Boxing Tonight - Tyson comeback

[Dw3132]

Well whats peoples opinions on this big contest next Sat at the MEN ? So many opinions being offered...Hatton not as good as made out, Tszyu not had many fights recently, fighting in other guys backyard....Hatton never faced anyone with Tszyu punching power. Early Odds.... 1.49/1.5 Tszyu...Hatton 3.15/3.2 ish... Any thoughts ??

Re: Ricky Hatton v Kostya Tszyu 5th June. Yes, not a fight to bet on IMO. Too many doubts for me on both. Hatton simply may not be good enough. Maybe he will but we don't know, he's fought no-one worth fighting. He will also be fighting at 2am - maybe he's acclimatised, maybe he hasn't - obviously he will have been training at these times, but most people just aren't as alert at that time of day full stop. It's a scientific fact that people's bodies start to naturally slow down at that kind of time. It will not be a problem for Tszyu because of the time difference where he is training (Australia). Tszyu has been really inactive - one fight in each of the last 3 years. His last fight after nearly 2 years out was a 3 round KO - his power did it there, but if he can't KO Hatton early does he still have it in him to go to war for 12 rounds?
