There won't be any need for excuses. Tsyzu is one of the best best boxers on earth, now or ever. There is no shame in losing to him.

If Hatton does come in at 160 come fight, he wants the size advantage that Phillipps had. The reason Phillipps won that fight was because of all the body punches that Vince invested. And I'm sure being a devastating body puncher, that's where he's betting. Thing is there's really no proven blueprint to beat Tszyu cuz that happened 8 years ago. That's why KT said that the 35 year old Tszyu can crush the 25 year old Tszyu to acknowledge Hatton's plan. I also don't like Hatton's untested chin, and KT's power is not exactly a safe gauge.
And if there's anyone of the two that should be more nervous it should be Tszyu, he's the champ who's a 5:1 favorite.
Also might be a reason Tszyu didnt mind fighting in England, how much more preassure if he was fighting in front of his home crowd facing a dangerous young opponent, and being a 5:1 favorite...Last edited by m00ks; 06-04-2005, 01:17 AM.Comment

hatton throws those wide european punches. and i think he's stuck at fighting one way. hattons questionable power busy work rate and good bodypunches in previous fights against second tier fighters won't have the same effects on an expierence guy like tszyu who always shows up in the best of shape and always makes intelligent adjustments.Originally posted by m00ksIf Hatton does come in at 160 come fight, he wants the size advantage that Phillipps had.

tszyu is the most calmest fighter iv'e ever seen. he's never shown that he gets ruffled fighting away from home. altho i must say no boxer should ever fight in puerto rico or germany.Comment
