    Same applies to Manny.

    Floyd on the other hand counters Tszyu's greatest weapon, his ability to cut off the ring and land hard accurate accumulating punches.

    Tszyu would lose a decision to Floyd at his peak.

    I think we only saw glimpses of the best of Kostya Tszyu, we saw that from 1999-2001.
    The Judah fight was telling in that Judah did all he could in the first round, he landed some good shots, but Tszyu was still there, he then went all cautious in the 2nd knowing he had already shown his cards and he didn't have a winning hand.

    Tszyu was a stalker in the ring, brilliant at cutting off the ring and didn't waste punches, when he landed it had a debilitating effect... with fighters at times just trying to get to the end of the fight intact. More often than not they didn't, Marquez would not have made it to the end.

    The near 2 year lay off affected him greatly and he was nullified by the younger Hatton, but those who under estimate Tszyu's abilities are making a mistake. I don't think Mosley or DLH underestimated him at all and both took a different path.
    I think Tszyu could time a right hand on Floyd’s chin and rock him enough for him to fight scared ensuring Kostya wins a decision.
    This has been the problem with every fighter that has ever fought Floyd...landing one! I like Kostya and he is greatly under estimated on here, but i don't see him landing a big enough shot on Floyd who is the best defensive fighter i have ever seen. Marquez is made for KT, IMO it's a similar win to that of Gonzalez but Floyd has the ring savvy to avoid all of Kostya's big shots. The Tszyu from 1999-2001 was formidable, i just don't see him winning a decision against Floyd.

    As a Russain, my heart is with Kostya. I believe he had the talent to stand out comparably to Floyd or Manny. But, lets be fair, Kostya even at best conditions had little chances against Floyd, Floyd is in a different league

    I believe that Hatton at 140lb, in Manchester with Paris as ref would have a very good chance of beating Floyd at 140lb.

    The @THE THIRD MAN has made a compelling case. More then that he has made me think back and realize the truth of what he says. Went back and revisited fights. The only thing I would take issue with is the seemingly eternal unjustifiable critique in general of the Hatton fight. His opinion carries a lot of weight with me because he's always been honest and realistic about his countrymen. Zu had cock stiff power. Had he dropped Marquez like Manny did I'm not sure Juan gets up. Zu was a great counter puncher which he is rarely given credit for. The difficulty here is that both fighters peaked at different weights. I dont think the 140 and above version of Marquez beats Zu. I dont think the prime Zu beats the prime 126/130 Marquez either. 135 both in there prime(if that could be arranged) is a coin toss.

    Both first ballet Hofers.

    This.

    At their best weights I see Tszyu taking the first 3 rounds with sharp right hands, before Marquez starts making him miss in rounds 4-6, then making him miss and countering hard in 7, 8 and 9, and then overwhelming him when he puts him on the back foot in 10, 11 and 12.
    UD Marquez. At their best weights.

    If this fight was at 140 then that is Kostya best weight, it was never JMM.

    Yeah I know. I'm saying that at 140lb Kostya has a chance, but that I see it going as I said above if it was a p4p deal.

    Maybe p4p but JMM is no great welterweight or lightwelter.
