Tszyu - Mayweather

Yes he wouloutbo Mayweather. If you were a student of the sport you would realize that timing > speed in many instances. Tszyu was awesome against fighters who took backsteps because of the way he through his right hand. He was so talented he was able to turn his left hook partway into an uppercut. You dont believe me, go watch some of his fights.
Floyd is good at neutralizing your strengths. True. But would it be enough when you are constantly on the defensive?? Against Tszyu that is suicide.Comment

KT fought no elite in prime fighters and had no superfights ,,, biggest win a really early career Judah and a washed up Chavez , there were reasons why he never fought ODH Mosley etc and it had nothing to do with those guys ducking him that was all bull**** , I was there when he fought Leija and Jessie more than held his own and at times showed KT some boxing lessons , Leija lost because he was way too small , Hector Lopez showed why Phillips won and Phillips is no brawler he is a straight up boxer , he won because he was a welter and to big for KT ,,, Floyd is bigger than KT and would win easy as KT is very flat footed and moves in straight lines thats why Ricky won , because KT is always in front , he was a puncher that would not get on Mayweather ,,,, besides look at KTs resume , he never fought anybody for the reputation he has , good fighter but over rated as far as the ODH and Mosleys go , KT needed a superfight for his legacy and never had one .
He stayed at 140 and unified the belts. Mosley and DLH were at 147 when e was ruling the division. Which is what Hopkins did at 160. Hopkins is only getting his praise now because of the way he has beat Tarver and Winky at light heavy. But remember alot of fans were calling Hopkins overated long before even Taylor beat him twice. Your point is good...but it doesn't really prove anything. As it obviously didn't when people were critisizing Hopkins.Comment

No hate here. Tszyu is an all time great. All time great knockout power. Great timing. Great boxing skills. Great at cutting off the ring. I can go on and on. He ate slicksters and southpaws' for lunch.Comment

This post is complete ****.
1. Kostya Tszyu's record is now 31-2 with 25 KOs; and fought elite fighters his whole career, including Vernon Forrest in the 91 amatuer world championships. He whipped Vernon's ass and won that fight, by the way.
2. Leija did not lose to Kostya because he was too small...it was a 6th round TKO because Tszyu broke his ear drum.
2. Hector Lopez got his ass whipped for 12 rounds and lost that fight.
3. Judah was 27-0 when Kostya knocked his ass out in the 12th.
4. Urkal was 28-0 when Kostya whipped his ass for 12 rounds and won that fight.
5. Tszyu finished Julio Ceasar Chavez in the 6th by TKO. This was in 2000 and Chavez was 103-4-2 at the time.
6. Tszyu whipped Livingstone Brample's ass for 12 rounds and won that fight.
7. Tszyu TKOd Sharmba Mitchell twice, the last fight Mitchell went down 4 times.
8. Tszyu TKOd Angel Hernandez in the 7th.
9. Tszyu knocked out Corey Johnson in the 4th.
10. Tszyu beat Rafeal Ruelas, who was 52-3, by TKO in the 9th.
11. Tszyu knocked out Jan Bergman in the 6th round. Bergman was 32-0 at the time.
12. Tszyu beat Hugo Pineda by TKO in the 11th round. Pineda was 27-0 at the time.
Tszyu's only loss before Hatton was in 1997. Vince Phillips performed wonders that night and the fight was Ring Magazine's "Upset of the Year".
You want to know why Mosley, Oscar, and Floyd didn't fight Tszyu? Just review the list above for the answer.
From here on out, your opinion means nothing. You are clearly wrong and you need to rewatch the fight.

Damn right Tszyu was an all time great. He's HOF. And, he specialized in beating undefeated overrated overprotected loud mouths. He specialized in it. This is why Floyd, ODH, and Mosely never wanted any piece of Kostya Tszyu.Comment
