Tszyu vs Hatton

[drag0n_]

Wouldn't any of you say Hatton would be one the hardest fights of Kostya's career? Remember Hatton is probably better than Mitchell/Leija/Tackie etc.

Fighting an in-prime top 10 fighter who has a real chance imo of beating him.

Just note to all you hatton bashers...

Has Hatton fought a top 10 140lb fighter? NO, but he wants to against the best (Tszyu) but when he does you guys say "he doesn't desverve a shot" - lmao , he cant win!
Has Cotto fought a top 10 140lb fighter? NO, everyone masterbating over a win against a medicore brasillian ( who pussied out of fighting hatton)
Has Floyd fought a top 10 140lb fighter? NO
Has Gatti fought a top 10 140lb fighter? NO
Has Harris fought a top 10 140lb fighter? NO

So how the hell can you all be ripping Hatton when none of the other top fighters have fought each other?

Its funny how things change, on Tszyu website his fans have been calling Hatton a bum last week but now the negotiations have progressed their all saying Hattons a very good fighter, some saying he's world class!!

What do you guys think? I'm unsure, IMO Hatton has the tools to win but he's never faced a fighter anywhere near as good as Tszyu!! It could be an early KO for Tszyu but i'm expecting it to be a tough fight for both.

KT won't have any trouble with Hatton. Should be a quick night.

Vince wasn't exactly young when he beat Tszyu either and Tszyu was in his prime years so that fight didn't really prove anything either way.

In fight with Hatton Vince was more older on six years. I believe - it is not necessary to explain how it influences on the professional sportsman (the boxer and another). Kostya has lost to Vince for the objective reasons: the opponent was changed in short term before fight (I hope, everyone know - Tszyu should meet not with Phillips); after that fight for Kostya the contract on fight with DLH was guaranteed, people already discussed this fight; and here a meeting with underdog - certainly these facts had in aggregate an effect on quality of preparation for fight: physical and psychological (fight with DLH!!! What Vince? Where? I don ` t care this underdog). I think, at anybody it is no doubt - if Tzsyu will meet with Phillips now and in shape(or one year ago) - Vince would be knocked out. This has made even Millett.

The Tackie fight just proved that Hatton can take care of the other guys as well as, if not better than, KT & Mitchell.

This fight can not prove it in any way. Business all in that: Ben always had serious problems even with a little bit technical opponents + up to a meeting with Ricky he has lost two fights and already any boxer particularly knew how to operate against him. If Hatton has made it with Mitchell instead of Tackie then it would be possible to assume " Hatton can take care of the guys as well as,..., KT and Mitchell ". To make comments on this ("if not better") separately I shall not be - better simply shall laugh.

I'm sure Ricky is monotonous - for the guys he's faced.

Ricky monotonous in all fights, which spent. And I am sure - he never will change.

There's nothing primative about the way he switches his angles to get his shots in.

It is everything, that he is able. By the way, he well do this (shots in) only on an average distance, but also here he is extremely monotonous - that means - is predicted.
I think... I am sure - he during their meeting almost nothing can do with Kostya.

People who think that this fight would be easy for either guy must be blind, crazy or they haven't seen enough of the fighters.

I smile again, Frank. Maybe this fight will not be easy, but he will be not difficult for Tszyu.

would be a good fight imo, i think tszyu would beat hatton tho, wouldnt be easy but neither will it be hard, but hatton deserves a chance against a "big name" could always provide a suprise...

[DR. FREECLOUD]

kostya is the man to beat in that division right now imo. hatton, if they actually fight, will have alot to prove. hattonj is very impressive and i think he actually has a chance against tszyu. i hope kostya wins cause i have always liked him. man i hope this fight happens.

You're funny. I shall look forward to seeing your views after the fight if it happens.

i'm a little worried for Hatton because Tszyu's a great puncher, it could end early but i'm confident Hatton has the tools to win!! Before anyone says anything i'll tell you that Tszyu and Hatton are my favourite fighters and there is no bias for either!! i think Tszyu a p4p great but Hatton could really trouble him, i fight a lot like Tszyu, obviously not as good as Tszyu but my styles closer to Tszyu than anyone else and i'd never want to fight a guy like Hatton(if he was my size) because he's so good at what he does! I slighty favour Tszyu but i not ruling out an upset!

[Hurlex]

damn lol..looks at hamed fly in abover avatar...anyway...KT ko's hatton within 4 rounds..thsi fight wont go the distance...this is a great fight,,,but it wont last...ad who said mitchell wasnt better then hatton???..anway easy win for KT..and the other fight that may happen is corrales which KT would also win

i demand KT/DLH or KT/Margarito

You're funny. I shall look forward to seeing your views after the fight if it happens.

I heard similar before fight with Mitchell many times.
But you when Kostya knocks out Hatton, not strongly be sad and necessarily go on a forum - I shall try you to calm.

I think hatton gets knocked out by tszyu by mid fight. tszyu has faced much stiffer competition and i think his punching power alone would be too overwhelming for hatton
