    We put it into the "no excuses thread", meaning that we as posters expected a heavy dose of forearms/elbows. Hatton was talking about Floyd as if he was some ***** fighter, and I have seen a rough/dirty inside fighter his whole career.
    maffacker, i NEVER once said that Hatton lost because of Floyd's dirty tactics so you need to fall back with that ****. I knew what to expect from Floyd and Im sure Hatton and Graham knew to. All I'm saying is that I can understand their frustration with Cortez regarding not allowing Hatton fight his "dirty fight" but allowing Floyd to do so. Thats all.

        2501,

        You are getting very defensive and emotional when the point was CLEARLY not directed towards you. Your estrogen levels are spiking for no reason.

        Go read the post. It said that HATTON said that he was surprised by the forearms and elbows. That is one of the first things that HATTON said in the Merchant interview and also at the post-fight presser.

        But if you insist on taking the comment personally, please do so. What can you do about it other than be mad?

          I don't agree that Floyd's straight right looks like B-Hop's.

          Hopkins throws his straight right with his hands up, after pawing a few jabs and catching some punches on his glove. Floyd moved backwards with his hands basically in his lap, to lure Hatton in. Hopkins didn't do that. He doesn't have the speed.

            After watching again, I thought Floyd could have made it more onesided if he wanted to. Mayweather just doesnt take as many chances at this weight, but he should have this fight because he was physically bigger and stronger than Hatton.

            When Floyd opened up it was ugly. Instead he was trying to time counters which worked out in the long run.

              I feel the same way. He took a while just potshotting before realizing that he could have his way with Ricky.

                1. The fight was a damp squid after the way the fight had been hyped up before hand.

                2. Mayweather outclassed him for pretty much the whole of the fight.

                3. Hatton made himself look like a bit of an idiot in the post fight interviews where as PBF came out of the fight smelling of roses.

                The End

                  Because some people find it hard to separate their emotions from their logic. That is why I say that many posters are like women. That is what females do.

                  Instead of saying that "Floyd is a **** and a braggart, but he is a great fighter. Ricky seems down-to-earth, but he is VERY limited. Floyd will dominate him", they say "Floyd is a **** and Ricky will knock him out".

                  I ccouldn't stand SRL (still can't). But I knew what I was looking at in the ring.

                    i said Floyd would UD or TKO Hatton late, based on the fact that HATTON well, isnt as good as any of the top welters whom FMJ refuses to fight.

                      You suck as a poster and are a horrible addition to this website.

                      Did I say that already?
