Duran over Palomino or Hatton over Tszyu Both fighter were aging but far from being past it. What do you reckon?
Hatton over Tszyu simply because Hatton was not that great of a fighter. What he did that night was incredible. He dug deep and put on the greatest performance of his career to pull off a must win. I think Duran was better than Palomino to begin with.
I think a natural Lightweight dominating Palomino is more impressive than another Jr. Welter dominating Tszyu, but carlos has a point. Duran was just better than Palomino, weight wouldn't ever have made a difference. Hatton wasn't supposed to win. In that respect, it's more impressive.
Yeah I can certainly agree with that, I don't think many people thought Hatton could have won that night.
Duran over Palomino. Tszyu was still tough,but past it. Palomino was still prime. Carlos was a very good fighter. If Hearns,Leonard and Duran had n't have been around on his watch,I think he'd have been champion for a few years.
I would say the Tszyu win is better. I dont rate Palomino, he beat Stracey, an undefeated Dave Boy Green and had a good close fight with Benitez.
Hatton-Tszyu. I rate Tszyu as a better fighter than Palomino, & Hatton was the underdog against Tszyu.
Welll Palomino had a little more left than Tszyu did in those fights... I think he was more dangerouds.. However overall the Tszyu win was probably bigger , as Tszyu was considered a top pfp (top 3-5) guy int the sport, hew was also a big favorite over Hatton... Although the Durna win was big too as this was Durans first big name at WW... Although Duran was favored since he was already considered an atg, and Palomino top contender put at the end.. He had some life and death fights at the end Greene,Muniz 2x and the loss to Benitez.. So my answer is resume and at the moment the win over Tszyu was bigger.. But Palomino was more dangerous and maybe had a little more left.
