Hatton: "I'll Be On Him Like A Rash"

[moofo]

CAN A CHAMPION FINISH A FIGHT BEING SLAPPED AROUND LIKE A LITTLE *****?

When he won the other rounds yes.
Remember the fight is scored over 12 rounds not 2 rounds.

I'm glad you posted that clip Dios. In the last round, Hatton was hurt for exactly 5 seconds and then came back to finish strong. A great example of how strong Hatton's chin really is. No ***** slapping there at all. IN FACT, if Hatton fights Floyd with the same amount of vigor that he did in the Collazo fight, Floyd will fall. I forgot how impressive that fight really was.

Are the later rounds called "the championship" rounds?

I guess we all have different standards.

DOES A TRUE CHAMPION END A FIGHT BY CLUTCHING ON FOR DEAR LIFE?

EVEN THE BRITISH COMMENTATORS ARE PANICKED FOR HATTON....LMAO

Kostya Tszyu, Dios. Floyd avoided. Floyd ran. Hatton fought. Hatton won.

the last rounds are called the championship round because usually both fighters give it all they have. something that mayweather doesn't do he dances around for all 12 usuing as little energy as he can. masterful boxer, awful entertainment. i'll watch the hatton fight on ppv not because i admire mayweather, more in the fact i would like to see him beat.

Right so have the rules changed now then?
If a fighter wins the last 2 rounds he is champ?
Get a ****ing grip you deluded clown.

Collazo shows Hatton size matters

BOSTON -- The red welts were spread all across Ricky Hatton's face.

The swollen skin beneath his left eye had developed into a protruding purple bulge, providing very visible evidence that he had just experienced the 12 roughest rounds of his eight-year career. The refreshingly honest Hatton acknowledged that Luis Collazo, not Kostya Tszyu, was the toughest opponent he has faced in 41 professional fights.

"I'm not even a puncher, and I had him hurt," said Collazo (26-2, 12 KOs), whom Hatton floored with a left hook 15 seconds into the fight. "That let's you know how much he needs to stay at 140 pounds. That's where he should be. But I would like a rematch."


Thus the wildly popular British boxer could avoid another fight against Collazo and still make the same money for his next two bouts broadcast by HBO. To Hatton's credit, however, he admitted a naturally larger, stronger Collazo hurt him several times in their 12-round, 147-pound title fight Saturday night at TD Banknorth Garden. Hatton also acknowledged that Collazo's impressive performance warranted a rematch, even though Hatton's handlers have more appealing plans for the 27-year-old champion from Manchester.

Tszyu, Dios. There's a huge black hole on Floyd's resume, and it's name is Kostya Tszyu.

mayweather runs throughout 12 rounds. he should be a championship 200 metre runner. since when does he fight the last rounds with his heart? the guy runs to victory like he getting chased by a rhino.
