Why do people ***** about hatton, and then not about MOSLEY?

[psychopath]

I think the complaining about Hatton is a hangover from the Tszyu fight.

Exactly !!! Posters tend to shy away from the real arguement. The justification has nothing to do with Hatton being British or Mosley being 35 years old etc etc etc. **** that!

That's not just a hang over of Hatton's fight against Tszyu and against Urango, that's the effect of Hatton's fighting style as a whole.

How can people complain of Mosley clinching when he has shown how he can be a great boxer and puncher in his previous big fights. Did he clinch against
De La Hoya? Winky? Estrada? Vargas?

Well Mosley did dominate Collazo last night and he, basically had Hatton out on his feet, and probably deserved the nod when they fought.. Without question Mosley dominated Collazo. Mosley would knock Hatton out, but that won't happen since Collazo scared him back down to 140.

I don't know about 'dominated', which is a pretty strong word. I've watched it twice now and I was more impressed with Collazo the second time. He is slick and was more accurate than Shane was. Of course Mosely won by a wide margin but a lot of Shane's rounds were fairly close. Collazo did not discredit himself. He fought decently enough against a HOF opponent.

Kball stole my thread. lol I rewatched and marked down both fights. Here is the numbers.


I have 97 times where the ref had to break up the Hatton fight.
I also have 94 times where Hatton purposely tried to clinch. (Urango did a tiny bit of clinching too)

I have 70 times where the ref had to break up the Mosley fight
I also have 58 times where Mosley purposely tried to clinch.

Case closed

I thought Mosley dominated Collazo & discouraged him. I really don't like punch stats but according to Compubox Mosley landed 33% of total punches (200 landed) compared to 14% (87 landed) for Collazo. Mosley also landed 46%of power shots (173) to 19% (67). Mosley had Collazo hesitant to let his hands go more because he was eating hard counter right hands & left hooks. As far as the clinches go, I didn't really notice because there was constant action. Whereas in recent Hatton fights it gets really annoying watching him go clinch alot unnecessarily.
