Well Hatton got tons of respect and finally made a name for himself everywhere and Tszyu retired ??
Yeah but everyone says Tszyu was shot....on this board anyway.
I dont think KT was shot, maybe past his best but still good. I think maybe by fighting in Rickys home town with a british ref he bit off more than he could chew to make some good money. It def gained Hatton a lot of respect as well.
How can it gain him respect? Everyone NOW says he was a shot fighter going in there. Somehow the guy who blew Sharmba into the weeds (yet again) was now a 'done' fighter because rick beat him?
I think the fact he got to Sharmba early hid the fact that he was on the decline. Dont get me wrong he was still a threat when he fought Ricky but i dont think he was the same KT as 99 or so.
Look at the fighters before Mitchell.
I mean Tackie was an easy win cos he is no world beater.
Kostya struggled against Leija really, watch the fight it says KO 6 but he did not dominate it.
Anyway Ricky got a lot more respect from beating KT than he would have from losing. Lose that fight and many would have said it proved he was overrated especially considering it was his home town with his ref.
