Mosley vs Tszyu at 140

It's funny how people bash Tszyu for quitting yet other people have too.

 

At no point did i state it was relevant mate. Just that it happened. You drew to that conclusion, so perhaps that's the way your mind thinks?

 

Good to see someone making an actually intelligent post. To all the idiots who say that he would quit on his stool, go punch yourselves in the face. He was 35 years old when that happened. How many guys that age can go through such a grueling fight. I was watching prime KT yesterday and the man was a beast. So quick and powerful. It is just plain wrong to judge him by the Hatton fight. IMO he could beat Mosley, although he would have to really back him up with the one-two, much like Forrest did. I agree this would be a very close fight.

 

i know its ****ing ridiculous the man does what he does his whole career and ****ing wankers rember him off the PERCEPTION of one event :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

Tszyu is a legend period

 

I posted it.

And you posted that KT lost to Vince Phillips - which is about as relevant. KT decided to have a right hand battle with a guy with a great chin. A dumb move - he paid for it, and learned from it.

So how was YOUR post regarding Phillips any more or less relevant than one regarding Forrest? Phillips and Mosely are completely different fighters.

You can't go ape**** over one comparison, when you yourself began the whole "If he can't beat A, no way does he beat B" thing.

your logic was Mosely was better than Phillips, so KT can't beat Mosely.

Tszyu was better than Forrest. So no way does SSM beat him.

So what does that mean - a draw? See how that logic works?

 

To all the stupid newbies in this thread.... Just stating your opinion without explaining how you arrived at it does not prove anything. It does lead most of us to believe that you just simply do not know what you are talking about. If you want to be taken seriously it would definitely be something worth looking into.

 

Pea, KT is a much better boxer then you give him credit for. He had great timing, and was great at changing the pace on his shots. He was also very good at breaking down good boxers, and if anything stuggled more when someone stood toe 2 toe with him. I said it is basically a pick em fight, and i said I "could" see KT winning if he could work the right gameplan. Same goes for Mosley. My message was to all the newbies who jump on and say..... "MOsley KO 5". LIke that is supposed to be really meaningful. BTW Shane lacks a good jab, as he too often paws it, and has shown tht he doesn't like getting backed up particularly off the jab-cross combination which were KT's best punches. As for you comments about being Australian, I could say the same thing to you about supporting american fighters. Don't be such a ****ing hypocrite.

 

As for this particular comment, yes it is very stupid. However you have much more credability then the average newbie as you do make a lot of good posts about boxing. However that said, to think Mosley KTFO Kostya is flat out ridiculous. These guys were both great fighters, to predict a one sided victory shows you are very biased.

 

I can only laugh when people predict a "ASSWHOPPING" or "easy ko" when it involves two top fighters. That rarely happens.

 

This would've been an awesome match up. It's a pick'em fight, but I'll give a slight edge to mosley.

 

Fair enough. I don't have a problem with that analysis, but surely you can see how jumping on and posting one liners can be misleading.

 

I can see where your coming from, although I just usually don't post on such threads I can't be bothered with. I feel the same but, when you see threads that you have already answered too in detail being repeated again.

 

i think a case can be mounted for both fighters

mosley- imo has better handspeed than tszyu not bu a lot though (tszyu speed IS UNDERATED)

 

**** hit the post button by accident, anyways back to what i was saying, mosley maybe gets the edge on hand speed, if mosley lets his hands go and keeps good constant combinations i think he would win by sd.

on the other hand is tszyu's right hand, was there a better punch at 140?? i think not. if tszyu keep it simple with counterpunching and straight right hands he wins by ko in the latter rounds.

 

Tszyu has fought a lot of tough fighters in there prime, and dominated all the really good ones.

Yea he got koed, it happens in boxing, but he came back and still dominated. :good
