I agree 100% that you can't compare the level of opposition yet but I don't think anyone could have dealt with his victims any better than Hatton did. Alot of the people on here make out Zoo to be indestructable but 6 months ago they were saying Mitchell was gonna take him. KT has flaws just as Hatton does and it could be that Hatton has the tools to exploit them. I think that Hatton would have more problems with a super-slick boxer than KT, right hand bomb aside.
The atmosphere's going to be electric. He needs to get into him from the off to set the tone if he's gonna win.
He normally does and i think its key to success, shame Tsyzu has the power to win with one shot.
I've never seen so many fighters lose confindence as quickly as Hattons opponents do, i think a lot of fighter under estimate him, hopefuly Tszyu will do the same.

I know mate. I'm sure they see flaws when they watch his videos but doing something about them is a different matter when he's pounding on them non-stop.
I seem to remember about 80% of "experts" also saying that Sharmba would be too good for KT and that the lay-off would hurt KT, and Sharmba will put to much presure on KT etc.................
This is going to be the BIGGEST moment in Hatton's life and he is basically stepping into the ring with a legend, whose power with the one punch Hatton is most susceptible too, has been demonstrated time and again. Nobody thinks that he may be a bit nervous and even cautious in the first couple of rounds?
I say this because if he does not come out with all guns blazing from the opening bell, he is going to get hurt, and real bad.
I think that if he does what alot of people seem to think he will and pressure KT from the opening bell it is his best chance to throw KT off his game. BUT, we are talking about one of the smartest, most gifted and patient boxers in the world today and if Hatton blinks or hesitates at all, this fight is not going to last long. Nobody is as clinical a finisher as KT.
I know ya all british cheering for the underdog in hatton and compare how before Tszyu fought Mitchell everybody were saying Kostya gonna get laid out and than he won and compare that everybody is saying that Hatton is gonna get KTFO'ed and he is gonna win but it is completely different this time. Most people were picking Mitchell because of the 2 year layoff and most thought that it will affect Tszyu greatly and in Hatton's case he (Hatton) did not have any Layoffs and gonna fight his 100%.
Also dont listen to all these experts better go to some bookie site(Vegas bookies are the best at picking winners) and ask them.
These guys know the deal. BTW most of the bookies picked Kostya to beat Mitchell and not vice-versa. And dont even hope that Kostya will underestimate Hatton. He learns too well from his own mistakes.
