If any fight could rival the brutal confrontation of Castillo-Corrales, it could very well be this Saturday night’s fight between IBF Super Lightweight Champion Kostya “Thunder” Tszyu and England’s #1 IBF/WBO challenger Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton. Knowing Kostya as I do, I do not believe that as intelligent a fighter as he is, he would ever allow himself to engage in an all-out war such as Castillo-Corrales, especially when it doesn’t jive with his fighting style. Not many smart fighters would.
Prior to his fight with Trinidad, Winky Wright, when asked if he expected to be in a fight comparable to the “C” boys, replied: “Are you crazy, I don’t get into fights like that.” “Famoso” Hernandez, who lost a split decision to Jesus Chavez this past Saturday, alluded to the same attitude when asked the same question. “Those kind of fights take too much out of you.” In the fight of the night, Famoso then went out and engaged in a great brawl, both Carlos and Jesus gave it their all. A fighter may have other ideas how a fight should be fought, but then when a fight breaks out…he’s right there in the middle of it.
