Comments Thread For: Mendoza on Tim Tszyu Fight: Nothing Can Stop Me From Bringing a New Belt Home

[BlackRobb]

Ocampo didn't land a punch on Tszyu and Tszyu outboxed Harrison. If Tszyu's defense is a legitimate concern why has he never even had a close fight, why does he always win easily and rarely get hurt?

You forget that he got dropped by Gauscha. Gauscha is a very fringe contender at 154. I think the Mendoza fight is one of the five best fights of the year. Tszyu better be locked-in.

I think it goes to decision , Mendoza is a good boxer with power.

If it goes to decision Tszyu definitely wins.

I didn't forget, it was a flash knock down. Tszyu got straight back up and dominated him.

Every fighter has flaws and if those flaws are not fixed, they will lose, either sooner or later, which is what happens to almost every fighter. No I don't give Tszyu credit for leaving himself wide open at times and eventually it can cost him against the elite. Stop being a fangirl.

It's funny how no boxer has ever capitalised on Tszyu's supposed flaw. Teddy Atlas had only one criticism of Tszyu and it was that at times he admires his work, in other words he'll look to see what damage he inflicted instead of continuing too attack.

JJ75JJ is showing to be a fangirl. Tsyzu is a solid fighter, but he like a number of fighters has flaws that can be exploited by the elite. His defense as whole is not bad, but he comes straight in squared up at times and against a strong counter-puncher will pay the price. Fangirls want to believe their love interest will be a superstar and remain unbeaten but like most fighters, Tszyu will win some and lose some.

He hasn't lost a fight and his father only lost 2 fights in his whole career (in one of those losses his opponent repeatedly punched below the belt). I think Tim will be fine and as he keeps on winning and winning and winning you'll have to eventually admit his "flaws" aren't flaws or at least that you were being petty.

He did indeed dominate, but getting knocked on your can by a guy who fights once every four years is not a good look. Has Gauacha even fought since that fight?

I thought Hector Lopez was robbed this was when KT was on the rise, Vince Phillips beat the sht out of him and KT wanted nothing to do with him again and he quit on his stool to Hatton, Jessie Leija was touching him up when he got a popped ear drum and had to pull out that would of have been an interesting result had that fight gone the route, KT was an elite fighter but not what the hype made out.

Tim showed a lot of flaws with Gaushi, are they still there we dont know Im guessing they will be and Gaushi is like a 70% Charlo., if that was Charlo in that fight Tim is stopped, has he improved since then in confidence for sure in ability I cant tell as Harrison was on a well-paid holiday about to retire and Ocampo didn't show anything, personally I don't think much of Mendoza Id much rather it was Castano and it's in Aus, things are going to show whether Tim is the real deal within his next 3 fights, got to hand it to his team they have done everything right for him.

Obviously you are new to the sport because every fighter has flaws and almost every fighter on the planet will win some and loose some and you would know that if you didn't fall off the rice truck of boxing.

I'm not sure where you pulled the statistic of Gausha only fighting once every 4 years from but it's inaccurate, he fights on average once a year, he has fought once this year and fights again in 5 days. Who cares if it's a good look or not? For the record Tszyu was as sick as a dog for that fight and tore tendons in both hands in round 2. So he beat the **** out of Gausha while he had the flu and with torn tendons in both hands.
