I think Tszyu might have a chance of a TKO win over Floyd at 140 as Kostya had decent hand speed and serious power. But far more likely is a Mayweather UD IMO. Floyd would just tap and backpedal for 12 rounds. He could do it too. Floyd's defensive skills win him the spoils. The Pacquiao that beat Hatton versus prime Tszyu is a fascinating match-up also! I think Pacquiao wins a decision or possibly scores a late-rounds stoppage against prime KT. The Marquez fights shouldn't be held against Pacquiao IMO as he showed clear progress and improvement in fights with Oscar, Hatton and others. And we are talking about a fight at 140.
So let's see if I am understanding this CORRECTLY!!! A Prime 27 year old Tszyu got TKO'd by Vince Phillips and Tszyu looked completely gassed by round 7...before being Knocked-out on his feet.... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpPA2u1iLNE"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpPA2u1iLNE[/ame] And you mutha'fukas believe that Tszyu would just BLOW through Mayweather. WOW!!! You know there was a time when The Floyd-Haters post about Mayweather had a little logic to them...(although very small). But Lately (over the past 18 months or so)...you mutha'fukas' have gotten out of hand.
Floyd would eek it out...He is a different level of fighter to Tszyu, even though they are both top notch operators. Tszyu is worse stylistically for Floyd than vice versa...but Floyd just has a little to much overall for this to be a major factor in the end.
floyd wide UD . kosta would get frustrated by the movement and not landing cleanly , thus becoming more agresssive but wilder and easier to pick off
This is a hard one, but I only see one outcome. Although I see it as being a lopsided win round by round for FMJ I can EASILY see FMJ going down once or even twice in the fight making the ending score cards close. My guess is it would be hella boring with Mayweather pitty patting his way to a UD. Still a UD win, but one of his hardest or tensest ever. That timing of Kostya was impeccable, but no way he wins that fight.
Kostya couldn't just walk in and over power Floyd, and he couldn't out box him. Floyd would counter Kostya all night and stop him late. Kostya was great against southpaws, but Floyd isn't a southpaw, and the shoulder roll and the counters coming after would land on Kostya at will. Floyd tko in 10...
well if this fight takes place before his hypothetical victories over Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, and Duran (all on the same night) then I think Floyd knocks him out in Round 1. If it's after I think Floyd takes a wide UD due to being spent from his four hypothetical victories over these four ATG's.
Kostya and PAc both did not rematch men who beat them. Oh, PAc did rematch Morales like a year later lol..., but he knew EM was past it lol...
Roger Mayweather gave Tzsyu some trouble and won 4 rounds when they fought. Also, that wasn't a prime Roger but that was a prime Tzsyu. With that said Money May UD!
Which 4 rounds did you give him bruz? I think from memory I only gave him one...He grabbed and clinched the hell out Tszyu all night. Did land some good right hands early on but really fought completely in survival mode from a pretty early stage. Kostya was a bit frustrated, I dont remember him having to much trouble winning rounds decisively thought, just he was spoiled out of putting him away but I havent seen that one in a while.
Floyd Mayweather at 140 [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs9QPtI_Eo0[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Evm562QLq2M[/ame] I'd love to see Kosta Tsyzu try and time Mayweahter. Good luck.
Kostya was very good against southpaws, I don't know lol... Kostya might win a round before being stopped late by Floyd...
