floyd wanted no part of kostya before his fight with gatti but since hatton abused him floyd may say another 90's guy he could make a buck off. i doubt this fight will ever happen unless kostya can comeback this year and win a title against mosley or margarito which wont happen.

 

[TommyGunn]

fair enough guys. I was thinking more on the lines if they had both fought when primed. I mean PBF is obviously in his prime and Kostya isnt.

I think floyd has too many great skills for kostya and would have danced around him. Judah was doing a number on kostya untill he got chinned. Mayweather has a good chin and wouldnt have been blasted by kostya. Too quick, too clever and all round better boxer.

how do you no floyd has a good chin nobody has tested it.

 

[TommyGunn]

have you seen the demarcus corley fight. I no corley isnt a huge hitter but he is no light hitter either. mayweather got wobbled early but kept his composure. I think Mayweather has a better chin than people give him credit for. Better than miguel cotto

deMaracus is gayweathers cheif sparing partner, he knows his style beter than anybody. but your right he did get tagged from a guy who aint a ko artist. i cant wait till the oscar fight floyds gettin smoked.

 

[TommyGunn]

well his chin was tested though.

not against a puncher though.

 

[TommyGunn]

Kostya would win only by ko. But I dont think he would have been lucky enough to catch Floyd. So PBF would win a ud. Sense Kostya is comming back. Look forward to a fight with Mosely by the end of the year.

kostya would have no part of shane. kostya knows he's not big enough to fight mosley, hatton pushed him around at 140 so what would mosley do to him having been more than competitive at 154. shane will fight another twice this year and im 99.9% sure it will be cintron and floyd he faces.

look for kostya to comeback against corrales or gatti.

 

[TommyGunn]

Im not saying that he will fight him in his come back fight. Im saying it might happen in his 2nd or 3rd fight back.

sorry dude i just cant see it ever hapening.

 

[TommyGunn]

no way would i like to see this fight. it wouldn't be a fair match because kostya just isnt big enough to fight mosley, kostya wasn't as strong as hatton at 140 and hatton isnt strong enough to fight the big 147lb guys.

 

[TommyGunn]

With the time away from the ring do you think that Kostya stayed small. Every fighter gains weight when they dont fight. He may not be strong enough but he can make weight and will for that type of fight.

its nothing to do with weight its natural strengh. he doesn't have enough natural strengh to fight at 147lb.

 

[TommyGunn]

Tommy going back to Floyds chin being tested he has been fit flush on the chops by plenty of good fighters. Judah landed a lovely strait that mayweather took brilliant and Demarcus corley landed plenty of hard shots. A fighter with no chin wouldnt be regarded by most as the number 1 pound 4 pound.

Its obvious hes the best.

none of those were ko punches. when a fighter gets hit and there in trouble is when you can judge. just like when hatton was hurt in the last round round against collazo.

 

[TommyGunn]

Would you all agree with me when I say that Kostya Tszyu is, was and more than likely always will be the greatest Light Welterweight Professional Boxer of all time?

i would put kostya at 1 just now because hatton hasn't finnished his career yet. if hatton can beat castillo you'd have to say he was the est because he's beaten everybody at the weight.

 

[TommyGunn]

I think if Ricky Hatton can come through Castillo and then anouther mayjour name he will be ranked very close to the top for lightwelter. Although Julio Cesar Chavez was a great fighter.

In my opinion it would either be out of Hatton, Chavez or Tszyu.

chavez is my GOAT at 130lb but he was great at 135 and 140 to. :thumbsup:

 

[TommyGunn]

Yes. :thumbsup: I like Chavez for the best ever at light welter but Haton hasnt retired yet has he. Anouther few majour fights and RETIRE. He could become the best ever for 140. In my opinion hes already the best fighter ever to come out of britain. Come on Ricky Fatton.

my top 3 brtish fighters are.

#1 lennox lewis.
#2 lloyd honeyghan.
#3 ricky hatton.

 

[TommyGunn]

ken buchanan as a HOF'er would be on my list to along with joe cal and barry mcguigan.

 

[TommyGunn]

Tommy you said in another post that Hatton could beat Chavez. But now he is your GOAT:dunno:

if you read my post again you will see he's my GOAT at 130.

 

[TommyGunn]

you said that he is your GOAT at 130 but he is great at 135 and 140 too. So again you saying that Hatton can beat Chavez.

look bud ive let you dig youself a hole you cant get out of here. ive never said in any post that hatton would beat chavez. what ive said is he would win a close UD with hatton at 140 and that he's my GOAT at 130.

i also said that hatton hasn't finished his career yet and my views on a chavez vs hatton fight could change.

 

[TommyGunn]

ill show you the thread right now where we started talking of this its the chavez vs hatton thread started by tyson. and it was tyson who stated that chavez would beat hatton not me. as ive said before i back my posts up with facts not fiction!!
