Mayweather late KO and it wouldn't be close. Tyszu's defense is very poor with no headmovement and he often got outboxed and tee'd off on by fighters not fit to carry Floyd's jockstrap. Tyszu was floored by Hurtado, stopped by Phillips and Hatton, hurt by Judah and outboxed at times by Mitchell and Ukral. He also had a tough time catching up to the C Class Mitchell in their first contest. Kostya did have a big punch but are you telling me Corrales, Delahoya, Hatton, Judah, Castillo couldn't punch? So Tyszu is getting beat to the punch, hes getting rained on by Floyd's best combinations, hes not landing his own shots. What other outcome is there than Mayweather late round KO?
Vince Phillips , Kostya took for granted , hatton looked in control but KT took a 18 month lay off , Kostya is a range fighter yes but allso when close to a opponent likes to unload quick combinations in which to frustrate opponents, many fighters resume is better than KT , its hard to develop a career when carving out 16 fights in a different country and where is this flyod calling out tszyu?, flyod aint left usa to fight anywhere else, Genado Hendraz! doesnt match the work rate as KT or the power, and when were talking bout 1 trick ponys you sure mentioned half of them there, Joe calzaghe (quick flurrys), Roy jones (flash) Chad dawson aint special (personally would of chosen hopkins over his name)
Every fighter thats struggled or upset is bc they took someone for granted except if your name is floyd jr. People still bring up Castillo like Castillo actually won or something and convienely leaves out that Floyd torn muscle from his shoulder since the 3rd round.
I am a huge fan of Bhop but he will not beat Chad in this part of his career. If anyone is one trick pony is Kostya. Beside taking good shots and giving his right hand. Medicore thumping but slow jab, that sums him up.
The judah-tszyu fight was too short to draw any conclusions from either way towards a tszyu-mayweather fight. Likely it is either Mayweather UD or Tszyu by KO. Kostya usually does very well with guys that will box with him but also Mayweather is a step above most others in that department. Im not sure who would win Id have to look over some of each before I decided.
Yeah, because of all of those crisp clean combos when Floyd is against the rope, philly shelling it. :roll:
hello to all, just joined no better way to start, Im a proud brit but never had one ounce of confidence Ricky Hatton would beat Floyd so a prime time Kostya would fare the same. KT was and will be remembered as a good fighter not great, records speak for themselves my friends.
He did call KT out after the Zab fight. Remember that PBF and Zab are friends. He was still at 130 though and this could of been a fight PBF could have lost if he had move right on up to fight him back then. Alot of posters are not giving KT much respect, but he was one of the best 140 pounders ever. I have to disagree with Hatton beating a prime KT. PBF is just a special fighter like how RJ and SweetPea were.
It still amazes me that people still hype Tszyu so much. Anyhoo, Mayweather by stoppage. He'll beat Zoo in every aspect. Floyd is bigger, at least as strong, faster, better footwork, better defense, superior accuracy and more weapons. I don't see how Zoo can win against Mayweather.
i know you are a KT LOVER and he is great and can do no wrong, but the guy is one of the biggest jokes by being inactive and fighting absolutely no one. ok, 2 superfights i can think of in his against Judah and hatton. so hes 1 and 1 in big fights... he wasted all of the 2000's on the following " garbage fights" 2000- ahmed santos (umm who?) 2000- chavez ( pick the bones of whats left) 2001- sharmba mitchell ( theres a tough one) 2001 - Urkal 2001 - Judah (superfight) 2002- ONLY 1 fight vs ben tackie (YAY) 2003- ONLY 1 fight vs james leija (haha) 2004- ONLY 1 fight vs Mitchell (again....hahahahaha) 2005- retirement match vs hatton so in 4 years he sat on his "prime ass" and did nothing except fight garbage fights. if youre gonna sit on your ass that much and only fight 1 time a year...at least fight someone the fans give a **** about. KT is one of the most overrated belt holders ever. :deal
who the hell did kostya tszyu beat at 140 that in your mind makes him one of the greatest 140 pounders ever?? :think:think:think:think:think:think:think:think:think:think:think:think
