Hatton wasnt finished, we didnt know about oscar

The argument of Hatton being finished after the Mayweather fight is stupid, the Collazo fight seems to be brushed under the carpet. That fight exposed Hatton big time. The warning signs were already there , whether his punch resistance was on the fall or that anyone with speed and decent pop beats him.

After the Pacquiao KO, you could argue that he's shot. Before it, no chance. I wouldn't go so far as to say he is shot but the way he looked in the Lazcano fight did concern me. The questions I had were if making 140 was too draining for him, whether his lifestyle finally caught up to him, if his chin was dinged prior etc etc remember he had never been hurt short of the McGee fight so seeing him wobble against the likes of Lazcano did raise some flags

to follow your logic, once you get wobbled you're past it, yeah right. it wasnt a pretty fight for hatton, but it was a very wide UD for him too. oh stop putting words into my statement where in the world did I state that? In fact I think I added on that there are clearly other things to look for other than a fighter's record or who he lost to in order to see if something is not correct with a fighter let me ask you this. Tell me what you saw in that fight? what I saw was a fighter who offensively still did the same thing he normally does but whose chin may have been dented a bit because Lazcano is not normally a big hitter, especially at 140 where he had tough fights with Garnica and Viv prior. Yet he hit Hatton clearly and hurt him on at least two different occasions.

Hatton wasn't shot. And Pac doesn't fight like PBF, so I never got the whole "blueprint" bollocks. And Oscar was past prime, and had been for several years. But he was supposed to kill Pac. His fault for fucking up conditioning wise.

no one can take the marquez,cotto and clottey win from pac,the hatton and hoya win are good wins to show he could hang with the big boys.

no but being wobbled at least twice to former lightweight Juan Lazcano gave us a strong indication that his best days may have been left in the ring Dec 2008 to follow your logic, once you get wobbled you're past it, yeah right. it wasnt a pretty fight for hatton, but it was a very wide UD for him too.

A voice of reason amidst the nonsense. sometimes you have to go beyond what a record is or who someone lost to really indicate whether a fighter still has some life left in him Hatton looked like a spent bullet against Juan and were it a harder hitter might have put out El Ricky

it's the way he lost to be fair. He was completely destroyed and showed nothing there I actually think Hatton showed glimpses of decent performance in the Pac fight, BUT nowhere near as good as in the Mayweather fight, where he looked like he had a point to prove. I think he believed his own hype that he is stronger than Pac and almost got killed for it. That KO was masterful from Pacquiao! Oscar was a zombie, which does detract from the Pacquiao fight, but Pac had to do his job and looked excellent doing it. His footwork was nice, he never stayed in one place for too long and rained punches on a defenceless DLH. Cotto I think was the most mentally shot, but also the bravest and had a good first round but after round 5 he went into survival mode. TBH I didn't want any part of that Clottey fight, just like Emanuel Steward would say "it went just how I expected" Pacquiao keeping Clottey in his shell and Clottey landing the right hand when he bothered to throw it. However, I was surprised at the ease that he hit Pac with the uppercut and was also surprised at how shook Pac made Clottey. IMO Marquez deserved a victory from one of the 2 fights with Manny.

I never understood the "Hatton is finished" shit to be honest. Floyd beat him, but it's not like he took his manhood. Losing to Mayweather and Pacquiao is nothing to be ashamed of. And imo, doesn't make you washed up. no but being wobbled at least twice to former lightweight Juan Lazcano gave us a strong indication that his best days may have been left in the ring Dec 2008

And imo, doesn't make you washed up. People say Hatton was washed up because Roach said Hatton was washed up, in fact, he claimed Mayweather ruined Hatton. That and he was coming of a bout where he'd been brutalized by Lazcano.
