Yes, I think this is all something of a storm in a teacup, Tszyu had a head like a beachball before that fight, nobody is calling him unprofessional.

Agreed. Although i still think his condition is a bit of an embarrassment to say the least

I can't help thinking that the yo yo effect will have a detrimental effect on his levels of endurance. Perhaps not in this fight where he should be as good as he is ever going to be ( or his trainers want shooting ) but at some point in the near future

But Tszyu had been out of the ring for a long long time.

So what, he still knew when the fight was scheduled for..he had plenty of time to shed some weight before training camp.

agreed slapsie i just dont think it will catch up with him yet mate.
hatotn knows this as well i reckon, his shlef life is probably another 3 years max but if he is on record saying he will be out the game by then

What I am saying is fair enough he had weight to shift having been out of the ring nearly 2 years. He's not looking fat at the moment apparently. Point is Hatton has gotten away with it so far he wont come June.

Doubt it will make much difference anyway I fully expect to see Hatton staring up at the ring lights within 3 rounds but could make all the difference if the fight gets tough. Hatton can come again though after this, plenty of good fights out there just hope a defeat wont see him going back to the MEN bum a quarter show.

I'd have a guess and say that if Hatton loses tyhe wheels will fall off and he'll start losing regularly if he takes on top comp

He likes his food, it's good for him.

A healthy appetite puts hairs on your chest. :TU:
