    I would exactly say he wouldn't be nothing at the very least Tszyu would be the second best at 140. I wouldn't be so quick to say Mosley would kill Tszyu either. I think this fight would be competitive but I would give Mosley the edge. Then again Mosley doesn't like to be jabbed and Tszyu uses a great jab. Forrest beat Mosley with the jab, Wright beat Mosley with the jab and I believe that Delahoya beat Mosley with the jab in the rematch. If Tszyu can get that jab pumping he could beat Mosley in a close decision may even put him down once or twice.

      Yeah but Tsyzu hasn`t got the reach of the guys you mentioned and he`s not as fast as them. i think Tsyzu could fall apart any minute. Despite his victory over Mitchell. He is getting old and long peroids of inactivity don`t help. i think Mosley is too fast for him!

        I would say Mosley by decision, because of his counterpuching ability, and the fact that Zoo doesn't have a height advantage on him. Mosley's chin would most certainly be checked though, and it wouldn't surprise me if he was knocked down or out.

          How many fast fighters has Tszyu not figured out? Tszyu will find a flaw in Mosley's plan and use it to his advantage. I would give Mosley the edge but it wouldn't be a blowout or one-sided. Tszyu would definitely get respect from Mosley. Until Tszyu shows any major signs of slowing down then I would say he is getting too old. Remember also that Mosley isn't exactly young himself and moving back down to 147 doesn't mean he will dominate.

            Good match. Both are veterans. Mosely has problems with fighters with long reach advantage and a good straight jab and Zoo ain't that tall. But....

            Zoo has one of the best and sneakiest jabs today. And his right cross is lightning quick like Hopkin's.

            Anything goes. But I'd lean towards Mosely.

                Guess I'll be the only one that goes with Tszyu in this matchup. As much as I like Mosley, I think KT's power would make all the difference. Shane would be there to be hit, and that chin would take some serious shots.

                  That doesn't mean that he still couldn't bother Mosley with a jab. He doesn't have the reach advantage but I think his jab would still trouble Mosley. Mosley likes to jumps in and throw wide punches and a jab could prevent alot of that. Couple that with a hard straight righthand and Mosley will be in for a hell of a fight.

                    Tszyu got some serious punching power, but i dunno if he can beat Mosley. This would be a competitive fight, but I'll say Mosley by UD.
