Calzaghe on Jonathan Ross

He was great until Hatton beat him. Check all pre-fight previews and predictions. Tszyu by death, virtually everyone.

 

Yes but you are only as good as your last fight. Surely even you could see that wasn't the best Tszyu that night.

 

His last fight was a KO3 over the #1 contender.

 

No I mean his actual last fight.

 

But he was only as good as last fight when he fought Hatton, which means he was pretty f*cking good.

Hatton fought him during his actual last fight. Which was when he become past it all of a sudden. Maybe it had something to do with Hatton beating him up.

 

That was a bit cringeworthy

 

Why do you always start getting so angry when it comes to this subject? It's why a lot of people can't be bothered with you on here. Let me ask you this. Do you believe Hatton is a better fighter than Tszyu was?

 

You make it sound so straightforward. Maybe there's some truth in what you say, but the fact is people queue up to fight Hatton, it's a good pay day and he's more beatable than Calzaghe.

 

:good You can't take credit away from Hatton because Zoo looked bad when Hatton beat him despite looking good in all his previous fights. It's like taking credit away from Calzaghe because he made Lacy look crap. It's as if you need to win a SD to get any credit!

 

Do you think Hatton is a better fighter than Tszyu though?

 

How do you sense "anger" through text? I'm not angry at all, just typing, same like you are.

Whether Hatton was better than Tszyu at every stage of his career, will never be known, only speculated. But he was better than the unbeaten in 8 years and 140 champion version. For sure.

 

Hatton gets credit for beating Tszyu. It's just extremely delusional to act like he beat a prime Tszyu in there. Anybody thats seen any of Tszyu would know that, its not Hatton making him look bad, he did it himself. He was sluggish and his reactions had faded. To take it to an extreme level, it would be like me saying Calzaghe beat a prime Hopkins

 

Well put.:good

 

No.

 

Then you are deluded I'm afraid. If you look at a young Tszyu he was an immensely talented fighter with a wide range of skills. He could counter punch coming forward. Hatton is good at what he does but is limited.
