    It was a fierce battle that left Tszyu looking like he'd been hit with an axe and urinating blood as a result of the blatant low blow that put him on his knees in round nine.


    Lewis was furious that English referee Dave Parris did not penalise Hatton for the vicious left hook to the groin that crushed whatever resistance Tszyu still had.


    "I thought it was very weak of the ref," Lewis said. "Had an Australian referee like Billy Males or Trevor Christian seen a fighter do that they might very well have disqualified him.


    "The Hatton camp accused Kostya of throwing low blows too but his were borderline and nothing so blatant as Ricky's shot.

                Kostya was throwing cheeky low blows, Kostya knew what he was doing so Hatton give him something to think about. I didnt see Kostya try that **** again after Hatton's low blow. It was just a warning so there isnt a big deal, to disqualify a fighter for one low blow is a bit extreme. Remember when they disqualified Roy Jones so some silly little thing, its not what the sports about.

                  I am of Euro descent and I say that Tszyu legitimately knocked him down with that punch. It was right on the belt line but that **** with ears they had in there reffing the fight couldn't tell his ass from his elbows.

                      everything else a side, the topic of this thread asks " In your opinion was hatton knocked down?"

                      IMO he was, it was on the beltline... he didnt seem realy hurt and yes it was a dirty fight, blah, blah, blah, but in the end if you want a simple answer to whether it is or isnt, i say it is...
