    the power factor of this fight is extremely interesting. Kostya has vicious power but was way more conventional in his delivery but he woul press and press. typing this makes me sad that he hasnt come back since that hatton fight 5 years ago.

    Did you see Cotto at 140? He struggled with lesser fighters there. Prime Tszyu would KO Cotto.

    So? Hatton wasn´t really at his best then, was he? Tszyu was past it against Hatton as well and the number of fouls Hatton got away was ridiculous. Talking about hometown refereeing. Sorry, but boxrec doesn´t tell the whole story, young one.

    Hatton is not better than Tszyu.

    I see Pac peppering Tszyu with lead lefts and gets out before Tszyu can even realise what hit him.

    In and out, in and out, baby :happy

    It will look like Pac-DLH, only a bit less one sided.

    So what if he did? Even when three fighters are in their prime, that A>B>C **** doesn't work. When you throw in all the variables regarding timing, styles, location, age, refereeing and judging, it especially doesn't work.

    Good fight. Pacquaio has the advantages in speed of course but I always felt like Tzsyu was a character that wasn't too struggle by it due to his solid fundementals and timining. I'm a little unsure of who to pick but I'd side with a Pac UD, wouldn't be surprised if KT KOed him. Good fight.

    Tzsyu was majorly past it, rusty, and coming back from shoulder surgery. I remember thinking that if Hatton lost this fight he should never touch a pair of gloves again. Tszyu managed to give a decentish account of himself though, especially with the nut shots.

    I doubt that, Tszyu has brilliant timing and pac has less than stellar defence against counter right hands. Look at the judah fight for how tszyu deals with a quick southpaw. Not saying he wins but it's not one sided at all :firedevi:
