Hatton's still better than Floyd

[Fox McCloud]

i know it seems biased to me being he is my fav fighter... i dont take the win away from tarver he absolutely desvered it... i also understand the no such thing as a lucky punch... but....

tarvers head was down and he was staring at the canvas when he landed the punch... he wasnt even looking... to me.. THAT IS.. a lucky punch

i got in on video... the top of tarvers head was pointed at roy he wasnt even looking

I do agree... his face wasn't in the general direction of RJJ.

Actually Floyd's plan was working and he set Hatton up for that shot for several rounds before it actually landed......Nice effort by Hatton though.

Well said, although Hatton seemed to be more successful then any other fighter in recent history against Mayweather(I have alot of respect for Hatton's performance), Mayweather knew what he was doing and never seemed to be at a lose.

that wasnt a lucky punch.

Just so everyone knows - I was kidding. I predicted Mayweather would win. Hatton actually did better than I thought he would and I only game him three rounds.

If mayweather and Hatton thought 10 times mayweather would win all 10 so no.

Hatton's really the p4p no 1. He was all over Floyd until Mayweather got lucky with that punch. Hatton's game plan was working perfectly, Mayweather's lucky he's such an explosive puncher.

This is why I love boxingscene. Not because of the infallible boxing knowledge of its posters and their deep insight/vast intellect, but because of amusing ass hats like this! It makes my day (at least on here) every time.

There is no such thing as a lucky punch. Just because your boy was on the receiving end doesn't change this. I am curious to know what you found lucky about that punch. I've only seen the fight once, but I remember it being a pretty deliberate shot by Tarver (as opposed to some involuntary muscle spasm). Roy no longer had the athleticism to make up for his attrocious defense so he got caught flush and hit the dirt. Nothing lucky about it.

That is the true definition of a lucky punch you really do need to rewatch the fight. First off Tarver wasn't even looking at what he was throwing at. Second Roy had his glove up to block the punch only thing was that where the punch landed Roy's glove wasn't protecting. So Roy saw and knew what punch was coming just bad placement of the glove to block the punch. We all know what happened after that.
