    Beating Judah doesn't say a whole lot anymore eh?

    So what does taking 12 rounds to beat him NOW instead of KOing him in 2 back when he was undefeated say?

    Not to mention the whole host of other world champs that Kostya beat. It wasn't just who he beat either, it was how he beat them. The way he dominated Gonzalez for instance was just sickening.

    Just because Tszyu beat Judah in 2 rounds and Mayweather took 12 to beat him doesn't make Tszyu better ya' know.. Different styles, Tszyu was looking for the KO all night and Mayweather's more of a counter puncher.
    Tszyu doesn't move his head enough and PBF would get him with a counter left hook and the straight right all night long...
    Mayweather by UD 8-4

    No **** sherlock...conversely, stating that beating Judah doesn't look all that great NOW means sweet **** all but the guy I responded to felt it was worth bringing up :hey

    And Tszyu was looking for the KO "all night"?!?!

    2 rds - all night? :patsch

    ****s sakes, has ESB had sudden influx of high school dropouts?

    Balls! Watch KT vs Vernon Forrest (its on youtube,cant be arsed to post it) then if you still think KT is a one dimensional fighter then there's obviously no hope for you.
    BTW I would pick Floyd in a close, tentative UD due to his (even) greater skills and KTs sometimes questionable defense.

    Wow, you guys are desperate to dream up someone that'll beat PBF.

    Zoo has nothing that PBF hasn't seen and dealt with already. There isn't any reason for PBF to "run" from Zoo because Zoo is a smaller fighter. The only fighters that have given PBF trouble with their straights are lefties... which Zoo is NOT.

    Sorry PBF haters, Zoo is not the fighter to beat PBF.

    Floyd would make Zoo look slow and old, all the while making the crowd wish Zoo'd just quit on his stool.

    PBF clear UD.

    Exactly. It cracks me up to see how many people want him to lose.

    Not dreaming up ... I think it would have been an excellent match up .. the fight of the decade if not more.. Australia vs USA , best of the best fighting each other, the reason I give KT a good chance is because of his accuracy and timing, thats something needed against some1 as slick and elusive as PBF.

    that Tszyu that fought Gonzalez that night would beat PBF. i dont care what anyone try;s to tell me.

    he was quick with his punch's alot quicker tham people think and his combinations landed all night.
    and the PBF fans are trying to tell us that Tszyu wouldnt land anything on PBF. yeah and pigs fly.

    PBF beats Zoo period. People keep forgetting that PBF at 140 is on a whole different level than the one at 147 or 154, he's faster has more pop and is bigger and stronger than most at 140. People also saying that Zoo would KO PBF are dreaming how many times has PBF been KOed knocked down or really hurt in a fight? If Oscar couldn't KO PBF at 154 and he hits harder than Zoo at 140 then Zoo wouldn't do it at 140:deal

    Very close fight. I'd pulling with all my weight for Kostya but I suspect Mayweather would pull out a narrow decision. Zab Judah, before he took a liking to the macarena in the 2nd, posed some problems for Tszu, who had a habit of placing his left way out there. Floyd's right straight could be disaster.

    I know one thing. Tszu would cause Mayweather a lot of pain.

    Zab is a strong starter but cannot finish? It was the second round. KT had begun to time Zab and get his range in before the end of the first and was in control by the second. As for imagining what Floyd would do, are you insane? Floyd has nothing resembling Zab's power, nor is he as fast as Zab as evidenced by the first four rounds of their fight.

    Kostya would have more trouble with Floyd because he is a better boxer than Zab, that said Floyd is a little slower than Judah and lacks his punch. That coupled with Kostya's ability to time punches and underrated hand speed leads me to believe that KT would win via stoppage around round 8.

    Damn Tszyu was an animal, and a lot faster then most people give him credit for.
