    Kosta Tszyu vs. Ricardo Mayorga

    What would happen if these two met at 140 or 147? Would Tszyu be able to hit hard enough to keep Mayorga off. Tszyu hits hard but Mayorga did take Titos best and kept on comin, and would Tszyu be able to handle Mayorgas power. Probably never see it but I would like to see this fight more than any other.

      Mayorga would walk through Tszyu.

      No question that Kostya is the better fighter, but you're talking about him facing a far bigger, stronger fighter.

            I think it would have to be at 147 because I don't think Mayorga could make 140 - potentially good fight. A small point Mayorga clearly did not take all Tito's best shots and keep on coming as he got stopped. Mayorga is a really frustrating guy, I feel that if somebody had got hold of him 2 years ago and been able to disipline him he could have been a great.

              All you guys know is power. You probally seen me on these forums picking Floyd over Zoo so this is going to suprise you. No way Mayorga beats Zoo at 147 because plain and simple Zoo is the better fighter. I dont think you guys are doing enough thinking when it comes to this fight. It just seems like he's much bigger because he faught Tito at 160 but his natural weight is 147, and Zoo was a big 140. You guys must be forgetting the Spinks fight and he didnt look good in the Eric Mitchell fight before Tito on the Don King ppv. He argubaly didnt beat Forest the second time. At 147 his power wouldnt be that much greater than Zoo's if it is at all and after that he has no other advantage. P.S. Most of you would pick Zoo to beat Spinks and Zoo beat Forrest in the amatures. Doesnt mean nothing now but I still give him a good chance. So dont get caught up in this Mayorga is toobig and too strong crap because its false. He only had one fight at 160 and anyone who saw that fight could tell that the weight was too much for him. He was in good shape and still couldnt even breathe because of all the weight

                I think Tszyu could handle 147 easy and still be strong and powerful. Mayorga has a great chin and power but that's about it. Tszyu has everything good chin, pretty good defense, much better skills and can hit just as hard as Mayorga in my opinion. I think once again Mayorga shows a great chin in a losing effort. Tszyu by decision and it wouldn't surprise me if it was a late stoppage.

                  DLT....

                  You're insulting people who think Mayorga would be too big & strong for Mayorga....while NEVER having seen Kstya Tszyu fight at 140.
                  That's pretty asinine.

                    What are you talking about insulting people idiot? It's just my opinon. Clown, the point is I've seen Mayorga fight at 147 and I dont even think he would be that much stronger than Zoo if KT faught him weighing 140, so I definitly dont think he would be way stronger than Zoo at 147 e****ally since KT been at 140 his whole carrer. He's not new to the weight and trying to move up again like Floyd.
