I'm not sure why I'm bothering with a halfwit sharmook like yourself, but anyway... destroying an undefeated Judah is pretty impressive, he gave Urtkal his first defeat, raped JCC like nobody else, spanked olympic gold medallist Hurtado.. And keep in mind he wasn't babied & brought along slowly like these other girls, he was fighting decent opposition from his first pro fight.

Most of the blokes who have bagged tszyu on this thread are without a doubt the biggest ****wits I have ever encountered!

The VP fight was a turning point for Tszyu, and I think he'd tell you as much. He took the disappointment from that loss and used it to turn himself into an even better fighter, which was clear in his fights following it. If there would've been a rematch, Kostya would've destroyed Vince, and it's foolish to think that the Tszyu that showed up the night he lost would've been the same one to show up in a fight against De La Hoya.

That's a load of shit, Judah won the first round, though Tszyu was already starting to work out Judah towards the end of the first and continued that momentum to be clearly on top in the second before the KO.
Tszyu beat Judah when he was a favourite and the next big thing, when he was undefeated and at his best weight. Beside one fighter doesn't make a record, look at what a hard time a past prime Urkal gave Cotto.

I wouldn't go so far as to say nobody who's ever fought at 140 beats prime Tszyu, but Zoo at his best wouldn't be an underdog against any of them. At his best, Zoo's technique, focus and precision is just scary. In my view, he's no less than a 50/50 chance against ANYONE.
BoppaZoo
07-07-2007, 05:23 AM
Zoo's best years where from 1998 to 2003 before he was injured.
he beat alot of Prime guys and ruined the careers of guys out there that were undefeated, also Tszyu was avioded like the plague by just about everyone yet still to this day is criticized when really the man can only fight whoever wants to fight him.
yeah he struggled against Phillips and Hatton but seriously there have been other boxers out there to lose fights aswell yet why does Tszyu get more heat than anyone else.
Yes Mosley Skipped the whole division and no one says a word about anything they somehow blame Tszyu for not fighting Mosley or Dela Hoya when both of them avioded Tszyu it wasnt the other way round.
because the Tszyu i know would fight anyone anywhere.

I ws actually watching some Tszyu fight DVDs earlier tonight, and I can only assume that anyone who says the likes of DLH or even PBF KOs Tsyzu obviously haven't seen the man fight.
It's quite obvious from the stock standard lines of 'Crackhead Vince Phillips KOd him" and "It was a lucky punch vs Zab" and "He quit on his stool vs Hatton" that these clowns have never seen Tszyu fight.
If they had they would have a hell of a lot more respect for his ability, and would understand why the whole boxing community gave Tszyu kudos and respect. But I guess these teeny bopper Johnny-come-lately's know more than the boxing community :hey
Tszyu was NEVER clean KO'd in his career - the Phillips fight was ref stoppage and the Hatton fight was retirement, but somehow DLH and PBF KhimTFO? Give me a break.

Tszyu then went on to unify 140. He became undisputed champ at 140lbs after he lost to Phillips. He became one of the P4P champs at the time. He became one of Ring's most respected boxers after that. He had the respect of most of his peers, including PBF, RJJ, and multiple coaches, trainers and experts. You think because you don't see it that way that your opinion is valid?

No, I didn't think so.

Standing IN FRONT of Tszyu has nothing to do with the good possibility of DLH, PBF and SSM (hell, let me put Tito in there as well) all defeating Tszyu. A win is a win whether standing in front of your opponent or on points. A fucking ugly anal muncher like you is aware of this.

Wow, you sure posted a lot of words when all you had to post was "You're right, I'm focussing on Tszyu's first loss and seeing nothing beyond that."
Instead you decided to pad out your post and completely ignore, or fail to understand, the points I made.
It was you who said "the only fight that matters is the loss to Phillips" right? I called bullshit on that, citing what Tszyu went on to achieve after that loss. If you're too fucking one-eyed to take in the big picture, and prefer instead to focus on one fight because it makes you feel a lot better about Judah and Mitchell getting their arses handed to them by Tszyu, then so be it.
But know this - while you try your best to come across as some sort of objective poster, realise that while you measure Tszyu's career on his loss to Phillips, it is in fact you who is doing a disservice to every opponent Tszyu beat after he lost to Phillips, including Judah and Mitchell :deal
Do you understand, or is that a little too much lateral thinking for your one-track mind to grasp?

I ws actually watching some Tszyu fight DVDs earlier tonight, and I can only assume that anyone who says the likes of DLH or even PBF KOs Tsyzu obviously haven't seen the man fight.
It's quite obvious from the stock standard lines of 'Crackhead Vince Phillips KOd him" and "It was a lucky punch vs Zab" and "He quit on his stool vs Hatton" that these clowns have never seen Tszyu fight.
If they had they would have a hell of a lot more respect for his ability, and would understand why the whole boxing community gave Tszyu kudos and respect. But I guess these teeny bopper Johnny-come-lately's know more than the boxing community :hey
Tszyu was NEVER clean KO'd in his career - the Phillips fight was ref stoppage and the Hatton fight was retirement, but somehow DLH and PBF KhimTFO? Give me a break.
exactly!
i get annoyed somtimes in here when i read certain comments but i think to myself this person obviously has no clue about boxing and is just a novice or just plain dumb!
i think a lot of young guys post in here like probably in their early to late teens and are just learning the game and they make rash and no brainer comments as you americans say,but i always know who really knows their stuff just by their comments and i figure other people do too so i dont get into arguments with numbskulls!

Tszyu deserves a lot more respect than what he gets here, apparently we're 'irrational nuthuggers' because we actuallly think his career outside the loss to Phillips matters, and think he'd go longer than 3 rounds against De La Hoya :rofl
I can see why a lot of these yanks don't have any respect for Lennox Lewis either :-(

07-07-2007, 08:53 AM
Wow, you sure posted a lot of words when all you had to post was "You're right, I'm focussing on Tszyu's first loss and seeing nothing beyond that."
Instead you decided to pad out your post and completely ignore, or fail to understand, the points I made.
It was you who said "the only fight that matters is the loss to Phillips" right? I called bullshit on that, citing what Tszyu went on to achieve after that loss. If you're too fucking one-eyed to take in the big picture, and prefer instead to focus on one fight because it makes you feel a lot better about Judah and Mitchell getting their arses handed to them by Tszyu, then so be it.
But know this - while you try your best to come across as some sort of objective poster, realise that while you measure Tszyu's career on his loss to Phillips, it is in fact you who is doing a disservice to every opponent Tszyu beat after he lost to Phillips, including Judah and Mitchell :deal
Do you understand, or is that a little too much lateral thinking for your one-track mind to grasp?
Oh wait, let me guess, here comes the 'styles make fights' reasoning from the Tszyu hater :-(
And in regards to your point about not mattering if you stand in front of Tszyu or win on points? Tell me who the fuck ever beat Tszyu on points you lame motherfucker :lol:

any1 who doesnt respect kostya as a great great fighter maybe the best in the last 25 years needs their head checked!
he had it all ,although he was a slow starter to fights as the zab judah fight showed perfectly the way he stalked him the full 2nd round,the only fault i put on kostyas career was the decision not top come out for the end of the fight with hatton,he had enough savy in the ring to muster the energy to get through even though he had a fractured cheekbone and was exhausted ,i believe he could still have pulled it off and kept his crown with a draw.
all in all though a fantastic fighter,sportsman ,and true gentleman,the kind you want your sons to look up to as a role model.

This is fact, not opinion:
Kostya Tszyu is a great fighter and will be inducted to the boxing hall of fame. He unified a division one belt at a time.
This is opinion:
Anyone who thinks that Tszyu would be beaten easily by anyone is a dickhead. He was never beaten soundly, both his losing efforts were hard, tough give and take affairs and in my opinion Tszyu in his best form couldnt be a large underdog against anyone in his division.
Also, this whole idea that a boxers prime is a set amount of time in their life is a load of shit, things such as strategy, focus, training and personal issues make each fight different from one another and to think that Tszyu was in his prime vs. Phillips is ignorance.
Just the fact that many boxers and knowledgable writers thought he was special says enough. He doesnt need a bunch of fuckheads to shit all over his whole legacy because of his losses.

All greats lose at some point, all boxers have their weakness and KT's was pressure fighters. ODL & PBF are NOT pressure fighters, they are pure boxers which match up favourable to KT.
I still think his loss to Phillips was due to KT taking him for granted

anyone can catch anyone with a lucky shot, just watch lewis vs rahman 1, judah was outboxing him, if judah is the best fighter on both cotto and KT's record then aren't they equal?
Anyone can catch with a lucky shot???
a. Lucky shot? If you think that there no other factors to consider in his knock out of Judah than "luck" you've already shown you know as much about boxing as my as-yet unborn neice.
b. Judah had a good round 1. He came out cocky and ballsy. His usual confident self (He was soon taught a little lesson in humility). Tszyu spent the round feeling him out and getting his timing right as with any other Tszyu fight (AND pretty much every fucking fight in the history of the sport...). Round 2, Judah was totally schooled from the bell. Anything Judah had to offer was completely cancelled out. It took Tszyu 1 fucking round to work him out and have him completely timed and disposed of... something that took PBF a solid 4 rounds to achieve at least.
c. I've yet to see anyone dispose of Judah in the same fashion as Tszyu did (Even though Judah is a shot fighter, was overhyped, is a shell of his former self, blah-di-fucking-blah). If Judah is so crap, why didn't the P4P #1 fighter in the world struggle with him for as long as he did?
Anyways, back on to topic... The DLH/Tszyu match up was put on hiatus for a few reasons... it was always meant to happen though...
The Phillips loss, the networks, Mosely skipping the division, the Hatton fight and Tszyu's management all worked against this fight happening.
Both guys wanted it.
It is also on record that DLH and Mosely had shown the utmost respect for Tszyu and had always seen him as a major challenge.
Tszyu was also very high risk. He did not carry the name of Mosely or DLH nor the reputation at the time. Mosely/DLH and Tszyu were not afraid to face each other... but too many factors played agains them actually sorting out fights.

We're not discussing this though are we???
Give me ten minutes and i could point out a plethora of ATG fighters who never avenged a loss.
Tszyu, at the end of his career went 11 of the hardest fought fucking rounds of boxing by anyones standards against a guy who was in his absolute prime, just took out a P4P in a few rounds and was the epitome of the style of fighter that Tszyu struggled with... please tell me that isn't your best ammo!

No wonder people think boxing is on the slide... they think to be considered a chance in a fight you have to have beaten Superman, Batman AND Bruce Willis in Unbreakable to prove you wouldn't get ktfo against a 'decent' fighter...
And in Tszyu's case he lost twice... once before and once after his prime and they think he's some kind of cowardly dog who ducked/isn't on par with any of the other greats of his time...

Tszyu was too robotic huh? That's why he landed 2 flush overhand rights to Judah's jaw and KHTFO. And prior to those, he had landed some srious bodyshots on Zab, which is why Zab was keeping away from him at the end of rd 1 and for ALL of rd 2.
Tszyu wasn't strong enough huh? That's why he was touted as hitting with the power of a middleweight (and BTW, he absolutely spanked Forrest in the ams, I know, it's a different game, but still, come on man, Tszyu spanked Mosely's nemesis in the ams). Tszyu was recognised as being one of THEE strongest fighters at 140lbs.
Jab? Didn't Judah have a wicked fast jab (and everything else) and that didn't stop Tszyu from sparking him TFO did it? Did Mitchell's jab worry Tszyu?
Seriously man, give it up, you know fuck all - go and watch some Tszyu fights instead of buying into the hype and open your mind instead of proving yourself to be a fucking clown on here :patsch
I know why you're saying this shit - because DLH troubled PBF with his jab :lol: :lol: :lol:

Next you will be suggesting Tyson comes back and fights McBride:patsch
I'm pretty sure most LWW would quit against Hatton if they had been in with him for 11 rounds, do you have any idea how hard boxing is at that level?
wtf ? Collazo who is weaker than Tszyu had hatton out on his feet and had no ounce of quit in him !

Lol... its such a joke the double standards these guys use.
No wonder people think boxing is on the slide... they think to be considered a chance in a fight you have to have beaten Superman, Batman AND Bruce Willis in Unbreakable to prove you wouldn't get ktfo against a 'decent' fighter...
And in Tszyu's case he lost twice... once before and once after his prime and they think he's some kind of cowardly dog who ducked/isn't on par with any of the other greats of his time...
YOU IDIOTS do realise that it wasn't just HIM who didn't fight them right???? THEY didnt fight HIM either you turds!!! I WONDER FUCKING WHY?? Oh wait... Surely it's because he was so crap as to not be seen as any kind of a challenge!!
:patsch
P.S. Nice to see im not the only other aussie on these boards at 4am Mutts!! :P

Besides that, for about 5 pages you're provided nothing but generalisms and side steps to try and get your point across - face it man, you know fuck all and you're just toeing the party line.
Tszyuu WAS a beast at 140 - nothing you and the usual squad of cocksparrers say can take away from what he achieved and what his peers said and thought of him.
And still you haven't provided reasons for why PBF, SSM and DLH 'wipe the floor with Tsyu.' :deal

I don't want to hear about if. And I don't want to hear 'should of could of would of' bullshit. The only fight that matters is the fight Tszyu got his ass handed to him by Phillips. From a couple of post I've seen on this thread it's obviously Tszyu fans cant live down the fact that he was handedly defeated. As I said before you so-called Tszyu fans are doing a disservice to Tszyu by attempting to rationalize and make excuses for his defeat. This makes you look like a poor sport. Case Closed.

If it makes you feel better, you can discard the last part about Tszyu likely destroying Phillips in the rematch.
You still can't argue the rest of my post and win. Saying that Tszyu took the disappointment from that loss (which I never made excuses for) and became a better fighter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.

I am sorry but Tszyu has never beaten any hall of fame fighters that werent light years removed from their prime. The best fighter he ever beat (in their prime) was either Sharmba Mitchell or Zab Judah; depending on who you liked better. He never beat a great fighter(in their prime), I think he loses to DlH, Mosley and possibly Cotto. I think a Cotto-Tszyu fight would have been great; though I think Tszyu would take him out.

Muttley: It was you who said "the only fight that matters is the loss to Phillips" right?
In direct response to Rock0052's statement, "If there would've been a rematch, Kostya would've destroyed Vince."
My God you are an intellectual lightweight, Muddy. You miserably perpetrate as some astute analysis on this forum when essential you're nothing more than a keyboard charlatan. :lol:
I called bullshit on that, citing what Tszyu went on to achieve after that loss. If you're too fucking one-eyed to take in the big picture, and prefer instead to focus on one fight because it makes you feel a lot better about Judah and Mitchell getting their arses handed to them by Tszyu, then so be it.
You're talking loud but you're not saying anything.
It makes you feel a lot better about Judah and Mitchell getting their arrses handed to them.
Not only are you insane but a delusional ADD recipient desperately hanging on your mothers titty.
You have a hard on for Judah and Mitchell. Why? When their names never once came into the equation in any of my post. Now show me where I mentioned Judah and Mitchell? :D However, once again, you deliberately avoided the original question which was "You deliberately failed to mention SSM and DLH" as opponents who would likely beat Tszyu.
you who is doing a disservice to every opponent Tszyu beat
Now you have plagiarized my terminology and use of the word "disservice". What's the problem Mud, having a difficult time being original?
Oh wait, let me guess, here comes the 'styles make fights' reasoning from the Tszyu hater :-(
Simple question: Do styles makes fights, yes or no?
And in regards to your point about not mattering if you stand in front of Tszyu or win on points? Tell me who the fuck ever beat Tszyu on points you lame motherfucker
Immaterial to the question put before you for the hundredth time.
Tszyu was handedly defeated by Phillips and in all practical purposes the probability of Tszyu losing to DLH, PBF, SSM and Tito is greater than any opponent he ever faced in his career.
Now did the left side of your disordered brain comprehend this rather simple information?

no he didn't
i guess shane mosley also avoided him too?
Let's look at it this way, when Mosley and De La Hoya fought each other in 2000, shane made the jump from lightweight to welterweight. If he knew in his own mind that he can beat Kostya, he would have fought him at 140 and then move up to welterweight when the time is right and make a fight with de la hoya seem more important. Oscar and Shane both knew that a fight with Kostya at 140 would be a huge risk, that's why De La Hoya targeted the old chavez cuz he knew it would draw more money. In a way, Kostya was similiar to Aaron Pryor because his resume is not that strong but, he was avoided by fighters due to the fact that they knew fighting him could break them due to the risk factor.

tszyu fought that same old chavez and how can you knock mosley for skipping 140 to go to a higher weight class at 147 against ODLH who is naturally bigger than him & beating DLH at that !

My God, and you're an intellectual heavyweight I suppose, with your misuse of tense and possessive noun - how can I "perpetrate as some astute analysis"? Perhaps you mean "perpetrate as some astute analyst"?:yep
And you've also misused the form of the adjective "essential". Add another couple of letters to the end of that (namely 'l' and 'y') and you've got yourself the correct form ie: "essentially" :yep

Seriously pal, I know you like to kid on you're a literary genius, but all you've posted is a load of piss and wind - and highlighted how very little you actually do know (see the first quote in this post :yep ).
Now you're trying to claim context over what I'm discussing? If you can't back up the crap you post, just give it up, don't try to rewrite the subject matter.
I'm glad you boiled it down to this though:
"Tszyu was handedly defeated by Phillips and in all practical purposes the probability of Tszyu losing to DLH, PBF, SSM and Tito is greater than any opponent he ever faced in his career."
What you're doing is, like I said earlier, basing your opinion on the Phillips loss.
If that is your measure of Tszyu's abilities, you obviously believe that Phillips would beat everyone Tszyu beat.
Like I said, you focus on that instead of taking all factors into account, which pretty much indicates you're not objective, and therefore should save yourself the time of writing pompous, longwinded rubbish when your motive is apparent.
BTW, my apparent plagiarising of 'your terminology'?:rofl
It's a simple trick used to keep idiots like yourself on track - using words and terminology they are already familiar with so they don't have to think too hard and tax their little brains. I see it worked with you, you noticed 'your word' straight away! :happy
Here's some more terminology you should be quite familiar with - you're a dumb motherfucker who suffers delusions of grandeur :yep
I expect yet another longwinded post from you that does nothing but huff and puff, but doesn't blow any houses down - I suggest you check your spelling and grammar before you post it though, so as not to make yourself look like a fucking pompous fool again :yep

I really have to say Kostya's victory over Judah although well deserved, had a lot to do with Judah getting way too full of himself thinking he had Tszyu beat before he actually did. Kostya was backpedaling throughout round one and two getting caught by nearly everything Judah had thrown. Judah begins to celebrate, and then Kostya promtly KO's him. Good job Kostya bad job Judah.

I disagree - Judah only actually landed 3 clean punches on Tszyu in rd 1 - I actually watched it again yesterday. The first one was the uppercut when Judah was on the ropes that got Tszyu backpedalling, but of all the punches Judah threw after that, only 2 actually landed, and of those 2, only 1 was effective, and it was when he had Tszyu on the ropes.
It's a common belief that Judah eased up because he got cocky and started to cruise in rd 2, but if you watch the last 30 seconds of rd 1, you'll see Tszyu get Judah with a nice bodyshot, and it is from that point on that Judah became leery of Tszyu - he felt his power and didn't like it.
So he was staying away from Tszyu in rd 2, not cruising, and he didn't even manage to do that very well.

It's such a huge misconception that Tszyu was losing that fight before the stoppage. I even thought that way til I watched it this year some time... But if you do watch it, Tszyu had him on the run after that body shot and round 2 he adjusted to catch him. Two rounds to time one of the fastest WW and one of the fastest P4P... yeah, what an overrated bum he is. :nut
