I'm certain Manny could have beat him but what I'm asking is do you think he could have gone the distance or perhaps even hurt Manny with one of his thudding right hands ? Thoughts...

Tszyu had a granite chin, lots of power, and if there was ever a southpaw-killer, Tszyu was that. Not even speed would beat Tszyu.
To beat Tszyu you can't fight him, you'd have to runaway like Vitali did against Arreola(literally turn around and run away) and just hope to win on potshotting. Pacquiao is a fighter so I think he would have engaged/trade at some point against Tszyu.

maybe a few rounds but he'll eventually time you coming in or backing up.
you need to crowd kostya to beat him.
that's what phillips and hatton did.
kostya needed range to time you and to apply his power.
