etc.

in a nutshell, Mickey Rourke is still making movies for a reason...
don't kid yourself Tszyu is a top 5 junior welter ATG, and IMO one of the best counter punchers ever, it would be a tough fight but i see him tagging Manny with the right all night, and yea Kostya was no spring chicken when he fought Hatton, and gettin his balls bashed didn't help much either
You are pin pointing Roach's bad moments which is not fair and erelevant to the discussion. Those guys that you mentioned are no Manny Pacquiao.

Tyszu never fought someone like Pacquiao, who moves a lot, with blinding speed and undeniable power. Kostya wasn't a flashy quick counterpuncher. Pac would make him quit on his stool faster than Hatton did.
Yeah coz it was the guys with the speed that beat kostya, the southpaws ay? Just check his record and tell me how many southpaws beat him, how many rounds they lasted and were any of them fast offensive fighters. Then come talk to me about this.
agree, and also Dr. Steelhammer, Tszyu would drop Pacquiao faster than Torrecampo and Singsurat did, now i know why Pacquiao didn't want the fight going into the 3rd
