 130 and 135. Neither fought Kosta Tszyu. And both were prime. Both were more versatile then Zoo and both fought better competition.

Zab Judah never was broken by Zoo. He went on to become the undisputed welterweight champion of the world. Oscar would have kicked Zoo's ass at any weight at any age.

And I believe Hatton broke Zoo and ended his career.

 

Tyszu by late TKO.

 

Corrales & Castillo are decent wins but Tszyu was better than both of 'em & would have had a better chance of beating Floyd IMO.

 

Id pick amateur times zoo, he was too power happy in pros, you could see what a great boxer he was against Vernon Forrest in amateurs.

 

I think all the tangibles here favour Tszyu.
Tszyu was an excellent boxer. He never got outboxed in his career. Judah was only able to outbox him for a round before Tszyu broke him down technically. **** even Floyd took 6 rounds to get on to of Zab. Tszyu Loved to fight people on the outsade. Loved it when they ran cause he knows how to cut off the ring. Also Tszyu would have a size advantage in this fight as he was a huge 140 pounder and floyds prime weight is a bit lower. You can cite Tszyu two losses all you want, but these two strange cases suggest a vulnerability against physically strong fighters with granite chins, not Floyds M.O. . The tangibles favour Tszyu in every case except one - which is the big one - Floyds ability. Floyd should be the favourite here because he's just too good But anybody trying to sell their floyd prediction on the basis of styles is wrong.

:finger

 

When has Zoo ever faced a defensive counter puncher? Zoo was more of a counter puncher himself. He'd set traps and try to out think his opponent coming in which allowed him to land the harder cleaner blows. How would he fair against a guy where he'd have to initiate all of the contact? Comparing Zoo's fight against Zab and Floyds is silly. Zoo scored a one punch KO, which had nothing to do with breaking Zab down, but simply setting him up for the overhand right. And I'd hardly classify Hatton or Philips have havin granite chins giving the fact that Phillips got TKO'd by Terron Millet just a few fights later and 4 times overall and Hatton got KO'd by Floyd who hadnt had a KO victory in some years.

Maybe Zoo didnt hit has hard as you think?
