He lost the fight but...

[The Hammer]

floyd just hit him right on the button.

Hatton was knocked out by the corner post - it had less to do with Mayweather's punches, although Floyd's last punch finished him off.

[hammerhiem]

That he was fighting an old Tszyu who hadn't fought in a long time.

I hear this all the time and IT IS NOT TRUE.

Tszyu fought 6 months before and KO'd a TOP 5 LWW.

Get you facts straight.

true, but basically floyd hit him right on the button

Hatton's defence suspect? Maybe. Hatton's chin suspect? fúck off. He walks through shots time and time again, and has been down just 4 times in his career (two of those in his only ever defeat). Hatton may get dazed every now and then but considering the amount of shots he takes it's no surprise really but it doesn't mean he has a bad chin, he blocks with his head. Now compare another fighter who has a so called "granite" chin and lets see if they can take as many shots as Hatton does without being knocked down. Hatton has one of the best chins in boxing. Hatton's KO at the hands of Floyd was more down to fatigue than physical injury inflicted by Floyd.

What were the four times ? I can only think of 3. Mcgee once and Mayweather twice who am I missing? Just curious.

[Mrvooh]

hatton looked off balance to me.

Paulie rarely, and ineffectively threw his right...was it hurt again?

It might in fact only be three, I thought I recalled him being knocked down twice before the Floyd fight, maybe I'm mistaken. Still that's even better then and debunks the hater's claims further!

actually i thought paulie was throwing the right upper cut alot. i don't think his hands were hurt

[Hattie_Carroll]

also lets not forget That he was fighting an old Tszyu who hadn't fought in a long time.

Power is the last thing to go, remember that.

As for who has the better chin? that's purely subjective and one we can only give a valid opinion on after having watched both fighters' careers.

I'd lean towards Hatton because of the fact that he eats a ton of punches and has only been stopped once.

Both have very good chins IMO.
