My problem with Tsypko is that he doesn't seem to understand when to step on the gas. And given that Andrade's aggression is likely to please the judges, I just don't see him winning seven rounds. I'm looking forward to this fight, though.
Tsypko could win a UD, he'll probably win the early rounds and fade as the fight goes on, but he'll still have enough to win a UD.
My gut feeling tells me that Tsypko has the right style to beat Andrade,brickhaus! I may be wrong of course! Stieglitz had been decked several times in other fights before he shared the ring with Andrade.Mack lost to Berrio who lost to aforementioned Stieglitz. I for one think that Tsypko would beat Mack,Stieglitz,and Berrio. He doesnt have Kessler's jab or Bute's lateral movements?? You are right ,brickhaus! However,he has a better chin that Bute and his punches are more precise than Kessler's one. Bute is a good fighter,but I dont think that he plays in a different league. As for Kessler he had to go the distance with Mxoli,Tsypko totally destroyed him.Dont get me wrong! Tsypko would be the huge underdog against the Dane! Didnt Andrade have to go the full distance of 12 rounds against both Tito Mendoza and Willi Stewart?? Tsypko has a good chin,and the Mexican's style is tailor made for the Ukranian. Andrade has a puncher's chance.Thats for sure! But I for one think that Tsypko will be able to win most of the rounds collecting enough points to win by way of point decision.
If Tsypko can block Andrade, then he will be able to save energy througout the fight. Instead of clinching or moving all the time, blocking can be very efficient. It's not Bute's style, that's why Anrade was a problem for him.
Kessler was 21 years fighting as a light middleweight against a 31 year old, and Mxoli was actually out on his legs in the sixth round. Tsypko fought as a 26 year old and as a supermiddleweight against him when he was 34 year old. I don't think you can compare the two wins like that. Andrade should win this one.
I very much hope that you are wrong and that Tyspko will prove you wrong. Admittingly,you made some very good points,but I still think that Andrade is tailor made for Tsypko.
sorry mate were not in germany. tspyko wont get a gift decision like he did against agaist brian magee. so he has no chance
VT might have a good start to the fight but Andrade will eventually grind him down. I see this fight being similar to todays Estrada-Povetkin fight w/ Andrade in the Povetkin role.
He already learned that lesson with the Lacy-rematch... ...if Tsypko can get off to a fast start and finds his rhythm, I see him being very competative over the whole fight...might be a very close fight with Andrade's good conditioning playing the deciding factor...
This is a great fight!!! Librado is a bad mother****er. Not a great technician but as tough as they come. Look at his bone frame and big head!!!! That MOFO was built strong. But the russian deserve some props too. He is not there to survive. He is fighting and he is trying. What a big heart he has. I am loving it!!!!
