    Floyd seemed to think so since he clearly ducked Tszyu.

    Mosely had knocked out more people than Kostya had fights, was bigger and you act like Mosely couldnt hit...

    Kostya would have murked Him and Duckweather knew it thats why he ducked him and went the Gatti route instead. This would be KT-Judah all over again. EZ-Work for KT.

    Would've been a damn good styles match up. Damn good. I'd have loved to see Tszyu-Mayweather to see how Floyd handled someone with the sniping power, timing, and accuracy of Kostya.

    Mayweather would have put a gatti on his ass @ 140.

    Cotto/Hatton/Tsuyu were watching Gatti/Floyd in the venue, night of

    They wanted none of him afterwards.

    I hate revisionist history.

    Floyd was on HBO
    Tszyu was on Showtime.


    Rinse and repeat.

    The power's always there, but after watching what a 37 year old Floyd did to the much faster, much bigger, Canelo, I can't say for certain who would beat Mayeather

    What happens in the ams has no bearing on what happens in the pros. It's a loser argument.

    I clearly remember Mayweather saying that he would like to fight Tszyu and Tszyu saying that he wasn't interested.
