    i;m looking foward to Hatton fighting on until he is the same age as Tszyu was in their first match. Let's see how much he personally considers that 'age isn't a factor' in his reminaing 10-rounders;) ... so he can stick his "well the Tszyu fight this..." and "Beating Tszyu blah blah that " up his rectum.

    he'll be bleating about the Tszyu fight before and after any future fights - forever.

    And Lennox Lewis

    And Juan Manuel Marquez

    And Evander Holyfield

    And James Toney

    wait...but not Tszyu, right?

    :lol: :patsch

    That posted who is making up rule about no one is in their prime at mid 30s is obviously a clown.

    A good basis of being past prime are performance before and if applicable after the fight. Not age. Tszyu looked good against Mitchell and looked ok against Hatton except at the point when he quit.

    The officiating in the Tszyu Hatton fight was outrageous.

    Dave Parris did everything he possibly could to give Hatton the advantage time after time, and didn't even TRY to be subtle about it.

    This attitude of "Oh well, Tszyu lowblowed Hatton so the deliberate lowblow Hatton did back was justified" is rubbish - if you watch the Tszyu lowblows, both of them come from bodyshots that deflected off Hatton's forearm and both strike Hatton's belt area. Tszyu was warned, and then when the fight recommenced, Hatton charged straight in and punched Tszyu in the groin. Why wasn't Hatton warned?

    Nobody said he was in his prime, and at the same time he wasnt shot neither, the man just destroyed Mitchell~ he was still a very live beast.
    and about Ricky doing what he wanted to do in there in terms of fouling, you all mother ****ers need to stop crying with that bull****.

    Kostya is known to be a dirty fighter and in this fight you can see him try to get dirty Hatton looked to the ref early on and saw that the ref was allowing Kostya to fight that way so Hatton fought fire with fire.

    This is not a ****ing game of patty cakes get that **** straight this is the fight game, and if the ref doesnt call it he dont. you cant take anything away from the fighters they did what the officials allowed them to do.

    Hatton made Kostya quit end of ****ing story, was he in his prime, No he wasnt but he was still a very live fighter in there and was the true 140 pound king with out a ****ing doubt.

    you all just seem to go out of your way to hate on Ricky, look I would rather watch any Hatton fight any day of the week over a FMJ fight, you know why? cus in a hatton fight your going to see a fight, FMJ fights are reserved for those who have trouble sleeping.

    Zooka, I respect your opinion and knowledge of the fight game, but when was the last entertaining fight we saw Hatton in?

    Also, I stand by my opinion of Hatton being allowed to get away with murder.

    Tszyu is not known to be a dirty fighter, he is known to be someone who was just as good at infighting as boxing from the outside.

    The reason so many people are claiming he was a known dirty fighter is due to the first Mitchell fight, but Mitchell instigated a lot of the dirty infighting and also kept clinging to Tszyu, so Tszyu started roughing him up to discourage him and keep him off him. Then Mitchell claimed his knee injury and so that fight is looked upon as one Tszyu fought dirty in, when in reality, Mitchell quit on his stool because Tszyu was hurting him.

    From the opening bell Hatton was clinching, grabbing, marching Tszyu back, etc, so to suggest that Tszyu initiated the dirty work isn't correct.

    Roberto Duran was Ricky Hattons boxing idol so any dirty tactics he certainly would`ve learned from him.Duran was a great fighter,but also a dirty fouling fighter that Madison Square Garden fight with Ken Buchannen was the most ridiculous farce from fouling i`ve ever seen when Duran actually was also given the belt.No excuses it was terrible.Probably n1 of all robberies.

    Its funny how nobody can see each mofo on this sight has a biased and an agenda. Got to love how Bazooka threw floyd in a convo that there was no place to put him in..lol. Tszyu was not the cleanest fighter no matter what his crazy ass fans think. Seems like he has the most sensitive fans where they cant take any bit of criticism. I can say he was a great fighter with a weak resume. What the **** is wrong with that. It is true by all angles. Nobody is saying he is a bum but the fact that he never mixed it up with another fighter of his level and he lost to Hatton and Phillips(while prime) would tarnish anyones resume.

    It was actually pretty sweet seeing Mayweather out-smart Hatton and counter his fouls so well, that's one of my favourite all time fights, and Hatton had the temerity to do that childish **** showing his arse to the referee, the sign of a bully that doesn't like it when he has to take it :yep

    I wouldn't say Hatton proved to be garbage, I think it's more accurate to say that his style was never suited to longevity....he was never as good as certain people think though. The same can be said for Froch but I won't hear a bad word against that guy, yes he's limited but you don't see him using dirty tactics and he has chin and heart to die for :good

    TooPretty, tell me what is wrong with Tszyu's resume and tell me what is strong about PBF's resume at 140 and above...and are you attempting to imply that YOU aren't biased and don't have an agenda? hahaha
