It is amazing how you see a fighter age in one night.

hatton is a bum, when he fights paulie and losses i want to see if these hatton fanatics will still praise his bum ass.bunch of ******s

hatton is past his best, he didnt do enough at his peak though IMO....he beat a old and shot tszyu (with the help of low blows and hugging and hitting, using forearms, elbows etc...) , he beat a very shot castillo, and a couple others before he faced mayweather, he wasnt active enough ..........he should've taken on cotto when he was at lww.......and he should've fought maliggnaggi a while ago when he could beat him, now malignaggi will just box circles around him........pretty sad

i believe the problem is hattons ballooning up between fights and then just rapidly cutting the weight off......saps his stamina and ages his body prematurely, its the reason why he hasnt looked so flash in recent outings....

consider this:

mayweather, (now fighting at welterweight but probably a natural light welter nowadays ) walks around at 158-160 lbs

hatton walks around at about 170-180 lbs (as high as 188)........

who do you think is the more professional fighter, and who will have more longevity in the fight game and better overall health??

i dont think he is shot, but he is on the down side of his career. he already peaked imo. he was punching hard...i dont doubt that, but in overall he was a little slower, a little more tire than he should be and most importan, he ate a lot of punches...too much imo. a rematch with mayweather would turn out to be a mayweather taking hatton to boxing school. i dont think lazcano is a bad fighter, but he shouldnt have given that many problems to hatton.

i wouldn't say hatton is shot but but i do think coming down in weight 50 lbs before every fight will hurt him more and more as he gets older. a 25 year old can do that but not after 30. james toney had to lose as much as 70 lbs before some fights and it's certainly aged him, u can't keep abusing ur body and expect to have a long career

its not that Hatton is shot... more like he's been exposed by Floyd where other boxers can now take notes of his flaws/weaknesses...although he decisively beat Lazcano, I did see Hatton catch a few check hooks in the fight...or shots while lunging in...
