I thought I heard all these people questioning KT chin when we had the Tszyu-Mayorga topic, and Chico is #for# one of the hardest punchers in boxing, and with his height he could probally carry his punch to 140, and maybe even have more power since he was having a hard time making weightComment

This fight SHOULD NOT HAPPEN, it'd be a total mismatch. Corrales would not be able to use his height effectively for 12 rounds to keep Tszyu from showering him with huge inside punches. Chico would need to stay out of arm's reach of Tszyu for the majority of the fight. It has been said that Chico has serious mental lapses during his fights, he'd forget what he was supposed to do and start slugging with KT, then get caught with terrible punches and probably be forced to lean back. Mainly the reason for this would be the weight difference. Tszyu weighs in at 140, On fight night his weight jumps up to north of 154. Corrales would find himself fighting a junior middleweight who is a big puncher. i don't want to see Corrales get KTFO'd... This fight if it has to happen would be better for Chico at 147, then he could be around 150+ on fight night, but i still think Chico will be forced to lean back
As Fat Joe and half asian_sensation says : " Even Roy Jones was forced to lean back "Comment

Maybe, but how would he react if KT connects on a booming right cross?? just imagine the fight with floyd, and KT is a legit 140lbs power hitterOriginally posted by DLTand Chico is #for# one of the hardest punchers in boxing, and with his height he could probally carry his punch to 140, and maybe even have more power since he was having a hard time making weight

exactlyOriginally posted by miron_langMaybe, but how would he react if KT connects on a booming right cross?? just imagine the fight with floyd, and KT is a legit 140lbs power hitter
he was cleary outgunned by mayweather
i serioulsy doubt floyd hits harder and as often as tszyu
floyd likes to throw in a hard ass shot for every 15-20 normal shots
tszyu on the other hand brings hard short shots and nothin but them
corrales is goin in ovr his head in this one
if anyone is gonna beat him
its gonna be someone above the 140ld division
all the 140 guys have a great chance but i just dont see them beaten tszyuComment
