    lol We will see guy's lets just hope that Hatton can't get inside!! If he is still in there at 7 its anyones fight..As a fighter Hatton is one of the few fighter's out there who are really into there boxing and not the pound note. That actual fight means more to Hatton than the money I think? I'll be in his corner on the night routing him on. He will have more of a chance than Naz did with Berrea!!

      dude dude
      leg power has allsorts to do wit ur punching power im a boxer my self and never really used to use my legs properly now my new trainer has taut me a little better how to use my hole body when i punch i can **** three times harder that i used to
      havent u ever heard the saying
      "a punch starts from the floor"
      also i dont think bench pressing has any thing to do with the actual match its how you use ur weight and what you do with it not how much u can bench or curl or what ever
      of course this will give u a good indication of what ur potentioal is and what you could do if you use ur assests properly
      and belive me hatton knows what do do with his strengh im sure so does kostya
      boy this will be amazing fight

            june 4rth is the fight i think

            latest comments:

            IBF welterweight king Kostya Tszyu, who will meet the enormously popular Ricky Hatton on June 4 in the most hostile of environments – the challenger’s backyard before 18,000 fans at MEN Arena in Manchester, England, says the fight presents exactly the kind of challenge he needs. "This fight has motivated me to train harder than I ever have before," said Tszyu, who has won 13 consecutive bouts, 11 by knockout. "Hatton is a very good fighter. He wants to get something that has belonged to me for many years. I am looking forward to the fight because I have the hunger too. Hatton will give me a tremendous physical challenge, but I will be ready. Tszyu is not concerned about the unusual start time. "Actually, it will benefit me more than Hatton because 11AM Aussie time is 2AM in England. When I go to Manchester, I will train at two in the morning, but I do not intend to change my routine at all.....Hatton will come at me, especially with the big crowd urging him on. He learned to move forward and apply pressure at the beginning of his career. I, on the other hand, can box or slug. I will have to fight smartly because Hatton is strong."


            --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Ricky Hatton stated, "I have waited a long time to prove myself against the very best, and now I am getting that chance against a boxer regarded as the king in my weight class. At times, it really gets on my nerves when people say I am not world class. I have done all that is asked of me. I have not had a lot of close calls. I should receive a lot more credit than I do.....as strong as Tszyu is, he is not an exceptional in-fighter. So, if I move in quick and throw punches, I will have some success. He just pushed and shoved against Mitchell and Judah. However, because he was so physically strong, he could get away with it. I will deliver volumes of combinations to the head and body. He will not be able to push me around. My danger zone is going to be where Tszyu is in the range to explode one of his big right hands. I have a lot of respect for his right. I do not want to see how strong it is."
            --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            SHOWTIME will televise the potential fight of the year candidate on Saturday, June 4, 2005, at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast). The highly-anticipated event will be co-promoted by Frank Warren's Sports Network and Millenium Events.
