I cant blame Mayweather at all, you cant teach an old dog new tricks, Hatton went through 40 something fights with his style, no matter what hes gonna revert back to it.
As the Brits would say, that's all rubbish. Hatton took a massive beating, and whoever said what you typed is a right cunt.
They sure make excuses for Hatton innit?
Hahahaha....what doesn't this person know that you can't jump in against Pac like that. I said in a post prior to the fight that if Ricky comes jumping in like Old Ricky, he will get ripped to shreds.
Ricky did what Ricky does: He tried to be the bully and he got his ass kicked. All that talk about how "I'm the bigger fighter, etc. etc. etc." led him to believe he could walk right into Pac and bully him around.
What Floyd Sr. needed to do (if he didn't), is to smack Hatton of that talk during training camp of being the bigger man because that was going to kill him in the end. If he just thought about this fight being "even," maybe he would have had a better chance because he would have stuck with the game-plan and stayed calm during the match.
Hatton would have beaten up Malignaggi without Floyd Sr.
Hatton would have been KTFO by Manny without Floyd Sr.
Floyd Sr. was no help at all to Hatton, he was just a waste of time and money. Floyd Sr. played him for a sucker to fatten his bank account. He has no affection for Hatton.
That maybe true but you can't say he was setrimental to him, no way. As a matter of fact, Sr. was telling him the right things to do and it was just that Hatton was too old and too far along his boxing career to change his ways.
Haton got caught because he reverted back to doing what he always does, move straight forward and wing his left hook.
Manny caught him with a shirt compact, faster left hook to the jaw and ended the fight.
Manny is just the better fighter, plain and simple and there's nothing anyone could have done to help him win that fight.

Still undefeated in bets I see Samurai?

Thats just a big excuse. Hatton was not doing what he was told to do. Any trainer would tell him to move his head when he is coming in that way and he was not doing it.
Hatton is overrated, has anyone paid attention to how he fights? He has his hands low all the time, dude is one of the most overrated boxers ever. He is definitely better then carl froch though, but Hatton is a hypejob who clinched his way to victoy against Kostya.

How can Mayweather, Sr. be to blame, everything Mayweather, Sr. told him to do he didn't do... he had his hands down too low, never moved his head, and was open when coming in... that is not what Mayweather, Sr. trained him to do. Hatton left himself open and Manny capitalized on it.

Kosta and Manny are 2 different animals.
I believe this Pacquiao would've still beaten the Hatton that beat Kosta. He simply was over matched by a much better fighter.
No disrespect to the British commentators or fans, but boy did they take this loss very bad, much worse than the loss to Floyd. But show some class and dignity, Manny Pacquiao is just a better fighter.
Yeah it pissed me off when they moaned that Manny shouldn't be celebrating wen Ricky's on the canvas.
1. Manny most likely didn't know Hatton was badly hurt.
2. If the roles were reversed they wouldn't have mentioned.
I'm sure mayweather sr didnt help, but lets be real. Hatton went down at basically the first significant punch of the fight. His chin is shot. Whether he went down in rd 1 or rd 5-6 is immaterial.

I don't blame Mayweather Sr., he coached Ricky like he was supposed to.
I do think Ricky should never have hired him however, all he did was confuse his style in the ring.

What a dumb ****ing sore loser. Hatton lost because he was an overhyped overated fighter who got where he was because of his huge fanbase. He was fighting out of his league and Pac showed us just how much.
