Kostya Tszyu vs Pacman

Tsyu by KO in probably round 5 or 6. They have similar styles and same power but Tzyu has better footwork and stamina. This will seal the deal.

 

****ing barnburner of a fight. i think pac would shade him on points simply for the fact that pac just has that little bit more energy to give.
having said that, theres not a fighter alive near kostyas weight that i dont give him a chance against and i wouldnt be surprised in the slightest if kostya chopped him up in a round or two.

 

Tough fight to call.

Pac by KO.

 

Someone's getting ktfo on this one. I find Tszyu having more power, but Pac's better footwork and angles will give him the edge.

 

pac by ko

 

ok ill quote you. happy now attention *****?

 

I'm going to use the same logic that the street rats *****s use when it comes to their god.

If Zab Judah was able to beat Kostya's ass for one round then Pac who is miles better than Zab would stop KT in two.

Pac KO 2.

 

kosta tszyu is an easy target. He is to stiff. He has no lateral movement. Tszyy ko in middle rounds.

 

Tszyu never really struggled with speed, he had more than excellent timing and patience and the speed he did have some difficulty ajuusting to where the out-fighters who backed away. Pac's in-and-out speed would suit him just fine.

Don't see a KO from either end, but still close: Tszyu MD



FYI I wouldn't bring up Hatton's (underrated) speed as he has a totally different style and essentially just smothered Tszyu and did everything he could to turn it from a boxing match into a dirty brawl

 

Tszyu was awesome in finding the right time and place for his right hand and about as good in setting it up. Manny is very good but his defence isn´t that good, I think Kostya can hurt and KO him. Tszyu is a better fighter than anyone Pac fought above 135 so far. I think he can take him. Not very confident in this pick though. Good fight.

 

Pac on points or Tszyu by KO. Can't decide which.

 

Tszyu had every south paws number would be an interesting fight but Tszyu knocks Manny out

 

I am a confirmed ******* but i cant help thinking that a southpaw who likes to jump in to the attack is just as likely to jump on to the end of Kostyas brutal straight righthand. I'm going KT by stoppage.

 

I've never been that big on Tszyu. I think his timing and the power he carries in that right hand are a worry, but I can't see Pacquiao getting stretched with one-punch or Tszyu landing consistently enough afterwards should he hurt Pacquiao to take him out.

I think he will hurt Pacquiao with right hands early as I think he'll be the first to establish his timing, but Pacquiao survives, starts to find his rhythm and overwhelms Tszyu with angles, speed and power and gets a stoppage at some point around 7 or 8.
