Look how beautiful his boxing skills are vs Vernon Forrest in the finals for the World Amateur Championships.
Tszyu was a more skilled, harder hitting, more elusive version of Juan Manuel Marquez, who had better legs and headmovement.Last edited by !! Shawn; 09-21-2015, 03:16 AM.

Tszyu, Casamayor, Lara, etc...
Closest he ever came was Cotto probably. But he waited, him out of his prime to when he was sluggish, and ringworn.
revisionist history. when did floyd duck kostya again? By the time floyd got to 140 kostya was a part time fighter coming back from injuries and on his way to retirement. When kostya KOed judah, floyd was still at 130. floyd would wipe the floor with kostya.
And lara, this is recent enough that everyone knows the obvious, there was never any demand for that fight. Floyd fought the winner of canelo-lara. lara had his chance and came up short.

TBE schooled Marquez and any salty clown that brings up weight is butthurt.
MARQUEZ IS ALREADY ON THE RECORD SAYING THAT TBE WOULD DESTROY HIM AT ANY WEIGHT AND AT ANY TIME IN HIS CAREER
Marquez is the 2nd greatest technical boxer of his generation. TBE being the obvious #1.
FOH with that garbage.

If there is no demand for it, how did he land the canelo fight, which anyone objective thinks he won.
And whats your excuse for Casamayor?
Also Floyd expressed his difficulty making 130, and openly contemplated skipping 135 and going straight to 140 in 2001. SO there is realistically a 3 year window where Floyd could have made that fight happen, but he didn't.Last edited by !! Shawn; 09-21-2015, 03:45 AM.
