Why isnt Hatton comftrable at WW?

[Johnny Rebel]

Hatton won a title at WW against Collazo which is damn good. Hatton is small at 140 and extremely small at 147. Ricky could fight at 130 if he had better eating and drinking habits and wanted to fight there.

Collazo was not "robbed" against Hatton. Ricky won between 6-8 rounds and scored a knockdown giving him the win. Collazo had 2 really dominant rounds in the fight and did better than anticipated (since Luis Collazo was really unknown and underrated at that time) which is why people say/think he won, not including the haters, they just say that to hate/troll... If a boxing match was scored on who did more damage to who, then Collazo would have a case that he won because he did land the better shots, but since a fight is scored by rounds and knockdowns Ricky clearly won. A fight that close can never be a "robbery" anyway. There would be more people claiming a "robbery" had Collazo got the nod in his hometown...

Hatton has midget arms as it is. I dont think he matches well with the welterweights.

Why people use that as a excuse. I mean, if he comes at fight night like at 155-157, whats the difference him weighitning in at 145-147 and still come at 155-157 fight night? I dont see the difference. Matters of facts for the looks of it, he is draining himself to make 140.

So why is all of this BS, of Hatton not being a WW, or he is not the same? I think thats bull ****, he met 2 fighters better than him st WW thats all!!!!!!!!

Better fighters at 147.

Hatton cant fight at 147, because he is not good enough. Not because he is not big enough.

He has his best ADVANTAGE at 140. He isnt Floyd where he is versatile enough to get away with his style and stature at 147 against the better fighters.

Hatton is actually a good welterweight. He's 1-1 as a welterweight, one loss being to the pound for pound king Mayweather who matches up physically well against Hatton. Ppl forget Hatton was having a pretty good showing against him until he got frustrated with the officiating and blew his cool. That may of been the first and only time i've ever seen Mayweather off balance.

He did enough to beat collazo. At minimum Hatton won 6 of those rounds. I gave him 7 along with the knockdown on my card i had it 115-112. Collazo is extremely underrated and when healthy would give any welterweight problems.

because he has minimal skill (if any) and relies ENTIRELY on bullying his opponent via illegal rough housing tactics to win fights. this just isnt possible at WW, which is why he sucks even more at WW.

this should sum things up.

This does sum it up. He can't bully true WW's, like he does with 140 fighters.

Hatton cant fight at 147, because he is not good enough. Not because he is not big enough.

cotto weighs like 160lbs on fight night yet I don't see any threads critisizing him for not fighting at middleweight, sounds like double standards to me.

T-rex arms

[rizkybizness]

It sums thing's up for fools like you who either lack boxing knowledge or is just a blind hater. If minimal skills get you to 46-1 - the loss being against the best in the business then most fighters would take that in a heartbeat. Can you explain what ilegal tactics he used in his last fight for example?

i lack boxing knowledge because i see that hatton wins fights via illegal rough housing tactics??????????????

THATS THE PLAIN TRUTH, there is NO way to possibly sugar coat that.

how did he get to 46-1? BY ILLEGAL, ROUGH HOUSING TACTICS and NOT on boxing "skill". my little sister could counter punch hatton as he jumps in, 20 feet away swinging his left arm into a "hook" while keeping his right hand at his waist. he can bully her but thats the only way i have hatton beating her
