    Tackie... I watched this fight a week ago & we must have been watching a different fight. Tszyu may have not been going forward all night, but he certainly wasn't running.
    Tszyu dominated Tackie. He basically stood where he wanted, jabbed Tackie's head off & never got hit himself. I didn't see one article criticising Tszyu - all I saw were rave reviews saying how Tszyu used his boxing skills to perfection.

    Dude... running is what Oscar did for the last few rounds against Tito. Actually turning his back & jogging away. When has Tszyu ever done that?
    He didn't run against JCC. And who are the 'many others' that he ran from??? I have nearly every Tszyu fight on tape & can think of only one fight where he went backwards for a good deal of it & that was Ruelas. And while he was 'running', he was outlanding Ruelas nearly 3-1 on punch stats.

    Yeah seriously, he doesn't run, and his only backwards movements are because he's setting up something and playing it smart. He's very smart and seems to do everything for a reason. He is without a doubt one of the strongest and smartest boxers of today.

      Immediately following him beating Tackie, Farhood wrote an arcticle describing how he does not take any chances as a fighter, and looked hesitant against a mediocre opponent in Tackie. I saw the same thing. Tszyu looking hesitant, and flinching everytime Tackie threw a punch. I think he went overboard, but I realized what he meant.

      that is not a Bull

      He was moving backwards the entire fight. He would stop, throw a jab or clinch, then back on the bicycle. Throwing jabs while backing up. He never moved foward. Not "running" persay.
      But definitely fits the description of trying to be "evasive". Either you are the aggressor, or you are not.

      Im suprised you watched that monstrosity again. I fell asleep after the 1st round. That fight ****** balls. And I used the wrong terminology. Oscar did "run". KT was on the bicycle.

      I could never understand though, where people get the idea that he is a "pressure" fighter. He is far from it.

        If I can ever get my computer set up to upload fights, I'll send you a bunch of his early fights.

        Surely he was pressuring Judah.

              I think Kostya will probably win but I am not as certain as I was before after watching a few of their fights. Kostya does not seem to fight well on the inside, which is Hatton's specialty. However, Kostya was right when he said that Hatton doesn't know where he's throwing some of his punches and he could really hurt his hands. The problem is even if Hatton were better than Kostya, Kostya is such a great thinker and has so much heart that it is hard to ever rule him out.

                  zoo usually a pressure fighter, boxed tackie beautifully... very few fighters can change gears like that... i dont think that zoo ran, but moved and boxed instead...

                    where are you seeing odds of 3-1 for hatton???

                    best i can see to get is 7-4...

                    3-1 is definetly worth a few quid imo

                      I've only seen Costa once (yes, I do know I'm not spelling his name correctly) but he seemed a ****er too. But does Costa ever run?
                      What I'm asking is... will they go toe-to-toe?
                      I might have a flutter on Ricky... 3-1 odds for him, I reckon he's got a chance. I'm not saying he'll win, I'm saying he's got a chance...

                      Why did you spell his name Cost A Zoo? That doesnt make sense to me.
