if you take away the 'hug-man' in hatton...

[nujabes77]

would he still have won his fights againts tsuyu, castillo and the rest? or put up a fight againts mayweather?

[MANGLER]

It's a part of his style. If he didn't do that he'd be a different fighter altogether.

[MR ITALIAN]

this is going to be an epic fight, believe it

[Naps]

There was loads of hugging involved in the PBF fight wasn't there.... (cos Cortez allowed too much of it right...?)

And against Tzyu there were almost no punches thrown. Ricky is a right bum.

[nujabes77]

was just wondering if ricky has got what it takes to beat good fighters without clinching...

[$partacus]

Hatton didn't used to hold, and he didn't hold in the Malignaggi fight. If it's so easy to fight like Hatton and you don't need any skill wouldn't a lot more fighters be using the same tactics and be getting the same success as Hatton?

If you take away the 'nut-hug' from pacman777, we would have a good, fair, unbiased poster who isn't critical on all of Pacquiao's next opponents...

Haha, just messing...

It is going to be an excellent fight that I am REALLY looking forward too, as for the clinching... I think it should be okay to be allowed to an extent. Obviously is shouldn't be allowed to clinch throughout the hole rounds, but a bit of clinching should be allowed because it is his style to get on the inside and fight, if you see Hatton moving in to clinch and then fight out of the clinch on the inside for some inside fighting then I can't see how there would be a problem with that.

At the moment I am tipping Pacquiao to win, but not ruling Hatton out.

If you take away all the slow, stand-off opponents, who let Pacquiao do his in/out style, and the anorexic dehydrated old men, from Pacquiao - would he have won any fights??
