Well im not sure Mayweather ducked Tszyu but what i am sure of Tszyu was avoided by the big boys and had Mayweather vs Tszyu happened Mayweather would of won UD i know the old saying is that timing beats speed and Tszyu had very good timing but i don't think Mayweather would get caught with anything silly i mean if you look back at his whole career you have to find little clips of Mayweather actually getting hit with a big shot and and only time i can recall Mayweather getting hit with one big shot was with Corley and maybe Judah but thats about it.
Thats tru Ice, but i don't think that Tszyu completely relied on the knockout, he was a fabulously well conditioned fighter who could apply that huge power over 12 rounds whilst employing a boxer/puncher style, he didnt need to KO guys. I remember seeing his amateur fights a long time ago and he had unbelievable speed himself, (the power came later.)

Had they have fought i think it would have been a UD up for grabs as Mayweather has an exemplarary chin. It would have been a superfight with either guy wining being ok by me.
Tszyu only struggled with pressure fighters who didn't allow him to get punching room i would give him a shot vs Mayweather based on his timing and power and being dangerous for the full 12 rounds but i still think Mayweather wins UD.
Absolutley, id say it would have been a fight which would have brought out the best in both.

I'm no expert on that division Gamo so i cant argue with you, but on what i know of both guys id give the edge in power to Mayweather
