    I don't think Tsyzu would make his right hand a factor. I think he would play it a lot like the Ben Tackie fight. Lots of pitter pat right hands then huge left hands out of nowhere with the occasional right hand mixed in.

      It's possible and if Tszyu was so smart, he wouldn't have slacked off in training and then lost to Phillips, a very smart technician, yes but I don't find him to be that smart.

      As Roach said, the punch that can hit Pacquiao with regularity is the right hand, if a knockout comes from Tszyu, it'll be from a right hand IMO and that's his best punch.

        Everyone can become over confident. That is not a lack of intelligence. Tsyzu simple became over confident and relied too much on his punching power. The post phillips Tsyzu was a much better fighter than the pre phillips Tszyu.

          Becoming over confident and underestimating your opponent is just a ****** and silly thing to do, anyways I agree that he became a better fighter after the Phillips loss but I still don't view him as being that smart a fighter, not saying he wasn't a smart fighter because he was, just not that smart.

            He didnt look chinny against Cotto or Mayweather, and he took a lot of punishment in those fights.
            Thats my point he was green and got more seasoned as he got older , by your own logic did Hatton look chinney with KT he wore his best shots so what does that make Floyd , KT did not want a rematch with Judah you ever wonder why .

                Tszyu was ducking Judah after this. That's a good one.:wank:
