BraggingRightsCorner.com - " Ricky Hatton is the Logical Choice for Tszyu "... by Darren Yates, from Down ... Ricky Hatton has kept his dream of a bout with the kingpin of the 140 pound class Kostya Tszyu by becoming the first man in fourteen years to stop Ray Oliveira. Hatton dropped Oliveira with a right hook to the jaw and dominated the bout with his usual aggressive busy style, ending matters in the 10th round with another right hand to the head that sent Oliveira down for the 2nd time. Ricky Hatton is the most logical opponent for the undisputed champion to face next as the persistent pale puncher probably represents the most money for the least amount of risk for Kostya at this point in time. www.braggingrightscorner.com /yatestszyu121104.html   (1121 words)

Hatton has a reputation as a banger but he is a better boxer than most people give him credit for and he has the ability to relax, not get tied up and still get off in close quarters with wicked uppercuts. Weakness: Hatton is prone to cut, especially around his left eye where there is a fair amount of scar tissue the end result of headbutts, sharp right hands and an inability to move his head. www.boxingtimes.com /previews/2007/070120urango_hatton.html   (1265 words)

What do you all think of Ricky Hatton - Iron Life Forums Hatton is a great fighter, still has improvements to make but he has all the tools required to be champ.

Arena on October 2 - was announced to the public before there had been consultation with the ‘Hitman’ himself.
