    You can't compare the 2 until both are retired.

    Not to get off subject, but 1 fight I would have loved to see Tyszu have at 140 would have been Antonio Diaz! That would have been a good one. As far as Margacheato, his whole career is tainted to me, had he beaten Tyszu at some point, that win would have had to have been controversial, especially after Wrap-Gate! Lol

    No way is Tyszu the ATG Jr. Welterweight.

    **** yeah Antonio Diaz !

    Good call, being from the UK we didn't get to see much of him after the Mosley fight but I remember first seeing him against Lucero, quality fighter.

    Along with Yori Boy Campas, Diaz was one of my favourite Mexican fighters to watch of the last 20 years.

    No clue but Vince was on a pretty good streak after beating Tyszu with wins over Mickey Ward and Franky pendleton, it would have made alot of sense to have a rematch.

    I'm sure Phillips would've given him the chance. Did Kostya want to taste that right hand again was the big question at that time.

    I liked Campas, but I loved seeing my Boy El Feroz take him to school! That **** was Epic!

    Oh yeah, Phillips was a guy that was willing to fight anybody. he'd have rematched Tyszu if it was an option. Not sure that it was though.

    Crawford is grossly underrated here.

    The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.

    This quote reminds me of Fernando's career, I thought he'd go on to become an ATG when he was coming through but he gave some great fights and action before he started to fade.

    You have to favor Tszyu here at this point though.

    Tszyu loved fighting boxers. He's a classic pressure fighter, a pure boxers worst nightmare.
