Prime Jose Luis Castillo vs. Prime Kostya Tszyu - Who wins?

Agreed Very tough fight to pick.

 

i dont think castillo's defense is leaky at all...he had really good head and waist movement....really underated if you ask me...

kostya would come straight forward cause he knew once he tagged you, you had to either go down or respect him

 

At light-welter Castillo would not cope with Tszyu's power, the 5lb difference between lightweight and light-welter would make a big difference.

To illustrate the point remember Chico Corrales stopped Castillo at lightweight and great fighter that he was (RIP) Tsyzu was a bigger puncher. Remember what Tszyu did to Zab Judah, when Judah has been stopped even at welterweight it is usually from an accumulation of punches, not from one shot. I still remember the funny dance and Zab's complaint to the ref!

Both good fighters but for me Tszyu would be able to land and had the power to stop Castillo. Good fight though.

 

YEAH, but kotsya couldnt fight inside like chico.....plus, chico's power was better than kostya, and it still took chico like 500 hooks to finally stop castillo, who still, never went down...:good

 

JLC by TKO. He's all wrong for Zoo who hates pressure.

 

Don't agree with the power, thats got to be Kostya for me especially at light-welter, plus the weight difference tips the balance.

 

I would back ZOO against anyone at LW

 

Castillo is the smaller man and the inferior technical boxer. Tszyu can simply outbox him all night if need be throwing occasional power punches. Tszyu's stamina was questionable, but he also hit hard enough to slow Castillo down.

 

Tszyu UD, I dont think he would look for the KO against Castillo, itll be easier to use his boxing skills.

 

Castillo

 

Tszyu is better than Castillo and bigger too.

Tszyu takes it

 

Prime Tszyu getting No LOve again.


What a Surprise.

Underated Zoo getting outboxed by a smaller guy like Castillo.

Next they will have Tszyu in his Prime losing to Coralles.

Then the week after will be Zoo losing in his Prime to Guzman.

Then after that it will be Zoo losing to Gavin Rees or Junior Witter.

In just about done with these idiots.

 

Watch Tszyu v Gonzalez and that is how i could see the fight playing out, although i think Castillo would be alot more competitive.

Tszyu late rounds stoppage.

 

Tszyu by stoppage in a war.

 

Great fight, couldn't pick a winner. Maybe I slightly shade toward Kostya, I think he has more tricks in his bag but I don't know if he would be able to pull any of them off against JLC. It might just turn into a bloody war.

If KT can hold him off with his jab-right hand and maintain some distance then KT all the way, if not then it's a katy bar the door slugfest that either guy could win.
