manny steward on hatton zoo

[J !]

Manny Steward's pick, from Michael Woods over at maxboxing -

Also, and ponder this before you hit the bookie: Manny likes Hatton to upset Tszyu. "I'm going with Hatton," Steward said. "I like his activity level. And Hatton is the bigger man. His style can give Tszyu problems. It's the right time for Ricky. He's tired of being protected."


Steward also admitted he pulled the plug on the Harris/Hatton fight, as he didn't like Viv's chances. Obviously has a high opinion or Ricky then.

Using Manny Steward as a predictor of fights is like saying vaseline can affect your boxing performance.

Ok, Maybe I'm ripping a little too hard on Manny. But I don't see Tsyzu having that much problem with Hatton.

[jabsRstiff]

Manny must be on Hatton's payroll, somehow.

[WillieW]

It's a ploy. Steward knows better.

[Bombardier]

Is it possible that Manny knows Hatton from his days training Lennox? I just thought that they'd be bound to run into each other now and then. Probably why he likes him. I respect Steward quite a bit but I can't see him being right with this one. People always count Kostya out...

maybe i thoght it was interesting he came clean on harris as well.
ive not read anyone writing off zoo tho Bomb?
if anything other way round i have it 60-40 in zoo's favour but i dont think its going to be as one sided as many make out on here.

just my thoughts.

I think Hatton will bully zoo, if he can avoid the right hand of zoo on his way in, and get zoo pushed back Hatton has the power to hurt zoo and slow him down with them big body shots.

This fight depends on zoo's counter punching if he fights like he did against phillips Hatton will win, He wasn't that great on the back foot against Tackie but Tackie couldn't hurt him. This is what makes this such a good fight if hatton does get inside he has the power to hurt zoo.

Steward is saying this because he knows that people who bet on boxing will watch the interview, and place their bets in hatton's favor.

While Steward will have 250,000.00 on tszyu in round one probably.

When quick, click boxers can't avoid it backing up how do you expect Hatton to do it coming in?

And did I just hear you say Hatton will BULLY Tszyu?!?!?
