Floyd's punch was harder and at just as good of an angle.

There are a few things to consider:

1)Floyd is bigger.
2)Floyd punches sharper and faster.
3)Hatton had a proven chin and we don't know allot about Bradly's.

The Holt hook was picture perfect but it didn't effectively lead to the ending of the fight while Floyd's did.

You have to give this close battle to '$Money May$'.

Mayweather is known to have glassy hands, I bet you his hands were broken after he ktfo out of Hatton. He probably retired because of his hand problems and took off from this sport a bit. Holts punch was beautiful, most 140 pounders would have not gotten up from that but Bradley is not most 140 pounders. I think Hatton and Malignaggi probably both would have been ko'd by a punch like that if it had landed on either of them.

I've never seen hatton hit by a puncher like that because he really hasn't fought too many hard-punchers in his career. And Holt doesn't just punch hard he is slick and punches hard. Theres no question that I think Holt could have landed that punch on Hatton.

Lol at that bolded part......hahahaha!

This poll is about a punch exactly like that on Hatton! Hahahaha!

Let me refresh you a little.

Look at the KO ratio's of these fighters. Kostya Tszyu, Carlos Maussa, Juan Urango, Jose Luis Castillo, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Lazcano.

That's 6 out of Hattons last 7 opponents.

Now go look at Holt's KO %. http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php...1405&cat=boxer

I hope that crapped all over your comment enough for you not to respond to this because there's not much to say now.

The punch that Holt landed was not a check hook. It was just a hook.

i agree, holt's hook was not a check hook.

Holt's has more power but Floyd's is better overall.

Floyd would beat Holt, but Holt would give him a pretty competitive fight. Besides Bradley and Paul Williams, no other boxer would do as well against Floyd as Holt would.

I assume you are joking.

If not, did you see how Holt was retreating from the bodywork that Bradley was putting in? What happens when Floyd starts digging left hooks to Kendall? And following that with fast, accurate work upstairs?

What happens when Floyd steps inside Holt's power shots and breaks Kendall down (a la Zab Judah) methodically with hooks, counter rights, and short uppercuts?

Are you telling me that you can't see this in your mind's eye?

someone just said kendall holt can beat floyd????lmfao

basically, the holt punch was first round. the mayweather punch was in the 10th.

hatton was mentally and physically tired by that time while bradley could just shake it off, hatton was worn down before that punch.
