    tszyu is one of the best 140lb fighters this planet has ever seen. and actually possibly the best 140lb fighter ever.

      it's between kostya tszyu , julio cesar chavez and aaron pryor.

      which ever order you have the 3......even being 3rd on that list is not bad.

          You think so? He was fighting blown up welterweights at 163. He's fighting at a reasonable pace in terms of quantity, not quality. His recent fights have been straight though, Varela and Walker were good step ups and Manfredo will give him a good test, a real good move at this time.

          no way......
          Yes, Pacquiao is #1 P4P and has proven himself to be the best fighter at 140 pounds so **** all the former flyweight nonsense and Cotto will be the underdog. At 140 Cotto's resume is solid and at 147 most of the top 10 contenders are on it. Cotto's beaten more than 10 former, current, future, titlists and Mosley is a lock for a first ballot Hall of Famer.

          If he beats Pacquiao, he passes Tszyu and is real close to Mayweather. Compare the records for yourself.

            he will have to do more than that to move ahead of mayweather and tszyu.

              Yeah I think so. I mean, he's not moving like De La Hoya fast or anything, but he seems to actually be climbing some sort of ladder and progressing as opposed to just fluffing a record

              like you say, Varela, Walker, Walton and Manfredo are pretty okay fights to be having just one and a half years into your pro career.

                  Really? Shane Mosley is a great win and it's bigger than Tszyu's Chavez win. Kostya dominated more in his runs, but Cotto is fighting and beating the better opposition. Antonio Margarito>Vince Phillips.

                  True, GBP are just learning how to move a prospect from ground zero. Top Rank really knows wtf they are doing when it comes to that.

                      You crak me up Mr. Pink...

                      but the truth is since he has not faced any of them you can't say he is greater...

                      do you think this logic would apply in reverse?

                      Is he equal? Hell yea!
