Will American Judges Favor Hatton's Aggressive Style?

money wins over all judges, so it really doesn't matter, but to be honest, i truly think that hatton does and will get a fair shake here in The United States. he's become more popular and with this fight he's getting more exposure with Americans. hatton has the style to make mayweather fight, i just hope that hatton has more than one game plan because mayweather is smart inside the ring and can make it look like nothing is happening in the fight, mayweather knows how to control the action, only one fighter made mayweather fight from opening bell to closing bell and he did it twice, castillo, and hatton has not the same style as castillo but he has a similar approach which i think will make an exciting fight................. as far as the judges are concerned i don't think hatton has to worry about them,i think he has to worry about the pin point precise accuracy of floyds punches, because if hatton was stunned by collazo then he really stands a chance at getting rocked by mayweather. but if hatton makes it a gritty inside fight he has a better than average chance at thwarting mayweather's offense. hatton does have a chance at winning this fight. and he does have a chance at winning on the cards too. make no mistake, hatton is the challenger and he is going to have to take it from floyd, that is key.

Nope, since if American judges judged fights like that. Castillo would have won against Floyd then. Category: Exception. :fing02:

The judges will favour PBF like they did with SRL againt hagler Is it because Mayweather is the cross-over star loved by everyone, right? :nonono:

They might make a point of having international judges, or one from the UK and one from the US - but for the sake of the argument I'll assume at least two of the three judges will be American..

The fight is 60% PBF UD 10% PBF stoppage due to cuts 30% Ricky Hatton middle round ko The judges will favour PBF like they did with SRL againt hagler

Not necessarily. Yours truly, Pernell Whitaker Yes, not nescessarily. But not necessarily. Yours truly, Jermain Taylor

Not necessarily. Yours truly, Pernell Whitaker Actually Sweet Pea being robbed against Ramirez, Chavez and arguably against Oscar speaks volumes about (american?) judges tending to favor aggression even when it is not effective. Throw in DLH-Tito or the judge who scored DLH-PBF for DLH. Or Hopkins-Taylor 1, and you can easily see that, 9 out of 10, when there is a dispute it is because judges are biased towards the aggressor and the boxer gets the shaft.

I should have added a "Hatton will get KTFO" option to the poll. I'm sure the many objective members of the forum will fuck up this up with that sort of emphasis in mind..

In all seriousness I think American judges do favor aggression and hard punching more than anything.. But that's just me.

I just hope that the judges are fair and that if the match goes to the cards we will see scores that reflect the match.

I think the judges will favor Hatton's aggression myself.. They need a reason to give it to him. Hell, we've just been exposed as favoring White pitchers in baseball, White players in basketball, and we already know us Pinkies get the advantages everywhere else. :lol1: If it's close - I say the the descision has already been made. Ricky Hatton is going to win a descision.

Well with all things being equal the judges will favor hattons agression. So the answer to the poll is YES. BUT most likely all things won't be equal.
