ive read a lot most things people have said on this thread,some things i agree on some things i dont. firstly you will probably look at my name and think hatton nuthugger lol im a fan yes bt no nuthugger.
for those of you saying hatton is on the slide...did u actually watch the fight last night?? did you hear what the commentators were actually sayin?? to me hatton looked fine for the 12 rounds apart from that moment in round 10 where he looked a little rocked, bt wen he went to his corner he sed to his trainer i get hit everytime i gamble...trainer replies dont f*kin gamble then...wot im tryin to get across is hatton wanted to entertain his fans he wanted to go for the knock out hence put himself in danger. and he wasnt holding lazcano was doing most of the holdin watch the fight again!!
secondly wots the deal with people sayin hatton doesnt dserve a rematch? hatton and mayweather aint stupid its all about the money,who else will get 56,000 to watch a fight, would mayweather?? de la hoya?? cotto?? name me any champion today who would draw a crowd like that?? no one!!!!!!!! mayweather wants to come fight in england because of how strong th £ is at the moment compared to the $ jus think how much money mayweather would make fightin hatton in england. no way would he make money like that against n e 1 else in the world today...and sadly thats wot boxing has come to...money!
hatton got ko by mayweather but the ref had his part to play,i aint sayin hatton is going to win,honestly i think its a win for mayweather on points with ease, but id defo wana see the rematch just to see wot its going to be like with 90,000 fans at wembley stadium
as for witter....those of u thinking he deserves to fight hatton know nothing about boxing. he brings nothing to the table and as some of u rightly said,he has made his living off hattons name,witter is a rubbish boxer and im glad timothy bradley said "he was too focused on hatton and not me" :owned:
Due to his performances in the Mayweather/Hatton and Calzaghe/Hopkins fights, is Joe Cortez being conned by street smart fighters, bought by someone o senile?
very interesting topic its ashame it hasnt been brought up more often...i know a lot of people on here will see my name and say hatton nuthugger...bt anyone who says theres nothing odd about this referee is an absolute retard lol
hatton vs mayweather...cortez almost made this fight a non contact sport, moving on to hopkins vs calzaghe he allowed this fight to turn into a wrestling match...one thing that confused me was the 2nd alleged low blow...the ref didnt even see it...yet wen hopkins went dwn sayin he was low blowed the ref stopped the fight straight away...how can u do that as a ref wen u didnt even see it happen?? disgraceful ref and i definitely think he is gettin paid from some1
You weren't impressed during the N'Dou fight? Paulie boxed his ears off and knocked him down once. A shutout doesn't impress you? Jeez...
I do agree on the whole Growing Up Gotti look though. It doesn't jive with boxing in my opinion.
if im totally honest mate i didnt think the fight was a complete shut out...and no i wasnt exactly impressed with malignaggi... a lot of people on this thread said hatton seemed to get tired against collazo and mayweather...could that be due to the fact he had to move up weight to make those fights?? its clear to see he can't cut it as a WW. in my opinion i blieve hatton has more then enough to beat malignaggi if he fights the same way he did in his last fight...
witter would pose a threat in his style...bt i think hatton may just might scrape a win against him...rumours of a rematch with flloyd or fightin oscar sound stupid and it seems hatton is turning to the £s
i just wanted to know wot the fuss is regarding paulie...clearly a decent boxer but nothing special???
Nothing is special about Paulie. He is a pretty good boxer, quick hands, but he has no power and looks like a metrosexual. I think he gets publicity because he talks alot, thinks he is street, and got the hell beat out of him by Cotto, but kept fighting. Hatton will murder him in the ring.
thanks for the reply....do u think there is any1 out there to trouble hatton at LWW??
"Contender" promoter Jeff Wald told Rafael that Mora-Ouma was unable to find a new date because there were no slots available on premium cable or on pay-per-view undercards. Most of the upcoming events could not budget the cost of the fight, and Ouma was reportedly unwilling to take a cut in pay. Mora had to go in another direction to stay busy, but wants to fight Ouma in 2008 when more TV dates are available."
well aint that a bitch lol thanks 4 the reply mate,wot are ur thorts on this fight,honestly i want to see mora actually fight and not come out in 20 second spells at the end of rounds,never seen much of ouma tho so not sure what to expect from the fight
i hate how mayweather fans have come out and started to slate calzaghe, he deserves sum respect, he had a great fight against kessler,he had to change tactics,he came in rushed and got caught a few times,kessler landed sum bombs but joe took them on the chin and battled his way to a win,a true champion and none of you can say he didnt deserve the win. now to mayweather, a great fighter i aint going to slate him and say he is shite,i jus blieve he is a great counter puncher and thats it,he can counter most people bt i still feel he can be beaten,same as calzaghe,bt i cant see roy jones or bhop beating him and they are the two fighters being named as his latest possible opponents,wot you guys think??
i cant see how u can make such a statement,joe calzaghe has faught great fighters,how can u call eubanks nothing special?? the odds against him when he faught lacy,and now kessler, kessler will be the future champion and at the age of only 28 he has a massive future ahead of him yet joe calzaghe beat him and IMO beat him well. u should be talking dwn people like jermain taylor,a rubbish champion,fair play he beat bhop bt it was an old poor bhop,bhop went on to beat tarver who again i feel was a poor fighter,then we watched an absolute rubbish fight in bhop and winky. i honestly blieve joe is a great fighter with a fairly decent resume,to say it isnt just confuses me. calzaghe will be remembered for many years to come for being the lad who faught the best, so he hasnt faught roy jones or bhop,they refused to fight him so what can he do about that??
Let it go. It wasn't Cortez' fault Hatton lost.
as a big hatton fan,its hard for me to admitt this bt i have to say deep dwn i think ricky is out of his depth wen he met mayweather. mayweather is a class fighter, but and this is a big BUT for those of you not putting any blame on the cortez (blind wanker) are clearly mayweather nuthuggers, watch the same ref manage the calzaghe hopkins fight,whats happenin there?? im sure there was plenty of holding in that fight lol
from the 1st round rickys game plan was over he couldnt fight his fight, and u gota say mayweather did use illegal tactics to win,bt hey thats how it goes. i must admitt for those who say ricky uses his elbows just like mayweather did ur dead wrong watch his fight against lazcano or any other of his fights, if u find me a clip where he was using his elbows the same way as mayweather ill shut up lol
hello people...may sound like a silly question bt i just wanted to ask is this been shown on TV in the UK i heard they were havin trouble gettin some1 to agree to screen the fite??
its obvious Joe feels safer with Roy than Kelly. Jack always talks the truth, like it or not! Kelly has a way better chance of beating Joe than Roy and the whole forum knows this!!!!
i dnt blieve joe "feels safer" or is "scared" of pavlik...end of the day it comes to money and like many people have stated already, we all know joe would make shit loads more £s fightin roy jones,rather then pavlik.
joe said this might be his last fight...so he wants to go out with a biiiiggggg payday...dnt get me wrong id love to see pavlik vs joe bt end of the day its wot u bring to the table....roy just brings more $s with him and the past history of bein a great fighter during the 1990's along with joe
no matter wot u say every1 on here knows lockett was gona get his face smashed in lol dnt compare locket to calzaghe thats just silly
warren is a twat...he knows along with amir khans camp that the cut helped them big time...i agree with what some people have stated already...mayb MAB was slow to begin with but to get a cut that severe and have ur vision impaired the way he did of course he was going to look rubbish...to be fair to MAB he tuk a lot of shots and never once looked hurt.
i hope for a rematch because i believe MAB cud give khan a lot of problems in the later rounds and id like to see how amir would cope with that. as for amir if there is no rematch he HAS to go for a title now...dnt 4get MAB came up a weight to fight amir...warren knows how to protect his fighters...amir khan...im still not impressed
