Comments Thread For: Warrington Inspired By Hatton's TKO of Tszyu as Selby Looms

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The 27-year-old from Leeds finally gets his shot at the world title he has long sought, when at Elland Road – where he will be led to the ring by Lucas Radebe – he can justify comparisons with Hatton. In addition to Warrington’s physicality and growing fan base the circumstances in which he challenges Wales’ Selby are similar to those surrounding perhaps Manchester’s finest fighter on the night he came of age.

Maybe if he had fought some decent oppoents he might have had a chance, he is nothing like Ricky Hatton, in drawing power or skillwise no way he win this fight even by a lucky punch or cut. He ducked Selby plan and simple to get married who the hell does that, more like wanted more experience and was not confident, Warrington is british title level at most

To achieve a similar victory to Hatton’s over Tszyu, a referee as inept as Dave Parris will need to be employed. I’d suggest either Weeks or Cole who have experience at the level of incompetence necessary for the task.

Selby's inspired by Pac's KO of the year vs Hatton.

Tszyu vs Hatton was one of the most disgusting displays of incompetent refereing and corruption in modern boxing. If warrington is hoping for a similar result, be needs to buy the judges and ref beforehand.

For a second there I thought this was 2006 or 2007 by the headline. Damn I'm old. I still remember KO magazine from the early 90's

Gutted I cant be there to watch the leeds faithful's ugly mugs drop

Kostya Tzsyu was a true champion, that’s a disgrace that Warrington bring that up.
The legendary Tszyu should be respected better than that, what a punk. Go Selby

So what exactly did he say that was disrespectful of Tszyu?? He said that Tszyu was a great champion and that he gets motivation from Hatton's performance against him is all that I read. Weird over-sensitive people on these boards lately.

I think Warrington might outwork Selby in Saturday. I don’t think Selby can put much a dent in Warrington either.
