Jeff Lacy was purported to be the next big thing, are the people that thought this bias clowns? no, they believed something at a time when there was no evidence to suggest otherwise.
    did you really learn so much about Hatton in the Mayweather fight that you consider him worse than "Khan, Haye, Macrenelli, Witter and even Woods"? he fought like he always did, really.

      You are assuming i thought Hatton was great in the first place. When everyone was thinking how great Hatton was for beating Tszyu, I was thinking that it was a terrible performance.

          Hatton does have a weak level of comp, but you can not take anything from his win vs tsyzu! he did not just beat a once great, but still very good fighter. he dominated him!

            the 1st one? first one I saw him in was the Tszyu fight. Ive also seen his fights with Urango, Collazo, Mayweather, Phillips, Oliveira, Castillo, and Maussa. in fact, I had his fights with Phillips and Maussa on youtube for other people to see before the Mayweather fight to try and hype it, before my account got banned.

            he did the same thing as always, except it didnt work. he could have been a little more active with punches, but Im going to go ahead and say that he was more docile because he was getting potshotted and countered.

            You are assuming i thought Hatton was great in the first place. When everyone was thinking how great Hatton was for beating Tszyu, I was thinking that it was a terrible performance.
            ok then, I can buy that. there were tons of people that thought differently however, so youll have to excuse me for assuming things.

              As I imagined you never saw him before the Zoo fight. Look at the first half of the Urango fight, you will see another way in which Hatton fights, and it was actually common to see him doing that. The wrestling thing started to be his trademark in the Zoo fight.
              Juy swears that Hatton has hips problems, and that's why he does not use as much side movement as he used to. I dont know if its the case, because Juy's boxing knowledge is matched only by his being a complete psycho. (In Zoo's case it was a perfect plan, btw).

                  Im not sure what you mean by that.

                  but Im just going to assume he wrestles because he has to. all due respect to Oliveira and Phillips, but they werent his top competition...by the time he fought them. Phillips was in better shape than Oliveira, but was still old and had seen better days.

                  guys that were a bit better, like Tsyzu, Collazo Mayweather he started holding. guys he knew he could take advantage of he went after and blasted him away. right after he got hurt by Urango he started holding. so Im going to assume he does it out of necessity to win.

                  kind of like Ruiz...he actually fights better(points wise) when he clinches a lot. like in the Golota fight, if Im remembering right, he tried to not clinch and was getting beaten up because he was leaving himself open, and then started clinching his way to more success
