    Furthermore, Tszyu never planned to move up. He always said he would fight anybody in the LWW division.
    Hmmm, I was originally thinking that you were making these Tszyu threads in order to make Hatton seem better, but it is occurring to me that you actually seem to be a big Tszyu fan.

    Who do you like more, Hatton or Tszyu?

      To have Kostya Tszyu in todays mix of welterweights would bring me great satisfaction. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be.

        Tszyu was the real thing. Yes, I am a fan of Tszyu. I don't know who I like better, Hatton or Tszyu. IMO Tszyu is HOF material.

          Prime Tszyu vs Prime Hatton? Hatton doesnt have a chance.

            What about prime Tszyu v. prime Mayweather, prime Oscar, or prime Mosely?

            We'll never know because they really never wanted to fight Tszyu. Anybody that says any different is just sour g****s. At least Hatton fought Tszyu, prime or not.

              You really don't think Floyd would have fought Tszyu after he beat Gatti had Tszyu taken Hatton out?

                  Hmmm. He called him out an awful lot in the fights previous to the Hatton defeat, well not really called him out, but frequently said that he would love to fight him.

                    Why would they wait until 2005 to say they wanted Tszyu now?

                      how you know this tho?....Hatton fight him because his fight with Tszyu is big risk but more reward even Hatton loses he will have big purse because of that match. but if he win? just take a guess. dont deny it boxing is business even me will fight Tszyu if the price is right.
