    Yeah. That fight was bad for boxing. Both fighters 'lost' but Hopkins was the bigger loser.

    But Hatton vs Tszyu was an exciting fight - it was actually a real FIGHT

    Neither, I fell asleep during Hop/Cal and Tszyu/Hatton wasn't a boxing match.

    Joe C's win was well deserved and Hattons win over Tszyu could'nt have been more dirty:-( Sadly that garbage win gave people the wrong impression about Hatton....an impression that implies mild greatness:patsch the Hatton fight also let everyone know that Hatton is a wrestler not a boxer.....sadly enough Bhop did it along with getting old as where Hatton wasted his prime years wrestling while pretending to be a fighter

    Calzaghe's. He beat the man who was spoiling the fight and cheating. Hatton was cheating like hell when he made Tszyu give up. Should have been disqualified!

    Ricky Hattons win over Tszyu was far more impressive. Hatton was a real out sider, Calzaghe was 3/1 on favourite to beat a 43 year old man. Calzaghe was a much shorter price then Floyd over Hatton even.

    Hatton made Tszyu quit on his stool, Calzaghe won by a much debated split decision and at times was made to look very amature. Many people debate if he even one, he barley landed a meaningful crisp punch all night.

    Tszyu was far closer to his peak then 43 year old popkins.

    It's a no contest for me, Hattons win over Tszyu was far more impressive.

    hatton. Not even close.

    There was no doubt who won in that fight.

    He punished Kostya.

    Calzaghe has openly admitted to punching ond man Hopkins in the balls on purpose. So that blows that little debate out the water.

    Considering nearly noone hardly regards Joe's win against BHOP as a great one, I fail to see how anyone could see it better then the victory over Tszyu. Most people recognised before the fight that Hopkins was barley a live opponent and his work rate throughout the fight proved that.

    If Calzghes win is regarded as greater, perhaps Hatton should fight the 49 year old hit man Hearns to top it.

    Hattons win was more impressive, it was a better fight it finished by TKO and it was a suprise. While Calzaghe's fight with Hopkins was a boring fight, went full 12 rounds and we expected Calzaghe to win anyway.
    Calzaghe and Hopkins are better fighters than both Hatton and Tzyu but the fight between the latter two was more impressive.
