    Mosley by brutal KO,KT was susceptible to right hands and Shane has one of the most powerfull right hands of recent times,this and the huge diference in speed would spell disaster for KT.

    Kostya loses by KO . His left hand punching is weak. He has a great straight right, but that works better against southpaws.

    Kostya Tszyu might have been the better boxer, but Mosley was the better slugger.

    Good match up.

    Mosley by stoppage, whilst behind on the cards.

    Whatever Phillips and Hatton could do, Mosley could adapt his natural style to do as well.

    Ricky took a pretty big beating in order to impose his will, and walked through it, Shane could do that also.

    Tszyu would get his brains bashed in. No one was ****ing with Mosley 140 and below.

    Ricky Hatton and his big imposing of will :lol: If it wasn't for his biased wrestling hometown refs Hatton wouldn't have gotten past Ben Tackie. Hey I'm gonna use your logic now for fun. Tszyu schooled Forrest and Forrest schooled Mosley so Tszyu is going to embarrass Mosley. I'm afraid it doesn't work like that.

    I'm giving the edge to Mosley on this one for a decision or late TKO but if Tszyu boxes and doesn't slug he can pull off a decision.

    Artificially enhanced Mosley is not match for Kostya Tszyu.

    Kostya was a beast , but too one dimensional for Mosely. UD Shane.

    This makes me laugh.... How many Tszyu fights have you seen by chance? I wonder the same for a lot of people in these threads who call him one dimensional or how he has no power in his left... I know I'm a bit biased, but come on people. It would seem some here need to dwelve into his career a bit more...

    :zzz :zzz :zzz

    I wasn't using the ABC thing - all I was saying is that if Hatton could beat Tszyu by brawling and slugging, Mosley could quite easily do it as well, despite being outboxed at times.

    Woulda been a great fight... but I see no way that Tszyu wins. Shane by late TKO.
