    Where would Kostya Tszu rank in today's 140 pound division.

    I think he would be number 2 behind Crawford since Crawford is the better and more special fighter.

      Stylistically Kostya has the slick style figured out. there's no way u can be slick and box off the backfoot and win against Tszyu.

      he's too accurate a puncher and too powerful. the only way to beat him is catch him with a hail mary. or mug him when he's out of his prime.

        If Kostya Tszu was in the 140lb division, then Crawford wouldn't be. He'd have gone straight to 147lbs.

          Crawford is very versatile.... He's a better fighter than Mitchell and mentally tougher and more consistent than Judah

          Crawford does more in the ring than those two can fight well more than one way

          I'd favor tszyu because of his power, consistency and timing.

          They'd be the class of the division and would have a trilogy....I can see Crawford beating him as well

            Are you saying Crawford would duck him?

                  Haha. He is? Well, I hadn't noticed. And what makes him the more "special" fighter?

                  I like Crawford but he's got a ways to go to compare with Tszyu.

                    Crawford would *** him up and make him quit again like a lil hoe.
