Were Tszyu and Castillo Shot When Hatton Fought Them?

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Assasin, where is the logic??

All this shot **** is really annoying and just a ploy by the nutlickers to discredit a great preformance.!

That makes no sense. If somebody is a Floyd "nutlicker", it is in their best interest to HYPE UP Ricky Hatton. Since Floyd will be fighting him.

If Floyd loses, he lost to a great fighter. Happens. If Floyd wins, then he beat another great fighter, thereby cementing his own greatness.

Putting Ricky down only means that Floyd either beat an average fighter (so what?) or Floyd LOST to an average fighter (catastrophic).

So, Assassin, your accusations and rationale make no sense. Sorry. I think people are just giving their honest assessment of who they think Castillo and Tszyu were when Ricky beat them.

Castillo was definetely shot. I think Tszyu could have been a factor at 140 and possibly won a rematch with Hatton...

if they where shot I shot them

just wanted to say that like Tarver did sounds cool

[C.Y.]

I don't think Castillo was shot, hes always been slow in the first few rounds of almost every fight hes ever been in. The word "Shot" gets banded about to much, Gatti in his last fight was "Shot".

did you even see the castillo hatton fight??
castillo was clearly shot
i guess being in a few wars does that to you
he had no balance, he looked terrible
you already knew he was gonna get koed
Tszyu didnt look too bad so he wasnt completely shot

i give credit to hatton for the Tszyu win but not so much for his win against a shot castillo

Both were out of their prime, but Castillo was shot to death as could be seen from his previous fight. Too many wars..

You could argue that castillo was shot, but tszyu wasn't anywhere close to it. He looked great against mitchell in his last fight, there was no talk of him being shot before hatton beat him, everyone was saying he would knock ricky out.

yer and he could of knocked out hatton, if hatton didn't stop hugging him for 12 rounds straight, I would have to say that was the worst fight i have ever seen.

Wow, you voted for only Tszyu was shot... the only person so far, your credibility is pretty much permanently damaged now.

stop spamming $in - you'll get another ban

You are just giving your opinion again, the only empirical fact are the Ngoudjo and Hatton fights, which go against your hypothesis.

All anyone gives on here is their opinion. You cannot suggest that there are "empirical facts" that a fighter is "shot" unless there is some sort of controlled scientific experiement that can be conducted to provide sturdy evidence.

PS The RIng had Castillo as number one besides Hatton at 140 lbs, based on the Ngoudjo fight. Stop pretending it is only Hatton fans who think that Castillo could still fight.
