Kostya Tszyu vs Floyd Mayweather...who wins?

Amen!

Seriously, there is nothing special about Kostya that would make any trouble for Floyd. Kostya wasn't hard to hit, wasn't particularly fast of hand or feet and didn't have a particularly difficult style to counter. He was a basic fighter. He did it well, yes, but there's nothing there that would make Floyd suddenly become easy to hit.

 

I agree with this. The same was said when PBF faced Oscar as soon as he tastes that left hook he'll get KOed. The same was said when he faced Chico as soon as he tastes Chico's power he'll be done. What people always underestimate about PBF is one, he's extremely hard to hit cleany ask Oscar. Two even if he gets hit his chin has shown to be solid.
Like I said before banking on a guy to lose by KO that's never been knocked down or even really hurt in a fight is foolish. Zoo wouldn't KO PBF period so what does that leave him? He's not going to outbox PBF for 12 rounds. So that leaves you with only one option PBF by UD.:deal

 

Floyd by UD. KT was a very powerful guy but he wasn't a great boxer but very solid. He had a way of staying at perfect range to get maximum power and full extension on his punches but Floyd would be KT's Kyrptonite. He had many flaws and was easy to hit. A guy like Floyd would box his ears off the entire night.

 

Kostya Tsui is Chuck Norris of boxing. He wins.

 

as the fight goes on, Floyd would get more and more tentative to KT's punches, get more and more defensive, and eventually lose a UD

 

Even at his best (which was, admittedly, pretty damned impressive), KT would occasionally leave himself open to counters, especially with the right hand. Kt did flash a very good jab, and his timing would ensure that he'd have his moments, but I think that after a few rounds, Floyd solves his opponent's rather methodical approach, and wins enough of the later rounds to secure the UD.

It would, however, be quite the aesthecically pleasing fight to watch.

 

Indeed, MSTR.
I was at 'Unfinished Business' in Phoenix and was sh*tting myself when Sharmba handily won the first round. My wife was literally in tears, as she loves Kostya. Well...we all know what happened in the 2nd and 3rd!

 

You would pick PBF, Oscar,Shane,Ike and FORREST to beat Tszyu.

Say that again so us real boxing fans cant hear you.

Forrest got an ass licking of Tszyu as an Amatuer at the world titles if you dont believe me go to youtube.

Tszyu 32 Forrest 9

Ass whooping.

Idiotic comes to mind when you post.

 

Tszyu would win. Kostya had problems with physical swarmers, he excelled at dispatching slick boxers.

The only chance PBF would have had is the age difference, but I still believe KOstya would have KO'd PBF.

Arent we all so intersted to see exactly how much better PBF fares against Hatton?:yep

 

I think you are HIGHLY under rating Kostya if you think PBF stops him. Kostya had a very good chin, and was a truely elite fighter. It would be very close, and I would probably pick a PBF UD at this stage, but I don't see him countering him at will. You should watch more Kostya Tszyu fights. I don't think you realise just how good a technician he was.

 

It was a stupid post by a stupid poster. No suprise there. Notice how all the fighters listed fought at higher weight classes for the majority of there career also.

 

I have the same very opinion. C Money. Every slick fighter Tszyu faced he beat why would it be any different because its PBF.

So Mayweather has defense and is a good counter puncher.
I doubt Tszyu would give PBF time to even rest and all he would do is stalk PBF like he did every other slick defensive guy.

You know Tsyzu is the only man ive heard PBF say he didnt want to fight.
He was once quoted PBF as saying that he wouldnt fight Tszyu until he was as old as Roger was when Tszyu beat Roger. In the article it went on to say i found this comment strange a strange one by Floyd as Tszyu was already 35 years of age and Roger was 34 when he fought Tszyu.

So that meant to me anyway he was never going to fight Tszyu as he was to **** scared he seen what happened to Judah.

 

The way I see it is that Kostya presents a very unique problem to Floyd, one that he has never really faced before. A guy who provides EFFECTIVE pressure, yet who can also counter punch and land FROM RANGE. Floyd provides Kostya trouble in that his defensive movemets are incredible, and he is every hard to hit for an orthadox fighter with his right hand. Whilst Floyd has the better movement, Kostya through his effective pressure much like Castillo can negate it. Kostya would sit and wait and would not come in open to Floyds attack. Floyd would have the quicker jab and single shots though, and the lead right hand may be one that troubles KT. This fight is neck and neck all the way IMO. KT would really rough him up inside and be looking to take all of PBF movement away from him. Very close UD to Mayweather IMO, yet could easily go either way. The reason I pick Floyd, is because after watching a YOUNG KT vs Roger, he seemed to have trouble landing the right hand in this fight, against a somewhat similar style of fighter.

 

There are more idiots appearing evrey day now MSTR.

Fans that have never watched tape of a guy or have never read about them either.

I cant believe that its so hard to believe that Tszyu could maybe beat PBF Prime for Prime.
Whats so hard to believe. 1 fighter in the ring equals a 50% chance and the other you guessed it 50%.

:good

 

I agree with you but your talking about a raw Tszyu the Zoo of 2001 was the elite Tszyu he would stand more of a chance i feel.
