    Sure, and let's give Floyd a tranquilizer before the fight. Smash his hands against concrete and blow out one of his knees.

    Sometimes it's ok to just stfu and take it.

    Ricky cornered him many times and got out worked. Did you even watch the fight? or just read about it on here and decided to make another ignorant comment?

      The Ring Size was a Non issue... Ricky caught up with floyd often

      the only issue was the ref allowing floyd those illegal moves which gave ricky hell all fight.

        Uh... Pretty much the whole fight was fought in close. Floyd let Hatton come inside on him thru the first 6 rounds. It wouldn't have made a difference.

          He only came inside when Ricky was tired chasing him on the outside. You see?

            Cortez let him do just as much clinching as he did against Castillo. Don't be crazy.

              How can you say the ring size would make a difference when 90% of the fight was chest to chest. You make it sound like Floyd was running all night. He didnt. He stood right in there with Hatton and Floyd beat him on the inside. Hatton wasnt winning the inside game.

              Also, Cortez saved Hatton because he was the one just running in and wrestling. Any other ref wouldve took a ton of points away. If he would just fight normal like Cotto then Floyd wouldve killed him. Why does Hatton have to fight that way? You can be a pressure fighter like Cotto & Margarito without holding & wrestling but if he had did that then he wouldve got carved up all night. He knew his only chance was to wrestle, hold, and smother Floyd but he still wasnt good enough

                  Mayweather barely ran, he circled and threw potshots.
                  It isn't a "tickling match", Hatton accepts the loss, why can't you?
                  shut up with the same dumb comment over and over.
                  If it was a phone booth Mayweather still would have won.
                  If they hugged all night Hatton still would have lost.
                  Hatton will never ever beat mayweather.

                  He just isn't good enough, get it?
                  Now STFU and kill yourself for being ******ed, you fat tongued douche.

                    Give this **** up!!

                    PBF was beating Hatton at his own game.

                    PBF's stamina is on a different level. I heard so much bull**** about how Hatton would set a relentless pace but you could see the wind being knocked out of his sails.

                    Hatton gave PBF a better fight than I thought he would. He impressed me more in this fight than most of his wins.

                    PBF takes a couple of rounds to analyse his Opponent and then adjusts accordingly. He is a marvel to watch.

                      I think the two things that are getting messed up in this is...
                      Mayweathers conditioning and INTELLIGENCE...
                      Watch the fight again.
                      I have.
                      Hatton tried to make it a mauler, wear you out type of fight. His strategy LOST.
                      So Mayweather out dirtied Hatton on the inside.
                      But thats JOE CORTEZ's fault, right?
                      That was Hattons GAMEPLAN.
                      He got out hustled. And then when Mayweather started to find his range...
                      Left hook, turnbuckle.
                      You Mayweather haters took a big L after this one. No excuses.
