Where Does This Myth That Hatton Is a Hard Hitter Come From???

Who said he was a hard hitter? He's physically stronger than Pac, but I think at 140 Pac has more punchin power.

The man was fighting a featherfisted, Paulie Malignaggi who was only fighting with 1 arm after the 3rd round and Hatton couldnt ever knock him down.

Jose Luis Castillo was his only knockout in 4 years and he was just as much of a zombie coming into the fight as delahoya was against pacquiao.

The man couldnt knockout Lascano, Collazo, or Urango. 2 of the 3 are walking punching bags.

So i'd like to know where this myth comes from

Probably that one shot he landed on Castillo.

It was obviously that one shot he landed on Castillo.

He was known as the best body puncher in the sport for a while, just because of that punch.

And that ****ing ridiculous rumor about him breaking 4 of Castillo's ribs...

it comes from his previous fights, when he was fighting at domestic level and when he was fighting guys that were either **** or shot, look at this fights as the opposition got better, he couldnt put them away

From his 32-33 KO's out of 46 pro fights.

Who said it was a rumour? it was widely reported in the press after the fight and has never been denied by any reputable source.

Hatton has decent LWW power, i'll take that over Pac's decent Featherweight power.

So you'll take that kinda power who couldnt put away a Juan Lazcano who hadnt fought in a year and a half and was a punching bag over the kind of power that knocked out David Diaz whose only previous loss was to Kendall freakin Holt who was the wbc LWW beltholder until just recently??

I'm pretty sure we put that rumor down back when it happened, in the lead up to the Mayweather-Hatton fight.

I found a lot of **** that said that Ricky said he broke 4 of Castillo's ribs... there wasn't a whole lot other than that.
