If you forgot what happen on that fight... Paulie hit a flash left hook on Hattons face i think Ricky was hurt at that time, i can't remember what round it is...
It is a truth universally acknowledged that there's only one Ricky Hatton. The real truth, in fact, is that Hatton is the next in line to Frank Bruno and Henry Cooper, the plucky everyman who wins the hearts of people well beyond the normal boxing public.
Hatton fights are, at least to British eyes, exciting. And he's got genuine wit: the public which lapped up Bruno's self-deprecating jollity and simple catchphrases are putty in the hands of Ricky Hatton, accomplished speaker and budding stand-up comedian. He's a one-man variety show and he epitomises so many of the characteristics which the nation holds dear. The world wants to buy him a pint (and most of them have) and the world, more importantly, will pay to watch him box.

You sir are quite mad...
If thats hurt then hatton and every other fighter in history has been hurt in every fight ever.
The punch you are refering to is at 2:10 and is the only decent punch malinaggi landed all fight, if you think that punch with that reaction is "hurt" you need to stop watching pro boxing and go back to rapsies in the playground.

Why should i be mad?
So you agree he got hurt at that punch and on that fight... Better stick on football, Boxing is not your sport...
1. You are forgetting who Pacquiao was supposed to be going into the Diaz and DLH fight.
One dimensional. Only weapon being the left hand. Not ring smart. Those are phrases thrown around when describing Pac going into those fights. Sure, Diaz was a complete push over for Pac, but at the same time, he dominated Diaz in a manner that WAS NOT expected. He bobbed, he weaved, he picked his spots and dominated with combination punching. For someone being "one dimensional", he sure utilized BOTH hands AND improved his defense. I mean, seriously, who thought Manny would be UNTOUCHED as he was through out the whole fight?
The same **** applies to DLH. It doesnt matter if he was supposedly weight drained or whatever. Manny's skillset was supposed to allow DLH to go to work, not his physical ability. Manny OUTBOXED DLH. Normally, when someone is "weight drained", they don't get outboxed, they get physically dominated. Manny did physically dominate DLH, but by BOXING from the outside. That wasn't supposed to happen.
2. Manny keeps improving each fight for a "one dimensional" fighter where as Hatton hasn't shown much improvement at all
Mayweather exposed one of Hatton's major defensive Flaws. He's prone to quick shots, especially quick lefts. After he got knocked out by Mayweather, he fought an old, washed up, RETIRED Lascano. Lascano tagged his ass with a left many times and was on the verge of a KO if only Lascano was capable of finishing the job.
What did this show?
That Hatton truly hasn't improved on his defense. Manny was supposed to do to Juan Lascano what Pacquiao did to Diaz and DLH. He didn't. He almost got KO'd. Moving on to the Malignaggi fight, Hatton did show some OFFENSIVE improvement, but where was the DEFENSIVE improvement? If you watch the fight, Paulie landed lefts when Hatton would come in for the attack, but we're talking Eggshell hands Malignaggi over here. Hatton wasn't about to be hurt by the lack of power Malignaggi contained.
Pacquiao is faster than Malignaggi, more powerful than Malignaggi.
Hatton does his best work on the inside. When have we EVER seen Pacquiao allow ANYONE to work inside? Do we really think Pacquiao will be stationary through out the fight inviting Hatton to his body?
Lets seriously think about it. Who's faster to the draw? What's REALLY gonna stop PAcquiao from attacking from the outside and moving out the way? Hatton's "jab"?
Or is it Hatton face?
From their recents previous fights, this is what can be seen:
Hatton has yet to improve on his defense though his offense has gotten a little tighter
Pacquioa has improved his versatility both offensively and defensive;y.
Just because Floyd chose Hatton doesn't mean Hatton is some beast that only Floyd can tame. Hatton is no JMM and Pacquiao is a whole different animal.
Is that really you 2501? I didn't expect that you'd write something like that, I thought you hate Pacman... but I guess you are just being objective. You really did your homework.
I was being generous today giving away green k's, I'll have to wait till tomorrow to be able to give karma. Great post.
Now, to all Hatt-huggers of Pac-haters out there.... look up the word "OBJECTIVE"
that word might help you guys to make more sense in your post.
I give much credit to Ricky Hatton, I respect the man, does not disrespect fellow fighters. I really thought that Hatton will be the favorite and I want Pacquiao to come in as the underdog here. Base your posts on facts...otherwise you yourselves would only humiliate Hatton more.
