    Wrong, Kostya just destroyed Sharmba Mitchall in 3 rounds knocking him down 4 times and leaving him with knots on his head. Sharmba was considered one of the best in the division at the time. Don't try to pull that revisionist stuff.

    I remember the Sharmba Mitchell fight, I seem to remember he performed terribly as much as Kostya was great...I do think that was a last stand of a past prime great fighter Tsyzu v Hatton. Hatton though, at 140, with Billy Graham and the spiteful hunger and fitness, was a ****ing monster, he might be to much for prime KT, he was so strong and relentless and beat some very good fighters

    That's my point, I was starting to fallow Hatton closely and knew he wanted to fight Tszyu, then Tszyu destroyes Mitchell, right after that Hatton announces he is to challenge Tszyu. Tszyu proved to still be incredibly dangerous and that was a incredible victory for Hatton. Like all haters some like to use that revisionist crap, and if you don't know your facts you could possibly believe it.

    So Tyszu wasn't struggling and never injured his shoulder ffs
    Before fighting hatton
    One of the reasons he retired
    But let's ignore facts hey

    So are you saying that Tszyu injured his shoulder sometime between the Mitchell fight and the Hatton fight? The Tszyu that destroyed Mitchell was in fine form and Hatton was a beast at his best the night he beat Tszyu.Hatton deserves credit for beating the leneal Ring mag champ that night.

    No before the second Mitchell fight which put that said fight on hold
    Talks of hatton facing Mitchell inbetween
    Guess what deemed to risky might throw his standing at getting zoo later on down the line
    Lol you know like he could have fought witter
    Carefully guided was wicky and your revisionist shyte won't change that
    Now what is it that I have stated that ain't fact

    Ok, Tszyu showed no signs of having a bad shoulder in the 2nd Mitchell fight, in fact he looked twice as devastating in the rematch than he did in the first one. So why bring the shoulder issue up now? As for the Witter fight, I agree, Ricky should have fought him at some point before his career was over. I don't think he could have lived it down if he would have somehow lost.

    Stop with your revisionist as some others might believe you that koysta didn't have serious shoulder issues similar to the injury that forced vitali to quit
    But you got into hatton at that time and well surely know better gtfoh
    You should have known about him injuring his shoulder training for the second Mitchell fight
    Knowing your facts helps;)

    Same with Kahn an Brook. One can’t stand the idea of losing to the other, in this case it was Kahn an Hatton,their opponents Witter an Brook tried everything

    And mental and money wise both knew they couldnt afford to
    They could not have falsely sold them selves as the best British had to offer
    Hence ducking then belittling thier domestic rivalries hence fhooking the fans over

    I know the facts, Hatton was a beast that night in Manchester and made Tszyu quit. Tszyu supposedly had a bad shoulder according to you, but with a bad shoulder he destroyed Mitchell in the previous fight. Hatton was the better man that night period.
