Imo, the only style of fighters that give Floyd problems are southpaws. Pac would give Floyd problems in the beginning of their fight if they were to fight. Floyd rarely has problems with righties...even if they had power. Kostya could not take it to the body. Floyd's shoulder roll spoils Kostya's style, and imo Floyd stops kostya in 10.
Well said. Kt at that age against PBf it would be tough for him. In his Prime it might be a different fight.
Castillo isnt a southpaw he gave PBF nightmares. IMO. But hey if the fight had of happened it would of been better and bigger than when Tszyu fought Hatton in England. I still feel PBF would beat Tszyu at that age but it would have been the one matchup i wanted to see during Tszyu;s whole career.
Every time I check the poll/votes in a Kostya versus "who ever" thread, Kostya comes out almost even or better against guys who are/were better than him. I've even read stories going as far as to say...Kostya beat Forrest-then Kostya's fans go well, not in the pro's...Shane and Dlh bypassed him. Kostya is overrated, and he never even gained revenge against Phillips. Kostya is not in Floyd's class. The poll is 13-13???...lol.
Castillo didn't give Floyd nightmare's...he gave Floyd's balls nightmare's. He hardly hit Floyd clean in both fights. He tried to rough Floyd up, and it didn't work. Kostya lost to a man who took his power, and gave back his own. Floyd made/makes a living at doing just that.
I was a big fan of Kostya and I've never liked Floyd much. And this fight is far from clear cut. Remember the dance steps Kostya taught to young Zab? If the fight ends inside the distance, Floyd loses. However, the betting money would have to be on Floyd here. He is, IMO, the better boxer. The most likely outcome would be an 8-4 (or thereabouts) UD in favour of Floyd.
What a load of BS. Castillo IMO was winning that fight. and PBF looked poor. You have just gone to PBF's biggest ball sucking fan. He looked **** against Castillo and Dela Hoya and they were both righties. If PBF was half the man Tszyu was he might get as many fans or votes as Tszyu does now agin these matchups. Tszyu wasnt scared of anyone. He was great for our sport which far from the end of what PBF brought to boxing.
Mayweather edged Castillo in the first fight then dominated him in the second. Tszyu would never land that overhand right that he landed on Zab on Floyd. He'd get dominated, this fight wouldnt be close at any point in Kosta's career. Get off zoo's nut sack.
