    it is hattons win, it's a joke how it's underrated now, he didn't get fighter of the year award for nothing. the fact that he retired afterwards says more about the beating he took than how shot he was. he anialiated mitchell 6 months before fighting hatton and was a massive favourite to win. he may not have been at his utmost peak but you've only got to see how he battled for 11 rounds in an intense fight to see how he wasn't shot.

    if koysta had carried on after that night, he would have still beaten everybody else at 140 at the time including cotto. and with his power and timing and skill at despatching slick fighters pbf/kostya could have gone either way. hatton just had the style to beat him that night.

    Hatton's win easily. Tszyu was consensus number three P4P and had destroyed Mitchell months earlier. Hatton was underdog despite home advantage and made Tszyu quit.

    Sharmba was more shot than Kostya was as that was the SECOND time that Tszyu stopped him.As for a 35+ Kostya beating Cotto at that point,you got a crystal ball or something?As far as the Hatton victory over Kostya that night,incompetent Dave Parriss had as much to do with that as anyone.
