Kostya Tszyu Breaks Down Mayweather-Hatton

[BodyW8]

Kostya Tszyu may look like a taxi driver but he's also former P4P No.1 who has fought Hatton so I think his opinion is very valuable, whether unique or not. I mean you can't blame him for not saying something like "Hatton will win by 1st rd KO" can you?

Well if his opinion is irrelavent.. What does that make ours????
after all he is a professional boxer... and has faced at least one of the guys fighting...

If KT 's opinion dont count.. None of our opinions count.. and we might as well log off and forget the whole scene.. Know what I mean ??

Well said.

[Floyd Fan]

It dosen't matter how much pressure Hatton puts on PBF, it will not be enough to win the fight.

Way to go Captain Obvious. He didn't say **** that wasn't already known by fight fans or spoken by so called experts and trainers.

What the **** is he meant to say douche bag? Some one asks him what his opinion is on the fight and he's meant to think of something no one else has thought of? "I think Ricky will actually use his feet in this fight" Yeah, good one.

It's an obvious fight with both guys having to do what they do best to win. Of course his opinion is going to be largely the same as everyones. He worded it and broke it down better than most guys did so I don't see what your problem is.

there is no way what happened in england, with all the hugging, clinching, head holding, hugging, roughousing all that ****, there is no way that happens again, Ricky aint gonna be doing any of that **** without losnig a point.

Not to mention that viscious low blow that didn't even draw a warning.

But, then again what's a point or two when the other guy is spitting blood?
Hatton is ferocious.

Great point. Good k coming.

True. I think Ricky should be willing to lose at least two points on deductions. Hopefully Cortez will even it out and deduct Floyd for elbows at least once (Floyd is dirty too in his own way -- and I don't mean that as a complaint).

floyd can survive without doing that, you take away hattons inside clinch-fest, hes at a serious disadvantage.

Well Floyd lost a point for elbowing Castillo in the throat in their first fight, and was close to losing more for pushing off with his elbow and just elbowing period. Be interesting to see if Floyd's famous one elbow defense can stop a barrage of body punches.

Kostya Tszyu, former undisputed junior welterweight champion, gave his thoughts on the upcoming Floyd Mayweather Jr-Ricky Hatton scrap on Saturday in Las Vegas. Tszyu says Hatton needs to follow the same strategy he used on him in 2005, which became Hatton's career defining fight when Tszyu was unable to come out for the twelfth and final round. To beat Hatton, Tszyu said Mayweather must keep the fight at a distance. [details]

You can hear the respect Kostya has for Hatton.
