    Will you give props to Tszyu if he beats Hatton?

    My point is this: When Tszyu was to fight Mitchell, the boxing world was relatively split between who they thought would win. In many polls, Mitchell came out on top by small margins.

    After Tszyu destroyed a sloppy Sharmba, many people were quick to dismiss Mitchell as average, saying he hadnt fought anyone etc etc, which took away from the win.

    I'm just wondering if this will happen after the Hatton fight should Tszyu win? Will people's su****ions that Hatton has not left his backyard and is a pretender take the shine off what would be a great win in hostile territory? Or will Tszyu get the props he derserves?

    Just curious

    that W over an undefeated young prime fighter in his own country is good enough for me

      Tszyu has all the accolades in the world. He has beaten a lot of top fighters.

        Tsyzu has a good fighter in front of him. Anyone in their right mind should give him credit for winning anyway he can!

          Hatton is a TOUGH fight!... If he beats Hatton, I'd give him massive respect! (Not that I already don't!)

            KT knocked out the unified 147 pound champ with a couple of lazor guided right hands...he already has my respect regardless of what happens against the green hitman.

              He earned my respect when he beat Sharmba, he made Sharmba look like the fighter coming off a layoff.

                  I already give Tszyu props. He's a damned good fighter and deserves all the respect in the world. He'll take care of Hatton, but those that dont like him still wont credit him for it.

                    i give ZOO a ton of props but this fight with hatton will be just a tuneup for him. he will use his accurate punches and great power to get rid of hatton early, what i really want to see is a reamtch with jab judah who has more than earned a shot at Zoo
