Who is the better BOXER? Mayorga or Hatton.

Not who do you like better or who would win, but who has the better boxing ability? Who has more skill?

I choose option C

I choose option C

Ha ha. I should have put a third option. "They both can't box worth a ****"

Mayorga by far. Mayorga actually counters and looks for openings. hatton just jumps in swinging and then holds you.

lmao. That's probably the funniest way to state the truth.

[rizkybizness]

I go with Mayorga.

For explanation, please see Rogelio's post. Agree 1000%

Hatton.....

[x-PeROxiDE-x]

Well, neither of them are known for their silky boxing skills, but for making the best of what limited skillset they have, and being good at what they do, it's Hatton.

BTW, a lot of Americans won't know this, but Hatton DID have considerable boxing skill as an amatuer and his early days as a pro, but he discovered he could steamroll his opponents through strength and an iron will, and adopted it as his new fighting style. Now though, he is so far gone from his old self, his skills have all but been forgotten.

There are glimpses though, like the perfectly timed and astonishingly accurate jab he nearly floored Mayweather with. Before anyone turns round and says "but PBF was just off balance LOL", ask yourself a few questions: How many jabs does Hatton usually throw? Is it not a coincidence that his most underused punch landed at such a perfect time...

Dumb ****in question. Mayo has no real skills at all.

[~Lucky13~]

I wouldn't even call Mayorga a boxer so the question is pretty worthless.

Floyd got nearly knocked out to ***** town by Hatton and Floyd beat ODLH and ODLH made Mayorga his ***** so Mayorga is NOTHING but a *****!
