    Floyd just went 22 rounds with two of the best left-hookers in the business. How many meaningful LH's did they land? Combined?

    You have to assume that FMJ is going to take your best weapon away from you. You gotta bring something else.

      Hatton was damned near defenseless after the first knockdown. That was just smart to do. But Cortez had it though.

        they were there to lie down, to get the pay day ...
        good for them ... i feel bad for the british fans that wasted their time
        and money to fly to the US. tszyu had to take far more fouling
        and he quit only when he had really gotten roughed up
        watch the knockout, that was NOT a knockout shot
        if it was Hatton would have been out cold on the ground
        he missed, got hit by a good shot and then lay down
        the second one he basically fell down ... pathetic
        Mayweather has not had a knockout in 4 years
        and wont be knocking anyone out again anytime soon
        you will see ... Hatton basically gave up and took his payday

        Either you are a hater or you just dont know what youre talking about. Floyd KOd Gatti & Mitchell in 2005. Do the math. Judah had to cheat not to get KOd. Hatton was an undefeated champion who came to fight he just got beat by the best fighter. Why are you telling lies about great champions like Hatton & Floyd?

          You're right. Of course.... but I just needed another 30 seconds of that fight.

          Kinda like the 12th round of Tito/Vargas. I send a fruit basket to Jay Nady's house every Christmas.

              Ricky was all to the head for some reason and I still cant figure out why. There was no feint to the right and then the left to the body or anything.
              No excuses thuogh, Floyd done well. I just think your a bit out of order though dios with not giving Ricky any credit at all

                  Goat,

                  a) I don't give Ricky any credit before the fight

                  b) The fight goes EXACTLY as I called it

                  c) I give Ricky credit after the fight.

                  HUH?? That makes no sense.

                  As Dennis Green would say "HE IS WHO I THOUGHT HE WAS!!"

                    Wait. What happened to those 1100 pound leg presses?



                    Guys... I'm almost done gloating. Promise.

                      They cared about Ricky and knew if he got up he would just get hurt worse. I like seeing a corner who cares about there fighter.
