CompuBox Stats: Ricky Hatton Powers Past Malignaggi

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Paulie Malignaggi never seemed to recover from Ricky Hatton's right hand in second round of their junior welterweight bout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Hatton had a 99-25 edge in power shots landed into the eleventh before Buddy McGirt questionably stopped the fight. Can’t totally argue with McGirt’s stoppage, as Paulie, with five career KOs, was in full survival and well behind on points. [details]

Some might be pissed that Buddy threw in the towel. But Paulie was taking a beating. The body shots, and uppercuts Hatton was starting to land were starting to take a toll. He might have saved Paulie from a career ender tonight.

Agree, Paulie wasn't doing **** aside from taking a beating and holding.

People moan about the cotto fight, but in the cotto fight, there was a slight chance paulie might of won on points, this time round, hatton won just about every round. (maybe except the first)
