(prime) Tszyu v Pac @ 140lbs

Kostya had a tendency to knock out fast southpaws, anyone notice that? .[/quote]

Yeh that's what I was thinking, and Tszyu was no slouch at 140lbs, arguably even a kingpin at that weight at some stage. Hence my wondering of how Pac would go against him.

[rjj tszyu]

I really don't know on this one, I'd like to say Tszyu, but I don't know!

The obvious answer is Pac after his recent victories, but Kostya would have a punchers chance. If KT could use his timing to catch Pac early he could get on top but the longer the fight went without that happening the more it'd go in Manny's favour.

Man, that would fight would be explosive. This is a knockout for sure. I would lean towards Pac but you can't let Tszyu hit you square because anyone of those overhand rights could put a 154 pounder out. So I would bet on Pac but I wouldn't be surprised if Tszyu took him out.

Well...at this point...does it really matter what kind of hypothetical fight we put Pac in...some people on this board probably think he could beat Roy Jones or maybe even Mike Tyson. Anyways, back to the original topic. This would have been a great fight. Tszyu did great against boxers...not as good against pressure fighters. That being said...Tszyu, in my humble opinion, is as good as any 140 pounder to ever fight. He had fantastic skills, incredible timing, and of course...KO power. Pac for all of his improvements...still gets hit a ton. That, and the fact that Tszyu was great against lefties...i would have Kotsya as the favorite. One of my personal dream match ups would have been Tszyu vs. Mayweather.

I don't think it would be a walkover for Manny in anyway because Tszyu was first class hit hard and was tough but even though Kostya did do well against fast southpaws he also was not the quickest fighter out there, I think the speed would be too much for Kostya as it seems to be with most of Pacquiao's recent opponents.

You never know though because Kostya had the ability to end things with one punch and Manny would be no exception to the rule
