    pac still jumps in to throw flurries and he still overcommits when he throws a big shot, one tszyu right hand changes the entire fight.

Of course with Tszyu he could continue to win because he had power, timing, and was still good, but inactivity kills. Plus, he always did well when he was the underdog...more focused I would say.

      By the time Hatton got to him, Tszyu was close to 36 years old and had only fought 9 rounds in 3 years and had to fight early in the morning. At his Grandpa age, that isn't good. And then you had the younger fighter (Hatton) wrestling the inactive fighter to death.
      I agree. Hatton was using some questionable tactics that the ref was letting slide. I still believe if he (Tszyu) would have fought Hatton in Las Vegas it would have been a much different story. Possible Kostya win by KO.

                  if pacquiao tried to trade he would get knocked out. if he stayed smart and stayed on the outside he could score a late KO or get knocked out himself.

                  they are close to each other in ability IMO

                      This is a real 50/50 fight.

                      Tszyu was very strong physically at 140 and he had power in both hands, however Tszyu was also not very difficult to hit and he lacked the speed of Pacquiao hand and foot, having said that he was very adept at fighting left handers from what ive seen, so......

                      To close to call, either Pac's in and out foot and hand speed is too much for Tszyu or Pac gets KTFO.
