i think when you stay in mid range to long and start unloading everything you can get tagged yourself one of my biggest criticisms of Amir Khan was he would let hit hands go stay in range whilst his oponent was on the ropes hurt
sometimes you have to keep in mind that the oponent is allowed to punch back

'He's smothering his work'
to be used throughout the duration of any Ricky Hatton fight, he usually isn't he's just trying to manipulate those t-rex arms in a position to punch, or he's wrestling.

"He lost because he was weight drained."
I cannot stand that one. Two of my favourite fighters are Duran and Toney, and in their fights against SRL and RJJ, they apparently only lost because of weight troubles.
Firstly, it's up to them to make weight in a reasonabl manner, and if they have to lose 10 pounds in 3 hours to make weight, it's their fault.
Secondly, that excuse is so common, that we don't even know when it's legit anymore anyway. At the end of the day (*shudder*. I just used the Calzaghe staple), we can only judge by what we see, everything else is speculation and hypothetical.Last edited by Porter's Dad; 10-30-2008, 07:25 PM.
