when i saw harris standing next to tsyzu after the mitchell zu fight.....i didnt even realize harris was taht tall....ive only seen him fight hurtado........what you guys think are his chances of beating zu

Harris has a punchers chance against Tszyu, thats it.

Tszyu > Everyone at 140

Actually Harris is not that much taller that Tszyu. IT was just a camera angle. Elveil is right. The only chance Harris got is punchers. That or if Kostya gets old overnight.

I dont think Tszyu's the type of fighter to get old overnight, IMO he's getting better with age and we wont see him slow for at least a couple of years. Its possible he was stronger against Mitchell than he's ever been, i could feel them power shots myself!! :eek:

I agree with Jose, i'd favour him against anyone at light welter!! I'd even favour him against any lightweight or welterweight.

He'd beat Harris.

No way I'm favouring him with any welterweights though.

Who could beat him at welter?

I think Tszyu would beat Harris...most likely by late stoppage or decision. Harris fights well from distance and has good handspeed. It would definitely be a nice fight while it lasted. Harris would have to catch Tszyu with something nasty to stand a chance however.

As far as picking people over Tszyu at 140 I'd pick Cotto and Mayweather. Cotto gets another good fight under his belt and I think he's ready. Mayweather is probably ready now. He gets hit more now but I think he could still eek out a decision. I don't think he could stop KT however...only if Tszyu's corner got involved or something. I believe Cotto would stop Tszyu inside of 10. Just my opinion.

Who could beat him at welter?

Well if DLH is moving back there, his name springs to mind.

I like Vernon Forrest's chances but he'd smash Judah again and probably Spinks too.

cotto style(and reach) will get him KTFO...mayweather i think would get caught eventually and put out

I'm glad you didnt say Spinx or Judah, nothing against them but i think Tszyu who beat them, and who knows he could make Judah do a silly chicken dance again!! :D

DLH has a chance, he's got ability but i'd still favout Tsyzu over him. I think DLH would take a warm up before Tszyu so i'd decide on that fight after i see him back at the welter.

Forrest would be a good match, i think Forrest is a very talented fighter!! i was one of the only people who picked him to beat Mosley in their 1st fight, although i think he lost the second Mosley fight i was still shocked that Mayorga beat him!!

Have you seen the Tszyu vs Forrest amateur clip? Their styles gel well, if you havent seen it you can download it from this link http://www.geocities.com/michael_selway/

:cool:

Harris is an under estimated force the in division, but he can't beat Kostya Tszyu.

Tszyu. UD.

Harris wont get near him though. Tszyu's looking for nothing but paydays by his own admission.

Tszyu/Forrest would be an interesting fight. Their amateur bout was pretty lively, who knows how a 12 rounder might play out. Again though, Forrest probably isn't on his radar, or anyone's for that matter, what's happened to him? when's he scheduled to fight next?

I'd like to see whether Oscar's drop in weight affects him before considering his prospects with Tszyu.

I dont think that many people under estimate him, i just dont think anyone cares how good he is. He's a very good fighter with a very bad attitude.

Boxrec have forrests career as inactive!! :(

I read a forrest interview a couple of months ago and he was talking about retiring but change his mind because a lot of fans wanted him back.

I dont know why he'd want to retire anyway, he's only been beaten by one man in his whole career, its not exactly a disaster!!
