HA HA i cant agree more, hattons an overrated bum with no talent. i got banned from boxing banter for saying this LOL i hope its not the same with this site
yea but his corner might have been telling him he had it wrapped up too. so he might have just been going by what they said and just got pissed off when they called it a draw. i know he gave the fight away anyway, he should have known he needed to do more to take a victory in a completely pro taylor envirement. im just more of a fan of actual boxing and ring technicians than i am of flashy wild punching that doesnt even land. im just sick of seeing more and more fights won by not even landing your punches.
honestly, i had winky winning it by 2 rounds , but i think he gave the fight away being that it was in memphis and was pretty much a completely pro taylor crowd. if he fluried in the 12th he could have got the win but he thought he had it wrapped up. maybe in jersery or vegas he would have got the win but like i said i think he made the mistake of letting the judges decide. and the judge who scored 115-113 for taylor shouldvt have been a judge for this fight. hes from that area, and on top of that scored for taylor in the 1st hopkins fight.
i dont really like all that flashyness when your just hitting someones gloves or just missing completely wich is why i had winky winning the fight. Lampley was all over taylors dick too, i hate this guy. getting all exited when taylor would land 4 or 5 shots to winkys GLOVES and shit,, get the fuck outta here, they need to replace that biased bitch. shits suposed to be boxing, not a hypefest or favored decisions.
i highly doubt taylors people would take a sturm fight anytime soon. might end up being career suicide. taylor needs to get his punches more in control 1st and pick up his d
how is there no way winky won the 12th? cause jim lampley was pounding the idea into your head that winky wasnt doing anything? WINKY STILL LANDED MORE PUNCHES IN THE 12th, AND MADE TAYLOR MISS MORE THAN HE LANDED> how was there no way winky won the 12th? lampley was sitting there saying winky wasnt doing anything, WHAT THE FUCK WAS JERMAIN DOING????? NOTHING
Taylor retained his belts, simple as that!! :cool:
Winky didn't do enough to take them away and that is the fact. If anyone has a right to be pissed it's Taylor but he is a gentleman. Not a crybaby like his previous 2 challengers.
Yaeh it's all about the HBO bias. Yeah it's all about the home crowd effecting the judging.
LMAO!! Too rich. :p
its real funny that people feel this way on this night, but then when hatton doesnt do shit to take away collazzos belt people can justify that. im not saying hbo fixes fights or anything even though i do think hatton got a gift decision cause he signed that big ass contract to fight for hbo, but i am saying that its pretty fuckin annoying when everytime theres an hbo fight jim lampley is clearly on one fighters dick and hypes him up like crazy each and every round. im just going to start watching hbo fights on mute cause its sickening. he cant stop praising taylor for 4 punch combos to winkys gloves or punches that dont even land. he sucks and should be replaced. and this goes all the way back to de la hoya vs trinidad, hes always on oscars dick anyway but he seriously almost ruined that whole fight with his constant dickriding
Winky's face defies your logic
a rediculous statement. winky was the much smaller fighter, taylors a power puncher, or course winkys face would be banged up.
let me say this real quik for the people asking what winky did to take the champs belt.
out landed taylor
out landed taylor on power punches
better connect % than taylor
basically bullyed the bigger fighter around and pushed him into corners every single round
dicated the entire pace of the fight even though he was the smaller fighter
brought it straight to taylor, took his best shots and still was never stunned,
and still looked fresher in the last few rounds even though hes the older fighter.
thats not enough to take a belt? how bout when he rocked im in the 9th and jermaine looked completely confused?
hatton didnt want no part of torres. hatton is an overrated bum who will lose i the next yr. he probably should have even lost to callazzo, the challenger is suposed to do more than enough to take the champs belt and he definately didnt do more than enough. he got a gift decision cause he signed a big contract to fight for hbo. callazo schooled that midget and IMO got jerked with the decision. like i said, put hatton in the ring with cotto or any other serious fighter and he will lose in the next yr or even before then.
he said he wanted no part of this fight before but saying shit like this makes me think hes trying to get floyd to jump at the chance. i dont know about this fight for floyd though oscar might just woop that ass
i dont think he was ducking him at all. castillo shouldnt be fighting at 135 anyway, hes been fighting there for like 7 yrs. and chico gave up over a million dollars by not taking the fight. he was just thinking smart and trying to prolong his career. he might never be the same after that 2nd fight anyway and a 3rd one might have really ruined him
