Hatton

[majestiC]

"If I am going to stop him, it will be later on. If he stops me, it will be early. He hasn't been in the trenches in five years, though. Let's see what he's got left"

"I know Kostya's up for it, too, and I wouldn't expect anything else from him. But he's had nine rounds of competitive boxing in four years and has been out injured for maybe a total of two years."

All taken from the same interview.

Thats not saying hes shot, he saying he hasn't had any long fights in a while, and when he did fight he blew them away in the early rounds. Ricky was saying that he hasn't had a 12 rounded for ages, which was true. Tszyu was far from shot before the Hatton fight he made Judah, Mitchell both look silly.

No, but you have to admit Ricky is saying that Tzu's fighting ability is questionable. "Lets see how much he's got left".......means that he is not what he use to be and the question is just how much of his former self remains.

I dont know how else you can interpret that.....its pretty straight forward. With all that said it was a very good win.

ummm did you just say that Mayweather has fought every good fighter there is in his divisions, not hardly, Hes fought 4 or 5 good fighters, thats hardly all of them.

Not possible that he was trying to psyche Kostya out by suggesting that he isnt in his best shape anymore?

Correct, fighters often trash talk a bit before fights, Hatton's words were not meant to be taken literally.

hatton is calling pbf now because he feels he is ready to fight him. hatton is at the point in his career that he needs to have big names or he just isn't that motivated.

Hatton will go down as an all time great in britain, just for the basic fact that there hasn't been that many great fighters coming out of britain at all.

Well that might be because we are only a small island compared with the U.S but hey Lennox kicked some arse!
