In your opinion was hatton knocked down?

[EXIGE]

To answer the original question its not a matter of opinion. Hatton did get knocked down and thats a fact, and no it wasnt a knockdown because the referee said it wasnt and his choice is final (and thats a fact too).

But Kostya Tszyu was knocked down aswell and thats a fact. And i wouldnt discredit Hatton for winning the fight on the dirty gameplan that Tszyu brought into the fight which Ricky then adapted to.

That's it tubby I'm coming to kick your ass
And i know it'l be easy to find you being rik wallers twin

You couldnt kick my ass, you probably cant even read a map so the chances of you even getting here for a fight are slim. You bring Robin Hood and your mate Chris Eubank and if all 3 of you can hit me at the same time i'd give you a punchers chance!!

Idiot ref called it a "slip" like wtf. Either call it low or call it a knockdown. I thought it was a good body shot.

the REF ignored that punch, it was not a slip. IMO it was a knockdown. if not that it should have been counted as a low blow, it was a difficult call but it was one or the other

Watch the fight carefully, learn the rules.

On the belt is fine. Below the belt is not.

It hit on the belt, and put Hatton down (but did not overly hurt him). It is a knockdown.

I actually think if it was counted as it shoudl have been, Tszyu would have been strengthened a lot by it. He said afterwards that he didnt come out in the 12th because he was behind on the cards. With this knockdown, he might have given himself a chance.

This is taking nothing away from the win - Hatton definetaly derserved it, the aging Tszyu did not.

I just watch the fight last night. Good punch, should have been a knock down. And Zu should have fought that last round.
