huh? floyd was killing hatton w/ straight-rights and check-hooks all day
Only in the highlights that happened.
If you see the fight, Hatton was dominating.
Also, before Floyd landed his hook, you can clearly see a blinding flash light in front of Ricky Hatton's eyes, thus causing him not to see the punch. If that's not luck, I don't know what is...
That fight has "fixed" written all over it.
I didn't get the game plan from Floyd SR. Trying to trade with Pac was foolish when he has such an advantage in hand speed. I guess Hatton's team didn't feel Pac would bring his power up but he did and that took away the little size advantage Ricky had. That said, even if Ricky fought a perfect fight I don't think he was beating Pac last night, the dude was just on.
Floyd is going to have his hands full if he fights Pac. I always thought Floyd would just outbox Pac but now I'm not so sure.
Why are you not sure?
Hatton is an excellent fighter, but he's a one dimensional brawler.
He doesn't know how to step backwards and move out of danger, and like Roach said, he doesn't seem to have the capability to adapt a different style.
Floyd can do it all, and when you have a fighter that can do what Floyd can, you have more options on how to approach your opponent. Floyd can throw off both Roach and Manny because he can adapt any style he pleases.
Floyd does it all, he can brawl, counter, box your ears off, ride his bicycle etc...
Floyd can definitely school Pac.
The triangle shit about Pac beatin Mr boat buyer just cuz he whooped Hatton worse than him is foolish.
Yes it is, it shows how clueless some Pac fans are.
If I recall correctly, JMM was the better boxer and all he was doing was waiting for Pac to come in and clipping him with all sorts of shots. Now multiply that with Mayweather's size and skill, and you'll see a one sided beat-down.
floyd is a joke, he'll never be remembered as a great boxer because his opposition is carefully hand picked.
mayweather vs marquez is a joke fight, why pick a midget when you can get mosley, williams or even cotto...
