    Is Hatton really exciting?

    Does anyone know where I can see a fight where Rcky Hatton is exciting like he perceives himself to be. Seriously how come everybody makes a big deal of him being an exciting fighter like when he fought Castillo it was boring up until the point he knocked him out. The only fights Ive seen is where he barely beat a tough but game Luis Collazo, and when he made a joke out of his fight with Urango. Im just wondering where all this hype came to be, If he had a Gatti-like fight in his resume I would of understood. Now im not trying to defend Mayweather cuz he is just as boring Im just wondering why before a Hatton fight a big deal is made of him being exciting.

    No, he's not. It was quite an insult to the late Diego Corrales when he said they both fight similar.

      The Ben Tackie, Vince Phillips and Ray Oliveira fights are all pretty good.

          sure hes exciting if you like watching paint dry. fight fans like to see action, not romance. he just can't stop holding and hitting.

              I found the Kostya Tszyu fight to be somewhat good. Nothing mind blowing though.

              And yeah his fights are on youtube. Just type in Ricky Hatton, and they should pop up.

                  In the video trading section of this site. Much better quality than youtube.

                    Only when he is not holding.
