Should the fight be reviewed?

[Adam1979]

As a massive Hatton fan, I think the ref did an appauling job of the fight. I think it should be looked into, to stop things like this happening in the future, but as far as calling this a no contest - that would be ******. Ricky was beat fair and square. Yeah there were elbows and such by Floyd, but Ricky aint the cleanest of fighters. I think if Hatton was allowed to fight his 'Style' he may have lasted the fight out, but he would still have lost badly on points. His style had no chance to beat the much better fighter.

Disagree and I honestly don't think you're too bright if you insist that it would have made a difference and you honestly don't know boxing if you think hitting and holding is legal.

Clinching is very legal. Hitting and holding, you mean what Floyd was doing tons of in the first few rounds?

There's no point in reviewing the fight. This isn't football where you can overturn a call. He got knocked out, not robbed of a decision. If the referee wasn't Cortez, he still wouldn't have won. Mayweather was just too good, I give Hatton a heck of a lot of credit for bringing out the best Floyd Mayweather though.

thank you, i thought more morons would of agreed with me but i give you guys credit. the better man won so would people please shut the **** up. thx. on a side note everything i said had some truth to it, but you cant expect anything to be perfect and i dont really see any fighter gaining a significantly unfair advantage

shetup ***git. dude makes unbiased posts at times where you see no fault in anything Floyd does. your a ***gity ***git.

anyway, true, cortez not allowing Hatton to work inside may have affected SOME of what happened, but Floyd had Ricky's number. He was walking in to so many right hands that a set up and knock out was bound to happen. let the fight be, let Floyd take a rest and choose his next opponent.

You are such a flaming phag..

Phil 'The Power' Taylor's view:

'He did seem to have Mayweather slightly in trouble in that first round, though, and maybe he would have done better with a different referee. I thought the referee was a disgrace. Shouting at him in my bedroom, I was. He should never referee a match again. Something wasn't right.

Why would he keep interrupting all the time, when that's Ricky's strength, fighting close in like that?'

Clinching is very legal.

Gavinz..


Where did I say anything about clinching?

What I said, was that hitting and holding is illegal and this is what Hatton was doing.

Come on, if it was Mayweather you'd be screaming from the high heavens. Besides I made no pact.

Also, could we have a normal sized ring for the rematch? Cheers.

If there gonna start re-viewing the way fights are referred I suggest they begin with Hatton-Tzu.
