Tim Tszyu would beat Canelo Alavrez

I agree Tim will eventually be champion at 160 and 168

 

Clenelo be hiding from the soul taker.

 

Right now? Tzyu is still a little rough around the edges I think. Could be wrong, Canelo seems to be going for the power routine which imho is the wrong route for him.

 

Can’t see this happening, I think Canelo would smoke him. I like Timmy, but I think he’s vastly overrated by many in boxing.

 

Size difference would be the key, Tim wouldn't be able to hurt Canelo, 8-10 pounds doesn't seem like a lot but every time someone has gone up recently it hasn't even been competitive.

 

Nah....Canelo is not finished yet. He still has a lot left in his tank.

 

Alot left cherry picking, if he fought the best 5 matchups out there on the bounce, he'd 100% lose 2 or 3.

 

Agreed. I like Tim, but there is nobody on his resume that leads me to believe he's beating Canelo right now.

 

Tszyu is not the style of fighter that would trouble Canelo very much..............even if there was no size difference.

 

Never, some people go on like Tim is some sort of beast

Canelo beats him quite routinely

 

Canelo is so skilled people often overlook it while being so physically rock tough.

Tim is better off finishing off his business with the first being Germil Charlo whenever he's ready for it or not!

 

A Tszyu has never lost to a Mexican. If the Big Doodles won't come out to play at 154 (we know Jermell won't), he moves to 160. Only problem with 160 is that PBC only controls two of the belts. Chairman Bob controls the other two & while I think the Kazakh would accommodate a challenge from Tim, giving a fighter from another promotional group a shot at titles when they don't have to isn't really the Top Rank way. Another advantage of moving to Middleweight is that it brings Canelo into play. A jump from Junior Middle seems a bridge too far. From Middle? Not so much. Timmy's future claim to greatness rests with Charlo, Spence or Crawford @ Junior Middle (Spence being the most likely), the Kazakh @ Middleweight (after knocking over lesser lights to establish himself in the division) & Canelo @ Super Middle.

I, for one, won't be surprised in the least if King Timmy does to Canelo what King Kostya did to JC Superstar. The Tszyu right hand is kryptonite to fabled Mexican chins.

 

Tim Tszyu is becoming overrated

 

Interesting fight.

Tszyu is younger but Canelo is more skillful.

If Tszyu gets caught like he did earlier this year it can potentially be over. But Canelo doesnt hit as hard as he used to at lower weights either.

In time, its possible that Tszyu beats Canelo.
