    I'm not sure if I buy that. In the ams he fought Vernon Forrest who was twice his size and schooled him. I think this is almost a pick em fight with a slight edge favoring Trinidad.

    as kostyas career progressed he looked far better and far improved from his loss from phillips who by the way fought tremendous that fight, kostya has had really tough fights which have shown were his style and skill have prevalled but im guessing u missed those fights and tell me this which fight was Kostya mechanical in?

    u really gotta think beyond size here when u think of these to fighters, think of there skills and how each other can exploite each others weakness kostya was a master with straight rights and breaking opponents, tito yes has the size and is a great fighter to put away kostya but i dont think he will win by ease just by forcing his size and strength on kostya which many people belive! kostya can really give tito trouble in this fight!

    Kosta is one of my favorite all time fighters but I am with the rest the of the guys here...Tito is simply too big and strong from kosta. I thought we were talking about Kosta vs Tito? so why bring in Mayweather and Forbes to this conversation? :think Did you see Margarito vs Cotto? that's a perfect example of a guy being too big for the other guy.:bbb

    I made a thread before bewteen Tsyzu and cotto and quite the majority said that kostya would win and this was before the fight with margarito even at welterweight Tszyu would win, so im saying that size is not a really thing to worry about like somebody already said about the vince phillips vs Tszyu fight, and i brought them into the convo as they have beenin with bigger fighters and still manged to perfrom great

    HEIGHT DOESNT MAKE SIZE...JUST BECAUSE IM 5'9 AND UR 5'11 DOESNT MEAN UR BIGGER THAN ME CUZ UR TALLER...TITO AT THE SHOULDERS AND CHEST WAS MUCH BIGGER THAN KOSTYA...

    TITO BY KO

    And I agree..Cotto is a smaller Welter and he got dropped and wobbled a few times when fighting at 140. I agree that Kosta would have beaten Cotto and most likely KOd him. I just think Tito was a much harder puncher and could punch with both hands. I am sure Kosta would have dropped Tito in the early rounds but Tito would get up and finish him in the later rounds. This fight would have been a replay of Tito vs Yori Campas (a huge puncher even now).

    If Hatton could walk him down Tito most certainly would.

    p.s. Tito is quite popular on the boards today.

    Tito would Knock Kosta Tszyu the **** out. This is not even competitive.

    Oh and Kosta is not 5-8, when he was in the ring with Vivan harris he was like six inches shorter then Viv.

    Good job he never fought Harris as well.

    Now that would have been one hell of a beatdown.
