Whitaker vs Tszyu @ 140

Whitaker would make Tszyu look silly.

 

whitaker pulls tszyu shorts down and wins a ud

 

Tszyu out boxes Sweet Pea.

No, non-pressure fighter is beating Tszyu.

 

I don't see Tszyu having many advantages here. I don't think he's unpredictable enough to catch Whitaker off-guard, and I don't think he cuts the ring off well enough to shut him down, even if he did he's going to be bamboozled by Whitaker's upper body movement as many were. Pernell would just outjab him off the back foot and be too clever defensively to get caught with anything. If he comes inside into the pocket, I think Tszyu would have a hard time trying to shorten up his punches and I think Whitaker can land and move and reset himself to do the same things again. Whitaker UD, by at least 6 rounds.

 

No contest. Whitakre wouldn't even be touched in what would amount to him as little more than a sparring session.:smoke

 

You mean no pressure fighter is beating Pea?

Dont think Tszyu had enough in his arsenal to outbox Whitaker at 140.

 

I rate Sweet Pea. Easily in my top 10 all time P4P list.

But he ain't beatin' Tsyzu.

 

Pea would certainly outbox KT with ease but people forget what a skilled boxer Tszyu was early in his career. He made Vernon Forrest look like a caveman when they were amatuers.

 

Where do you rank Tsyzu?

Who has Tsyzu beaten even remotely close to Whitaker to make such a statement?

I like Tsyzu but I believe he is somewhat overated as a P4P fighter.

He was a strong fighter at 140 pounds, but suspect defense and little in the way of mobility.

I dont see how he could ever deal with the movement of Whitaker??

 

Sweet Pea's insistent jab and awesome movement keep Tszyu from getting set and throwing that monsterous right hand.

as Pea starts to mix in shots from his extensive arsenal, he bombards Tszyu with body shots wearing him down, showing he can mix it up in close.

Tszyu of course will land with shots; he was not a particularly limited fighter, and capabale of boxing himself, but I see no way Tszyu can get anything going against Sweet Pea.

Pea will get to Tszyu eventually, and beat him into submission, stopping him in around ten rounds I reckon. He's a better offensiive fighter than Phillips and Hatton combined IMO, and can put a beating on Tszyu on Kosta's best day.

 

Ive heard this but never seen the actual fight. Vernon would have been very difficult to outbox as a pro so it would be nice to see what he brought to the table in that fight.

We didnt see too much outboxing from Tszyu as a pro. More flat footed cut off the ring overpowering type stuff.

 

If Chavez could have limited success with Sweet Pea movement Tszyu can too.

Tszyu's defence was world class, not on the level of Whitaker, but his timing and judgement of distance balances that out.

Extreme strength and explosiveness could trouble Tszyu (you had to hope he was having an off day break him down), aside from that I see Tszyu as being invincible in the ring, particularly against southpaws.
