kostya tszyu vs recent top 140s

[A-Wolf]

i think tszyu would beat matthysse at least, might ko cotto too, bradley is very winnable

Agreed. Tszyu takes these three.

[MRBOOMER]

Shouldn't the list be with today's fighters?

Khan
Garcia
Alexander
Bradley
Maidana
Matysee or however it's spelled
Holt?
Even the magic man is more recent there
Marquez
Peterson

That would be better most of the guys on that list would spark him de la Hoya was to big
Shane to big to strong to fast
Idk honestly about PAC he only fought there once.
I forgot who else was there.

I think he beats Cotto and Bradley. He is in an even fight with Matthysse. I give prime Oscar, Floyd, Shane, and Manny all an edge to beat him.

Beats all IMO & probably stops them too except Matthysse & Marquez with Bradley being a toss up.

The only person in that list that you could expect to beat tszyu is Mayweather. The rest could get beat by tszyu. You can tell who knows something about past fighters in this thread and who hasn't got a fcuking clue.

Do people realise that tszyu was easily a top 10 all time light welterweight?

Some of the responses here are embarrassing.

exactly. Actually Tszyu is a top 3 light Welterweight on most lists.

exactly. bunch of ******s posting here who dont know anything about boxing history. Lucas Matthysse beats an over the hill Judah (and gets robbed) and an over the hill-moving up the weight class Humberto Soto, and now suddenly Matthysse beats one of the most skillful fighters I ever saw in my life (Kostya Tszyu that is) ???
Tszyu had one of the highest ring IQs I ever saw and sick power. I wouldnt be surprised that on his best night Tszyu beats Pacquiao and Mayweather at 140, and I would favor Tszyu over De la Hoya and Cotto.

tszyu did very well against boxers and speedsters. as manny steward pointed out before the hatton fight, tszyu struggles aginst pressure fights that smother him. against boxers, tszyu had great timing and could land big shots with his straight punches, under rated hand speed and great timing.

mosley - tsyzu by UD
de la hoya - toss up
mayweather - toss up
cotto - tszyu in a war, maybe a late KO
pacquiao - tszyu close decision
bradley - tszyu UD maybe KO
matthysse - tszyu UD

[razor.thin]

tszyu vs mosley+ cotto would have been great fights, de la hoya too maybe

I bet he does but some would make a decent fight of it.
