    yeah he clearly won the 1st 7 rounds. but that loss is on oscar man he could have knocked tito out if he kept working behind his jab. still would have been good to have a rematch why didnt it happen? did tito duck him? the money was clearly there to support it.

    Tszyu was done before the Hatton fight. He was a shell of his former self imo.

    To many injuries suffered during training and at his age he made the right descision to quit fighting.

    Had he jumped to the pro ranks 5 years earlier he would have really shaken up the P4P lists.

    I think DLH was just happy to survive the first fight. He was running for his life the last three rounds.

    Not to rehash it, but clearly won the first seven rounds.


    He was outlanded by almost 10 punches int he first round and tito was hitting harder.


    Come on....

    Well if you are looking for boxers who were in champion status when they lost fight, then you should take off Wlad-Purity, as Wlad wasn't champion at that point.

    Harrison - Haye, never understood that one, with it being so close.

    Oscar - Tito
    Huge dough to be made and both had improved when they moved to 154lbs. Oscar didn't want it after seeing Tito wreck fools at light middle.

    Tito - Hopkins
    Really disappointed Tito didn't try to avenge that defeat even though he probably would not have ever beaten a prime BHOP...I always thought Tito's fighting spirit wouldhave made that fight happen.

    Myth, he was past prime but anyone who saw what he did to Sharmba Mitchell 6 mths earlier knows the truth.
