    I don't have a f*cking clue, I'm a boxing fan - I remember the fight.

    If anyone is reading this, except you, and think's that a "funny thing" that may or may not have happened has anything to do with talking about boxing... :-(

    Of cause. Just like in another thread you remembered that Hatton was new to 147 when he fought PBF. :lol:

    And I said that would be happen, btw. I like Hatton, but I'm a realist as I've explained earlier. Floyd was always going to beat him.

    You havent seen the fight and nor are you aware of Kostya`s post fight comments after the fight. He wasnt even interested in a Hatton bout. Hatton was just a contender. Showtime were trying to build a fight between him and Harris and Harris entered the ring to challenge him. Kostya blatantly said he was considering retirement as he was only fighting once a year and he had no intention of paying the sanctioning fees to keep his belts hence why he was stripped of them all except the IBF. The only reason why he and Hatton fought was because wanted a pay day which Warren offered him. That was the only thing keeping him in the sport.Lo and behold 2 years after the fight Kostya is still inactive and as good as retired. But you knew all of that because you watched the fight right?

    Sorry mr Gazza.

    OK lets forget Ali, Danny Williams and McBride beat Tyson. So I guess they are ATG as well.

    You Hatton shills are the biggest punnani brains in boxing.

    Tsyzu was UNDISPUTED CHAMPION <<<<

    stop comparing him to shot Ali and Tyson, who were neither and hadn't been for a long time.

    Yup I pointed out Kostyas activity since the Zab fight but sleezeball ignores anything that shows Hatton did no beat prime Kostya but a spent over the hill Kostya.

    I have seen the fight, I seen it when Sky showed it - live or on delay, I don't recall.

    But I don't remember every word said in post fight interviews, I'm sorry.

    Kostya was the favoruite and rightly so. Considering the way he brutalised Mitchell a Kostya win seemed inevitable. BUT Hatton struck at the right time. Fair play to him great result. But lets not make it into anything more than what it was. The fight was a foulfest and hardly a vintage performance by either fighter. It was messy and very ugly to watch as Team Hatton tired to copy Vince Phillips game plan and take the fight to Kostya by staying in his grill. It worked Hatton won. And 2 years later this is all that Hatton fans can cling too? Whom else has Hatton fought in the 140lb top 10. Thats right nobody. Not a dam soul.

    Well sleezey just like Ali was past his best (and Tyson when he faced Danny and McBride) Kostya was also past his best. Is that to hard for you to understand ?

    So was Spinks when Judah beat him. Judah is seen as nothing more than just a talented fighter. Why so much emphasis on the fact he was undisputed? So what? Whats the big deal with that?

    Zab is not a lad from Manchester who likes Man City, if he was sleezeball would be going on about Zab being the dogs bollacks.

    One thing though I think even todays Zab (140 or 147) would beat Hatton and make him look more of a fool than what PBF did.

    Zab would tool Hatton thats real. Hatton has NEVER been good vs southpaws and theres no way he`d face a fast puncher like Hatton. it very easily be an early and quick fight for Zab who is though a front runner. If it goes into the later rounds Hatton could out hustle him to a UD but that outcome is unlikely. Hatton wouldnt even see where his shots are coming from.
