Thread starter is a silly troll. This is at least the third thread about Hatton with exactly the same subject and I think even the same video clip. And it's the same in the build up to every single Hatton fight.
Hatton has a shaky chin? OK. Give my regards to your crack dealer once you are withdrawing enough to suck him off in return for some more.
You haven't seen his first fight. I have. He didn't hold once.
Yes that round was diabolical. No it was not indicative of Hatton's performance, even in that one fight, let alone at championship level.
Hatton boxed circles around Urango for four straight rounds and barely shipped a punch. In the fifth he got caught with a HUGE body shot which lost him the round. In the sixth he dominated again. In the seventh he started to slow as a result of the chest infection, it was plain to see that something was taken out of him, that he wasn't himself. He started to hold more frequently but still boxed quite smartly until the tenth round which is when the holding became excessive. He was instructed by his corner to hold because of the upcoming fight with Castillo, there was no sense in jeopardizing that fight by taking risks simply to please some idiots on the internet who would criticize him for it three years later.
Incidentally Hatton won that fight 11 rounds to 1 with all 3 judges giving Urango the 5th and giving Hatton every other round.
KLITSHKO and HATTON both have VERY SHAKEY CHINS and thats why they hold
HATTON because of his hit and hol;d style usually doesn't take many punches clean to show his PATHETIC punch resistance,he will come MAY 5TH!!!!

HATTON holds even if he's a 20 to 1 favorite and has been doing so since his FIRST FIGHT
Whoopee, I'm a cronie.
Be real. The round was diabolical and telling of the state of Hatton's craft since stepping up to this championship level of competition

For the 1st 5/6 rounds of the Uragno fight, Ricky boxed and moved extremley nicely (go and watch it for yourselves). Either the 5th or Sixth he got nailed with a big body shot that took alot out of him. He was already feelling the efffects of a bad cold/chest infection which he picked up from the air conditioning unit in his hotel so his reserves were already low. I'm not condoning it - from the sixth round the fight was awful - but he did what he had to do to get through the fight. Ask any of the elites they would do the same - unless there a brainless pug like Gatti or Ward.
