Hatton says Castillo fight will be like Tszyu battle

Ricky Hatton received international acclaim with his impressive stoppage win in June 2005 over the great Kostya Tszyu, who was considered one of the best boxers in the world pound for pound at the time. It was a memorable boxing battle in Manchester, UK in front of a sell out crowd. This Saturday night at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, the ‘Hitman’ is expecting another thrilling battle.

I wonder does he mean it will be similar style wise or jus with the same level of intensity?
Really excited for this but got a problem findin a place to watch it as its not on sky sports an i cant get setanta over the net cos' im in ireland...Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!

I imagine he means in terms of intensity. No way this fight turns into a bore!!

Hatton for me, though Castillo is always dangerous.

Exactly. I knew that all Hatton needed to step up his game and give everyone a fight worth watching was a good name and great venue.

Hatton needs to shine. He has had 2 sub par performances. The critics have their knives sharpened. He needs to look good. Hopefully, it will be a fight where Hatton is pushed to perform.

That's exactly what I thought. He needs to win while pleasing the fans , otherwise he's going to have a hard time finding a good fight in US again. He's in Vegas for the first time so he needs to give the crowd another superb performance.

This fight will not be like the Tszyu fight. Hatton won that fight. He ain't winning this one.

As much as I like Castillo, age will be a big factor against him, and I believe that Hatton will take advantage of this and will outwork him for 12 whole rounds if Castillo lasts that long.

Nah man. I didn't get shot. But take your cc anyway. And Castillo will take Hatton's 0.

Tszyu battle is when he peaked, I don't know if he can fight like that again.

Of course Castillo has been looking bad too, recently.

cc back bro good to see your back Fenster has gone missing aswell as for Castillo vs Hatton i call this fight as 50/50 Hatton didn't like it to the gut last time and both men cut easily thats why i call it as 50/50 i really can't split them.
