    Kostya Tszyu did a very good fight against R. Hatton

    I don't think that Kostya Tszyu was too bad that night.
    I think he resisted too many rounds (11) to R. Hatton who did rabbit punches, plus the swarming tactics of Hatton prevented Kostya T. from unloading, and laying on a fighter takes a lot out of him.
    Also, Hatton throws hundreds of punches more than his adversaries every fight, both to the body and head.
    Kostya T. fought 9 rounds in 3 years, some fighters do 20-50 rounds per year.
    Also, Kostya T. style needs to find a moment to throw a powerful right hand, that couldn't be used with the fast rhythm Hatton did. However he actually won some rounds.
    All the above without mentioning another three factors: his age, the crowd and the fact he didn't train at 2AM.
    The fight was relatively close on judges scorecards.

    What do you think?
    I believe some other guys would have resisted far less than 11 rounds in these conditions.

      If you want to stop go on and read other threads, no problem. I preferred to do the tread now because after the fight there were so many threads that was impossible to read all. Also, immediately after the fight feelings are different than weeks after.

        I felt the elbows and low blows and headbutts helped Hatton beat Tszyu. Many will agree and many will disagree with me but that's how teh fight was.

          Hatten had incredible energy in that fight. How the hell he had all that energy in the 11th is beyond me.

            I think the ref Dave Parris & Tszu's trainer tag teamed with Hatton to beat Tszyu. I've never seen a corner stop the fight with 1 round remaining especially if your fighter is not hurt badly. It doesn't make any sense. I think Tszu's trainer might of been paid some money by Hatton promoter Warren.

              I think your name should be shortened to simply "Odius".

                  Devil you're a dumbass, so I don't take you to seriously. You're the same idiot that thinks Chris Bird would've beaten Ali.
