Could Floyd have beaten a prime Kostya Tszyu at 140lbs?

[abadger]

i disagree.

i think shane would have beat him.

i think oscar would have beat him.

i think kostya would have beat him.

How would you see them beating him?

[Sweet Pea 50]

I think Mayweather gets Kostya.
But prime Zoo's right hand was like Voltrons blazing sword. If he hit you with it, game over.......

prime tszyu wasn animal a boxer with incredible stength, stamina and some very good skills. imo if mayweather and tszyu were to fight i can see kostya tagging mayweather at least a few times with his right hand it might not be clean or flush but i can see him connecting. yes mayweather is extremely elusive and quick but jostya is no slouch either and his punches ae also very accurate.

ifa peak of his powers mayweather had trouble for a couple of rounds with ricky and oscar imo kostya would have beaten him.

hopefully badly.

[boxasmash]

tzyu would beat mayweather

more power by far, same accuracy just less speed.

speed vs power? id give it to tszyu

How would you see them beating him?

shane and oscar has very fast hands.

both were also very awesome at the lower weight classes , i still can't believe oscar was 130 once.

both also have good chins and doubtful that floyd could take them out.

shane has good foot and hand speed that can match floyd.

oscar has the obvious height and reach advantages.

kostya on the other hand has his great power and great timing. kostya has problems with guys who crowd him. floyd speed might be an issue but kostya knows how to time slick , fast fighters.

[The Gully Gad]

I'd say floyd if i was pushed but the rest Kostya crushes..

Once he tagged you that was it you stayed hurt

[Live Dog]

Floyd > Mosley > Oscar > Tszyu

[Left Hook Tua]

Floyd > Mosley > Oscar > Tszyu

live dog > blondie > longcount > tuco

Course Mayweather could beat him. I would favour Tszyu though.

Kostya's Kryptonite was pressure. Head on the chest, mauling and smothering ala Hatton/Vince Phillips.

Floyd wasnt known to pressure anyone and would sit on the outside giving Kostya time to think about the placement of his punches......which is where he's most dangerous and deadly accurate.
