    Bernard is just saying that..like when he said its going to be another Duran vs Leonard..lol..thats just marketing..he is making money on the fight..so he wants people to think its going to be a great fight...Hatton has not looked good at 147 at all..and people are forgetting that....this fight is at 147 not 140

      He threw a combo right before he got lowblowed by Judah.

          See, that's the thing, I have been thinking about this a lot, but something about Hatton maneuvering in is so good it made him better then zab moving out. See, in theory, the person moving out is harder to hit then the person moving in(because the initial speed moving out is actually faster(when trained) then moving in, this is due to the design of our knees). But did we have against Tszyu, Hatton was maneuvering in such an unorthodox way Kostya could not time him with anything substancial.

          Anyway, this is gonna be very close fight and most likely very ugly.

            Kostya had a very European, robotic style. That akward roughousing of Haton just threw his rigid style off.

              Floyd only is gonna throw out combos on someone who he knows won't answer back with much like Gatti. Somebody has to push him out his comfort zone.

              I wanna know how he didn't hurt his hands against Gatti. He must have some good gloves or something lol. He hit him with every punch there is. Except maybe an uppercut.

                European "robotic" style is very effective against fighters moving in, in fact it is developed against fighters moving at you, thus all the straight punching at different angles.

                    Oh yeah forgot about that lol. He hit him with everything. It was only 6 rounds but still. He needs to find those gloves lol. He was actually putting true power behind those shots.

                      Ricky doesn't move straight in after a few steps, though. He walks down some of the distance before slipping to an angle of his opponent and throwing combos. And then roughousing.
