    Not shot buddy, but well past his best.

    Amateur record of 259/11, which impacted his prime.... as it would anyone.

    Injury played no part in the DLH match up, it was a mixure things, but primarily DLH avoided KT and moved to 147 for the bigger purse fights.

    Tsyzu was shot against Hatton. Badly, just look how ineffective his left hand was compared to just about every other fight he had.

    A non shot Tszyu destroys Hatton, via way of stoppage.

    There's plenty of interesting articles out there with equal arguments from both party's, but I tend to agree with you as there's nothing concrete to suggest DLH ducked anyone for more than a financial gain.

    Tszyu was p4p no 3 when Hatton fought him. The same position Calzaghe finds himself in now.

    Get over it you Hatton Haters, it was a good win for Hatton.

    kostya is one of my favorite fighters, the most devastating right hand in the light welterweight division .
