    I can tell you right off the bat this poll will go amazingly in KT's favour. though Forrest was a top fighter, Tszyu was simply a level above Forrest and would've timed him all night long.

    Zoo was an amazing fighter in his prime. I'd pick him over Mayweather, actually. He just had such an executioner style...he's pretty much the definition of "timing" an opponent...an unbelievably good fighter in his prime.

    I consider Zoo the greatest 140 pounder to ever live, beating Pryor. And people also forget that his fight with Hatton, at the twilight of his career, was VERY close before he quit in the 12th. At times he was tagging Hatton well, but Hatton never let him get full power on his shots by smothering him.
