    Tszyu had Marquez like power the Marquez 4 IV version. I would give Kostya a punchers chance Tszyu lands on Pacquiao, it's over imo. Kostya right hand can put Pac to sleep.The thing is Pacquiao hasn't fought a legit 1 punch knock out puncher. I feel that Tszyu had the kind of scary power. I know Tszyu has a game plan to set it up and land that beautiful right on the button.:hey

    Tough one, guessing we are talking close prime like KT v Chavez or Judah type situations? If that's the case, its 60/40 pac slightly ahead. if it's the KT v Hatton its 90/10 Pac

    Tzsyu fought 11 southpaws from 33 fights including 6 foot 2 Hugo Pineda! A southpaw killer. He spent so much time fighting and training against the East German southpaws in the Amateurs . East Germany made most of their fighters southpaw because they were so hard to fight.

    His name is Dave Parriss, the most corrupt, incompetent and biased ref I have ever seen. Check out Rogan ***ton 1 and Barrera Khan. Absolutely disgraceful.

    I've never even thought about this match up before. I'll take Manny in a close pts win but in reality the fans win this one. Entertainment guaranteed.

    Tszyu would have a punchers chance, if he times one of Pac's rushes he could definitely do what Marquez did in their last fight. But let's be real it took 4 fights for Marquez to do that and against a faded Pacquiao.

    I don't like Tszyu's chances against Pac. He never dealt with pressure very well as shown by his losses to Hatton and Phillips and not many fighters put pressure on like Pac, his speed, angles, relentless style and power would see him eventually overwhelm Tszyu.

    I think Manny out works him but Kostya has a very real chance of winning this by KO.

    Interesting match-up... KT got that right hand and dude was a pretty good counter puncher with a great reaction time.

    Then again... This is Manny at his best w/Ariza in the mix.

    The speed wouldn't faze KT, He handled Judah with ease. 60/40 in Pac's favor. IMO

    Pacquiao Destroyed Barrera and Cotto. Come on. Who did Zoo actually beat?

    Pacquiao is just too fast, too skilled, too powerful and too well conditioned.

    Come on man.

    Don't mistake Pac running in and tripping over Marquez's foot while charging a hurt Marquez and getting caught with how Pac fights. Pac is a very smart fighter and hard to hit. His game isn't just rushing in. Pac would beat Kostya's ass.

    We are matching guys in their prime, not when they are at their worst.

    I don't think Marquez was better than Zoo. He lost to Maweather, Bradley, John (yes arguable loss), and Norwood. He couldn't deal with slickness. While Zoo struggled somewhat with pressure, you can't really hold the Hatton fight against him, as he was pretty much finished by that point and Hatton used illegal tactics IMO.

    I don't see Kostya ever losing to Bradley, John, or Norwood. He had the right style to beat Mayweather though that is a fight he could definitely lose as well.

    Again, Pacquaio is not very good on the inside. That is where you beat Kostya, you don't beat him on the outside or mid-range. I see Pacquaio being timed and ultimately knocked out IMO.

    Can barely be bothered doing this any longer

    May - brought him up 2 divisions, still failed to make weight

    Bradley - Knew 50yo Marquez couldnt keep up and so ran the entire fight. The ONLY time ive seen Bradley being scared enough to be a puss

    John - rewatch the robbery

    Norwood - JMM was starting out. That one is still heavily debated
