was Hatton really that good against Mayweather?

lyrical, do us a favor and stfu and stop taking away from hatton he fought a great fight win or lose and most everyone on here can agree with that.

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Judah, Oscar, Castillo, and Chavez did better

Even Corley did better. At least he buzzed Floyd and saw the final bell.

Judah, Oscar, Castillo, and Chavez did better

Chop Chop and Augustus did better also

It was a very close fight until round 8, when Hatton noticably started tiring. It was a good fight, and would have been a classic had Joe Cortez not intervened in the first 5 rounds. Anybody that says this fight was a Floyd blowout has got **** for brains.

Cortez SUCKS. He rode Hatton until he was wet, and then let Floyd take over. That's the truth of the matter.

This wasn't a close fight. Not in effective punches. Not in damage. Not in scoring. Not in the result.

Three judges and almost everybody at press row saw a near blowout.

Wiley, what happened to "No Excuses"?

[DIOS DOMINICANO]

Chop Chop and Augustus did better also

That tells you about the calibre of fighter that Hatton is.

In a rematch, Hatton gets KO'd inside of six. GUARANTEED.

I see Dios is at the wind up again.

i seem to think pbf said hatton was his toughest competitor or somehing to that effect in the merchant interview after the fight. not 100 pct, but i remember something along those lines!

Dude,


After the Gatti fight, The Floyd said Gatti was a "great, great champion". Take things into perspective. He was being conciliatory towards Hatton.

The Floyd has had much tougher fights. Much.

How so?? Because I said that hatton would get Ko'd in six?

Let me break in down for you:

Hatton can't take Floyd's punches. Floyd can take Hatton's punches (if such a thing ever had a chance of cleanly landing). Floyd can come in with a different plan. Hatton has no other plan/options. Floyd will still be faster, stronger, and more skilled. Floyd has Hatton figured out. He can just come out offensive and aggressive and land hard shots. Earlier.

I called the first fight exactly as it went. The rematch would be a terrible beating/blowout.

This is just nonsense. I can't be bothered dissecting it.

I can agree with that. Hatton did his best; he came in shape, came to fight, fought until the end, went out on his shield, and gave the fans their money's worth.

People can say what they want, have a little fun/a bit of teasing, but at the end of the day, Ricky is a fighter, a Champion, and that deserves some respect.
