Kostya Tszyu vs. Ricky Hatton NOT IN MANCHESTER

i don't get all this garbage about where a fight is, the only time guys who fight at home have an advantage is when they get favorable decisions from the home judges.

Did you miss the fight or something? That ref had to be in the same family tree as Hatton. :D

You have to adjust to the time zone. This means you have to change your entire schedule and have problems sleeping. This might not affect a young fighter in his 20's but a fighter in his mid 30's will definetly be affected.

Did you see the fight?? The ref just aloud both fighters to fight on the inside, it wasnt unfair on either fighter.

Hatton would win again, there was no bad decisions, the ref did a good job and in a fair fight Hatton stopped him. It would be close again but Hatton would do the same again.

I'd be very suprised if Tszyu wanted a rematch with Hatton anyway.

I doubt he would quit again, if anything he would be KO'd before quitting twice. As long as he doesnt spit out his mouthpiece everytime he gets overwhelmed(hint, hint :) ) It'll be all good.

thats one way to put it! :D I definately think KT stands a much better chance on neutral ground after watching how things went down in Manchester. Hopefully the day will come where they do just that...fight again on nobodys territory with a different ref.

You can't say that Kostya Tszyu has no heart and is a quitter after what he did. He didn't have to fight Hatton in Manchester, he was the champ not Hatton. He knew that both he and Hatton would make more money if they fought in England. I guess money got in the way of common sense for him this time.

Tszyu's not a quitter, he would have gone out for the 12th if his corner didnt want him out. Tszyu still one of my favourite fighters, i hope he comes back because i'd like to to leave the sport at the top, a match up against Cotto would be good for him.

A rematch would prove nothing... Kostya took such a beating in that fight that you could just say he wasn't the same fighter. Because after that one I do believe Ricky would win again. Not many fighters like fighting three minutes of every round, and that's something the pale little ****er does well.

Corrales TKO10 Castillo
Hatton TKO11 Tszyu

I don't see how anyone is making fun of Corrales to be honest. LOL
