Hatton: "I Want De La Hoya or Pacquiao, Then Retire"

[ALT-Assassin]

he is more elusive than Hatton but Hatton doesn't need to be elusive, he can take punishment (and he wouldn't have needed to be v Mayweather if Cortez wouldn't keep splitting them up meaning Mayweather got to hit him on the re-engage)

Hatton was gonna roughhouse Floyd and beat him up, Cortez wouldn't let him then Cortez tries to let Hopkins roughhouse Calzaghe and lets Mayweather roughhouse Hatton in the later rounds because Hatton absorbed so many punches he couldn't win the close quarter stuff any more

where is the consistency?

I'll tell you where, Cortez is biased against the British fighter, his fame is in America

Cortez hates Hopkins.Bernard didn't even want him to ref the fight it was Joe who wanted him,so there goes your argument

watch the fight, he lets Hopkins hold all night and even ignores a headbutt

there goes ur bull****

There's a happy medium, Cortez allowed the close stuff in the later rounds when Hatton was burned out, he's ****** he reffed it in Mayweather's favour




He couldn't beat DLH but he could beat Floyd for sure

You have to be the slowest most mentally handicaped individiual since Radio if you believe Mayweather would ever lose to Hatton.The gulf in class is to much for his hit and hold style.

we all know what would happen if PBF and Hatton would fight again...

and it's not gonna be pretty for Hatton...

Hatton is clearly not on PBf's level... you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out...

If you got a ref that let them actually fight and stop reffing one fighter whilst ignoring the other fighter Hatton would win.

You're a fool if you didn't see Mayweather ducking down, throwing elbows and the ref splitting them up every 2 seconds in the first 5 rounds for nothing

don't ignore reality.

you might not like Hatton's hit hold style (even tho Floyd did most of the holding), but there's nothing Floyd could do to stop it if it wasn't for the ref stepping in


floyd had all the advantages:

he wouldn't drop to a catch-weight
he wouldn't fight anywhere but his hometown
he had the ring made bigger so he could run away
he got away with holding, throwing elbows and ducking down
and he had the ref in his pocket even penalising Hatton for punching a rope


If Cortez split them up even half as much as he did in those first 5 rounds, it would've been Hatton in the ascendancy, but Cortez set him up (hatton didnt help by rushing in, but the fact is, Cortez shouldn't have been splitting them every 2 seconds)

I agree.....

Did you not witness Mayweather timing Hatton for the check left hook that sent his head into the turnbuckle? Lazcano a B- fighter landed a similar one against Hatton and put him on ***** street.What makes you think Mayweather can't repeat that in a rematch? If Lazcano can do it Mayweather can do it blind folded.

I think Hatton is in a bad spot right now. At 140. Pac? Could be a hell of a fight.
DLH? On the team? Frankly, I think DLH would beat Hatton easily.
Who's at 140? Witter? Had the chance to make it. Bradley? Sorry, I don't think ANYBODY wants to mess with that right now.
He needs to get his head on straight with the Paulie fight.
Mayweather? Just let sleeping dogs sleep.
The winner of Marg vs. Cotto aren't going to be losing sleep over this.
Berto, the winner of Judah vs Clottey...
140 is not the name to be, right now. 135 and 147. Pretty tough fields to be in....
