He did run alot and came in to exchange punches very rarely.
He used his speed - combos to good effect - of cours he wasn't going to trade with the terminator most rounds as when he did trade we all saw what happened.
Fare play to Khan - used his speed - head and also showed good heart and he can take a punch.
This will make him a stronger fighter.
Rematch on the cards though - it now makes sense money wise
I wouldn't want to see this fight because they both would be running all night.
I like to see fights like Ricky v Floyd - Khan v The terminator :-)
Make better fights - skill speed v brawlers
A prime Ricky Hatton probably would have finished Khan last night in the late rounds with pressure and being on his chest for 12 rounds. He would have finished him when he got buzzed.
Maidana is a great fighter but for someone who actually doesn't do much his stamina is shockingly poor.
He relies too much on closing down the ring and landing the big blows but doesn't have the stamina to do it and releies too much on power.
Khan was moving all night, and even though he started to gas in the late rounds his fitness is exceptional.
I'm dissapointed Khan didn't go for Maidanas body mid rounds, but obviously there was method in the madness.
Khan traded and took some huge shots and stupid uppercuts and he took them. I give him lots of credit for that.
If Maidana had better conditioning then he would of finished Khan easy. I agree he seemed to run out of gas half way through. I suppose he took a lot of punishment though that slowed him down alot.
I do hope that there is a rematch and Maidana trains as hard as ever and gets in the shape of his life because he didn't look right. Can't take anything away from Khan though.
Dam you Floyd, just fight the guy and stop making stupid demands.
This is a sign that he is having major doubt in his mind on whether he can beat manny or not, something he hasn't had before.
Take the fight if you win, retire and go down as best ever up there with Ali.
Ricky doesn't stand a chance. I believe that SSM will try to out box PBF which is the wrong thing to do. Cotto would run in there and give PBF some really hard body shots. I seen Cotto almost get K.O and still want to fight toe to toe. Cotto has the great power, combination and would cut off the ring. I believe Cotto would give him the best challenge. BUT?! Do I think any of these guys would win??! Nope
Think you were talking about ricky hatton their not Cotto my friend.
Then why do the hatton fans think they he can beat floyd ??? im just curious because i dont see no one being super active for 12 rounds without getting tired...
Then you dont know ricky hatton do you. He did it in all of the rounds with kosta until he gave up because ricky battered him for 11 rounds.
Yawn.
Floyd wont be walking around the ring with a big ass bag around his wast and a camera on his head.
Naps."peeleft:
No he wont have the big ass bag to protect him from those punches will he!!
ricky has took the piss out of floyd throughout the whole press conferences as well. That was so funny" I could do that for a fucking fortnight"
The way floyd looks at the camera after he has done the pad work and everyone clapped that was when i was laughing.
lol man .. lol i have only seen the collazo fight once but ... damn when they showed hatton getting hit by Collazo .... OUCH ... man he got raped uppercut,right hand ., left hand ... lol the thumps were so damn loud ...lol ...
and i also think collazo should have been awarded a knockdown against hatton ...hatton was hurt and went down ... ref let it slide ...
hatton will go down in the floyd fight ... collazo doesnt hit that hard...
Yeh he got hit with everything in the last round and i mean everything but he didnt get knocked down far from it i will post a clip up if ya want to show ya it was a slip. Collazo hits alot harder than floyd and Ricky kept coming forward when he was getting power drived with all of these different shots, it shows what an incredible chin ricky hatton has. I also remember when he got smashed clean from an uppercut from an irish fighter called Amon meagge i think sorry cant spell his name and ricky went down but got straight back up again and didnt look to bothered to be honest. I think he gased in the collazo fight in the last round collazo was coming down a weight and ricky up a weight and collazo was obviously the bigger of the two.
Will floyd get hit by floyd YES OF COURSE but he wont get knocked out i think floyd will catch ricky quite a lot to be honest and maybe go for the body alot, but will floyd be able to take rickys body punches? if he gets one in the right area then its goodnight floyd. Floyd is the best defensive fighter going without doubt he is fucking immense but ricky hatton is also immense at opening people up. If you look at the way ricky feet move when he has got someone on the ropes its quite something he can hit you at any angle.
My prediction: Floyd disqualified because roger jumps in the ring and knocks ricky hatton out. LOL
Doubt its an excuse. What made me laugh though is on 24/7 they couldnt find the room where floyd was having his treatment and they have that done 3 times a week lol
we are, but in sports, we are big rivals mostly in boxing, since thats the only sport we compete in on a high level.
but even if i was to mention say, football, it wouldnt matter since england beat us in our last friendly, but with england looking like complete crap against croatia and other low level teams in the euro qualifier, even team USA might beat them in their current state.
AGREE with that
i bet ricky hatton and billy are loving being the underdogs for this fight. Cant choose between the two. alot of people are saying what a shock its going to be for mayweather when ricky lands some heavy shots but floyd aint stupid, yeh he is fronting to the cameras but he knows what ricky brings heart, power and lots of stamina. Floyd knows this will be his hardest fight and so do all of floyds camp, cant wait for this fight
ffs floyd whats up with you, how many people look up to him and he talks like this. Im starting to stray away from floyd a bit after following him for so many years. I like boxers to show out side the ring.
he used to work in a carpet shop that his dad owned and his dad brought a carpet for £80 and ricky sold it for £85 delivered LOL. And the delivery was 5 miles so it cost about £5 in petrol.

i agree that you have to break it up but not so quick let them hug for a little while and see what happens not rush in straight away like that. And as for the use of elbows ricky said that he would of used them like that if he could but it wasnt he style so fairs fair.
