I said it before, Hatton is a huge *****. He's a nice, easygoing, funny guy, but he has believed all the hype surrounding him and cannot accept his shortcomings, and he has shown this when he disrespected Floyd (by calling him boring, etc.) and by making excuses as to why he lost.

Originally posted by gavinz1970 View PostI didn't like Ricky's attitude after the fight, but hey, he'd just got KO'd TWICE, once by Floyd and once by the turnbuckle. Anyway, I watched the fight again, and he does have a point. Floyd was holding and hitting a lot more than him the first couple rounds. Ricky has 20 in arms, so obviously he can't stay on the outside and jab, and Cortez would break them up every time he came inside. The amount of times Floyd had his elbow in Ricky's throat during the fight was sickening. The ref warned Mayweather at the end of the 5th for the elbows, but didn't say another thing the rest of the fight after Roger gave him the business.
Cortez took a point away from Ricky after Floyd dove threw the ropes and Ricky hit one of the ropes. But then, at the end of the very same round, Floyd hits Ricky twice in a row in the back of the head, nothing.
The ring was huge, and it was hard for Ricky to chase Floyd down for the first part of the fight, and when he did, he wasn't allowed to work.
Floyd fought a hell of a fight, and he was very gracious after the fight. He definitely earned the victory and more respect from me. But the huge ring, the heavyweight gloves and the unfair ref made it unwinnable for Hatton. Floyd probably wins the fight still with all these variables changed, but I would pay to see it all the same.
