Kosta Tszyu

[7001]

if you said styles made fights, then i think hatton should fight mayweather jn. but before that id like him to have a hard tune up fight!!

If Hatton fights with the same heart he showed against KT, then there isn't to many people that are going to hang. I do think that PBF would destroy Hatton. Nobody can touch PBF right now. He is way to fast and has a lot of skill, with power to boot. I honestly don't think Hatton can hang.

I've noticed alot of you don't give him much credit because of what happened in the Hatton fight.

Now one thing that we all forget is that for a long time, KT was recognized as a machine. Funny how he fights an English fighter in Manchester, gets beat, then everyone jumps on the Hatton bandwagon.

As far as Hatton goes, I think he's being given a bit too much credit for his win a couple months ago. Sure he beat Kosta, however his activity and Kosta's inactivity aren't comparable, nor are the dirty tactics that Hatton employed during that fight.

I'm not discrediting Hatton pulling off a HUGE upset, however I don't think he quite deserves the credit he's being given. If the two of them were to fight again, I doubt the outcome would be the same. I honestly think Kosta wasn't in that fight and wasn't in his usual shape.

What do you guys think? I'm sure the Brits are going to flame the hell out of me, but I'm just giving a different viewpoint.

It wasn't a huge upset to those who knew what Hatton was about, he has the perfect tools to beat Tszyu.

I'd watch some more Tszyu fights if you think that Hatton was dirty. He did nothing in that fight that Tszyu's not done himself, which is why you've heard no excuses from him or his camp. The low blow was retaliation to 2 by Tszyu. Those who say Hatton would have been more severely punished for it in America need to watch the Jirov/Toney fight - same situation, same treatment by the ref.

KT's still a great fighter and I'd back him to win against anyone else at 140 but I'd be surprised if he ever wanted to step in the ring with Hatton again.

I watched this fight today and KT's low blows were not low blows. Yes, they were on the belt line, but not low. Hatton's low blow was intentional, and should have had a point taken. I scored it as a low blow and took the point away, plus I took away a point from Hatton for the knock down in the 7th, and still had Hatton winning the fight at the end of the 11th 101 to 100.

I dont know what some people are watching, all i know is there are a lot of people who repeat what their favourite fighters say. If i hear WWE again i'll scream, god damn Floyd Mayweather with his "i didnt watch the whole fight" bull****.

Tszyu's shot was low, there's no doubt in my mind.



I've watched it a few times and thats really low, i dont see how anyone can say it isnt.

I've watched the fight several times. On the "KD" the highest part of KT's glove catches the lower edge of Hatton's belt line and the other one is even more clearly low. You only have to look at Hatton's reaction to know that they were low. He's not some ***** who tries to con the ref about stuff like that, it's not in his character.

I still see it as being on the belt, at best a little low. What I didn't agree with was the way Hatton handled it. KT's low blows, if thats what we are going to call them, were in the middle of a combo and I think they were unintentional. Hatton's was not.

The only thing PBF will be watching is the inside of his eyelids if he genuinely thinks that about Hatton.

[7001]

OK, maybe not in the middle of a combo, but as you can see, Hatton was trying to punch at the same time and got up in the air a little. I think Hatton was a little weak in the gut, wich also caused the knock down in the 7th.
