Mel Taylor vs Tszyu @ 140

The prime Taylor, like the one who thrashed McGirt vs the best version of Tszyu. WHo wins?

 

Tszyu's fast combinations and slick movement earns him a close decision

 

Zoo gets overwhelmed by Taylor's handspeed & combos, Taylor UD

 

Yeah, I do tend to think Taylor wins this as well.

I don't know if Tszyu could handle the same type of pace Taylor forced against Chavez.

Chavez LIVED for that type of high-paced, brutal infighting. He kept his cool, and just calmly broke Taylor down until the late round where his shots finally took effect.

Tszyu was a bigger puncher than Chavez, but he didn't have Chavez's overall tools; meaning he didn't have the same chin, stamina, defense, in-fighting ability, and overall determination that Chavez had.

I think he gets in some good shots, and stuns/hurts Taylor a few times, but overall gets outclassed.

 

Taylor by a wide decision... Tszyu would be in a shell much of the fight
