    Yes, if you're using wikipedia as a reference, then I want their source. Otherwise it is just chatter. Widely criticized by who?

      Watching the fight in slow-mo is horrible. Floyd is SO dirty. I knew he was fighting dirty, but slowed down its just so blatantly intentional.

      Its almost as if he knew he could get away with it.

              Yep. His brains make him great as much as his speed and skills.

                people can point fingers if they want, but the point is, mayweather beat him, and he would beat him again and again

                  He already made up his mind about Hatton before the fight. He ignored Mayweather's constant use of the elbow, warned him only in the 5th round but did nothing about it when it continued for the rest of the fight. And wasn't it an elbow which caused Hatton's cut?


                  The only thing Cortez made his mind up about before the fight was that it wasn't gonna be dirty. It was not an elbow that cut Hatton but a lead right hand. Watch the fight ! Floyd used his shoulders and forearms to block punches . Maybe you should join a gym and try boxing instead of just talking boxing on these boards. Hatton was beat. Period. Quit crying and change your tampon!

                    PLEASE

                    jOE cORETEZ IS A JERK.

                    Ask him what he did when Tyson tried to BREAK KEVIN MCBRIDES ARM OR WHAT HE DID WHEN TYSON HEAD BUTTED HIM..

                    HE GAVE HIM LIKE ONE WARNING IN THAT FIGTH AND TOOK NO POINTS AWAY..JOE SHOULD BANNED FROM REFEREEING AND DAMN SURE ISNT "FAIR"..

                    FLOYD USED HIS FOREARM A LOT in that fight and couldnt have easily had a point deducted..DONT GET ME WRONG END RESULT FLOYD TKO STILL WOULDVE HAPPEN..

                    BUT JOE CORTEZ IS A FOOL HE TAKES THE SIDE OF THE BIGGER STAR IN EVERY FIGHT

                    HE DEDUCTED POINTS FROM CASTILLO IN THE HATTON FIGHT FOR LOW BLOWS AND THEY WERENT EVEN LOW, HATTON WAS HURT TO THE BODY AND LOOK AT JOE LIKE "HELP"....JUST WATCH THE 3-4TH ROUNDS OF THAT FIGHT!!
