Is Ricky Hatton the best ever at the "punch and grab" technique.

White dudes aren't packing enough to hit her spot. Hey bro, be careful. I say this because I believe Kim is Armenian, so you might have opened up a can of worms here. You might have just enticed our favorite Armenian advocate and fellow poster, VANESBOXING, to include Kim Kardashian in his avatar as "the undefeated penis %*#%! pride of Armenia". He might do this for awhile, all the while swearing to us that Kim is indeed the best penis *%&$# around for her weight class and seemingly indestructible. Until the unthinkable happens and Kim is subsequently KTFO by a hot chick from the Phillippines and then we never hear from him again. :P

Ignorant, childish ass cop-out since I'm not a boxer you dumb ass, I'm a fan with an opinion just like you. Except mine seems to be more rational. Incoherent.. ^^What the fuck does this have to do with his shitty ass hold and hit style, or you for that matter? In response to all your 'points' You said 'LMAO @ some of you hypocrites praising Hatton for holding!' Most of us were not praising him for holding, we were merely pointing out that his style is effective and that it is a style used by many and has been used by many for several years. As for my childish cop out, hmmm OK, firstly how was your statement rational?, secondly we are hypocrites for apparently praising Hatton's style? When have we not praised his style we would then make us hypocritical??? And my statement about 'showing your belts' was directed at you because you obviously dislike Hatton's style yet you mock us for defending it, quote 'LMAO' even though his style is not the point its the success he has had with it that's relevant, therefore by all means have an opinion but don't mock us about ours unless of course you yourself are a two weight World Champion? That was my point. Oh and if it was anything it was slightly arrogant not ignorant because I obviously knew you were not a World Title holder! Hatton does seem to be doing OK, how is that incoherent??? And as for what does his style have to do with what he has earnt, well everything actually, first his style has earned him his titles which in turn has earned him his shot against Mayweather not to mention his huge following which in turn has led to the networks courting him to show his fights etc etc Therefore it has everything to do with his style. His style you may not like but it is effective and it has placed him in a position most of us envy. BTW before you reply I wonder if you can get through your response without reverting to cheap insults as they mean fuck all mate, after all you are 1000's of miles away from me which kind of defeats the object.

Just so we are certain can we see your World Title belts? Ignorant, childish ass cop-out since I'm not a boxer you dumb ass, I'm a fan with an opinion just like you. Except mine seems to be more rational. Only Hatton seems to be doing OK wouldn't you say? Incoherent.. After all he will be earning enough money to retire in luxury after December so again he cant be doing too bad can he? ^^What the fuck does this have to do with his shitty ass hold and hit style, or you for that matter?

The name of this thread should be: "Is Ricky Hatton the best ever at the 'hold & hit' technique."

LMAO @ some of you hypocrites praising Hatton for holding! Just so we are certain can we see your World Title belts? Only Hatton seems to be doing OK wouldn't you say? After all he will be earning enough money to retire in luxury after December so again he cant be doing too bad can he?

LMAO @ some of you hypocrites praising Hatton for holding!

well some fighters do it, and peopel don't notice it. ive seen hollyfield do it a few times... how the hell u think he got so close that his ear got bitten lol

To my understanding excessive clinching is not allowed in boxing but an exception has been made for Hatton and other fighters latelely. This is not a style this shit is ruining the sport and others are adopting it yeah it like there was one thread made recently about the sport and excitment factor. Hatton is pretty excitign when he is not clincing but Hatton shbould reliese he may have trouble in the future if he keeps doing this, what if Nady was ref the fight what he will do about it because Nady was taking out Rahman Olgea fight and warned Olge for clinching. but it a good stratgey to win, Hopkins did it worse he clinching from back of the neck and made his oppenet bow down and then hit them with a couple of bodyshot or hit to the head

THIS TOPIC JUST SHOWS HOW MUCH HATTON SUCKS I MEAN COME ON INSTEAD OF MASTERING FIGHTING AND BOXING HE HAS MASTERED HOLDING OH LET ME GET IT RIGHT PUNCH THEN HOLD. I KEEP TELLING PEOPLE HE HOLDS AND HOLDS AND HOLDS HATTON IS :lame: SHUT YOUR GUMS BOYO

It works extremely well for Hatton. if you watch most of his fights you will see that it isn't exactly holding or clinching, he feints and smothers his opponent with his nearest arm and throws with his free arm, at the same time he uses the leverage he has gained by the position to pivot his opponent and smash in the hooks. This technique has been used by many fighters for decades but Hatton seems to have perfected it, the reason why he 'gets away with it' is simple, he throws a huge volume of punches from different sides and angles therefore most referees do not deem it as clinching or hitting and holding. Look through the tapes and you will find that it is hardly mentioned by the referees during the fights or by his losing opponents after the fights!

KIM KARDASHIAN. oh ok she looks different everytime i see her didnt know she had that much ass

To my understanding excessive clinching is not allowed in boxing but an exception has been made for Hatton and other fighters latelely. This is not a style this shit is ruining the sport and others are adopting it It's not a new thing; look at some grainy videos, it was much worse at the beginning of the last century

Hatton is not only the the best ever at that technique, he is the best ever period. who is that in ya avatar?

Dont criticise Hatton for it. You have to try and overcome what Hatton does so well. PBF will try to overcome what noone has done so far. Hatton has short arms so he is never far from holding unless hes hitting you close in with body punches.

yes, he is. Holyfield the all-time "Hug and Headbutt" great.

WOW...:ugh: Porque Dominicano yo creo el gran campeon de welterweight es este Sugar Ray Leonard His comment was meant as a criticism towards Hatton, not praise.
