"The Kostya Tszyu versus Ricky Hatton Fight"

Tanya and Nathan after the fight

......and a few comments from Tanya......

"Despite the fact that I believed Ricky was winning
and would win if it went to the judges I was shell shocked
There were tears (just a few mind you) but I was so absolutely convinced
without a doubt in my mind before the fight was Kostya would win"
and
"I just stood there and watched Ricky bounce about the ring
and get presented with his new belts"
and
"The walk back was uneventful but silent - Nathan and I both felt the same way
- did that just happen?"
and
"I woke at 11.00am and asked Nathan if we went back tonight
did he think it would be different?"
and
"Now the Poms throw the term "gutted" around all over the place
- gutted they missed their train etc.
I have never had the opportunity to use it before so I will say that despite the fact
that the fight was amazing, eleven rounds of a big time title fight, great seats,
awesome atmosphere and probably one of the most amazing sporting events
I have been to or will ever go to, the result left me well and truly properly GUTTED!"

......but she looks happy enough!!!
