Hatton: "I'm Alot More Clever Than People Think"

[Wiley Hyena]

He was not entitled to a rematch but you would think Tszyu would want to avenge that loss on his record but he didn't. Yea he went for the big payday and quit on his stool and is now semi-retired somewhere thinking about another big payday.........NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

DUH.......lol

LIAR.

Kostya Tszyu fought Hurtado and Gonzales in 98 and 99.

Vince Phillips did not lose a fight beween the time he wiped his ass with Tszyu in 1997 and 1999. He had several consecutive Ko wins.

And Tszyu should WANT redeem himself against the guy who beat him. That is what champions do.

But I'm making a note of two things:

1) You called Vince a journeyman after 1999. (Hatton fought him in 2003)

2) You supported Tszyu going after the money fights rather than the challenge.

Great Post. That's shutdown time right there. Now watch Wiley go all over the place trying to spin it.

Gee I guess those writers and magazines that had Tszyu on their top 10 best p4p list for several years were all idiots right?

Gavin,

Calzaghe has been on the p4p list for a few years. Is he an ATG?

Is Izzy Vasquez an ATG?

There is a HUUUUGE difference between being on the P4p list for a while, and being an ATG. Dontcha think?

What Prime ELITE fighter has Kostya beaten? Still haven't answered the question for me ole Coyote me boy.

I'll answer here....

The two very best fighters that Kostya Tszyu beat were

1) Zab Judah
2) Sharmba Mitchell

[SkillspayBills]

I've answered that question many time, skils my boy. Go back and dig up the threads. Won't do it again.

Oh you gave a response to the question but you didn't give me a correct answer whatsoever I can make a poll to help put that into perspective if you wish, since you love to use them to get your point across.

and he beat them in their primes unlike the old pensioners they were when floyd got to them.

[Maxy]

But if he beats Hatton, then FMJ would have beaten the best at 140. And a man who is actually bigger than him.

Agreed?

Well it must be something to do with their differing metabolisms.

Hatton is the heavier man. If neither man ever trained, Hatton would weigh more than Mayweather. He's 5-6 to Floyds 5-8. Different metabolisms.

Everyone knows the short fat bloke. That would be Hatton if he wasn't training.

The difference is, this is boxing and a boxer will get down to his lowest weight possible in order to maximize any size advantage he might have. Its not exactly some new phase.

Floyd being the taller man, can carry the added pounds more efficiently however...and that for me, kinda nullifies Hatton being the naturally heavier man.

No boxer walks around at their fighting weight do they?

Personally I think Hatton won't be as effective if he weighs in at more than 144 against Floyd.

They were both prime I will give them that. However are they elite?

Of course he's an all time great.

[Vladimir303]

Of course he is not an all time great. And I will not explain why since you did such a fine job of doing it your self.
