    Hatton can still punch, but he can't take a punch anymore, which is why Freddie Roach said "Mayweather took something out of him which is why he was on shaky legs against Lazcano". Anyone with decent reading comprehension would come to the conclusion that the "something" he was referring to was obviously his punch resistance, since he was on "shaky legs" as a result of that "something" being gone after his loss to Mayweather.

    A fighter with Hatton's style, one who takes a punch to give a punch, with no punch resistance is reduced to a C grade fighter, a train wreck waiting to happen as soon as the first flush punch lands, which is why Roach said the fight should end very early.


    It was proven in Hatton's fight after Floyd, when he was almost KO'd and hurt by the non-elite Lazcano two times in the fight. The BBC and SkySports said that Hatton showed significant signs of being past prime. The only reason why some people thought he was somehow rejuvenated was because of his performance against Paulie, a fighter with zero power, which is why he wasn't able to expose the deterioration of Hatton's punch resistance the way Lazcano and Pacquiao did.


    Don't confuse facts with your fiction!
    honestly, I thought hatton peaked against tszyu

          Me too!

          Mayweather took anything he had left to win a fight. His chin! A slight decline started after Kostya, but he had nothing left after his loss to Mayweather.


          Pacquiao got the weakest version of Hatton by far, and without a chin!

            lets switch the scenario. lets say hatton KD pacquiao 2 times in round 1 and KO pacquiao in round 2. what will you say to pacquiao and hatton?

              I think it probably has something to do with confidence as well same deal with Taylor. After they suffer their first ko loss, it is always there in the back of their minds; you get tagged by a big punch down the rd and all those thoughts of the ko come flooding back and you become vulnerable both mentally and physically....like a panic attack

                  lol lol lol

                  i called the 4th! Couple things, Pacman whipping Hatton's ass in the first round was impressive! Hatton confirms he's a Golden Boy fluke (making money off his record and Oscar's promo) Couple more things, Gayweather took 3/4 of the fight to TKO Hatton (a less skilled Hatton!) Pacman matched Gayweathers damage with one round. And in 2 rounds proved He would KO Gayweather and NOT vice versa!

                    Perfect example of a floyd fluffer who is just dying deep down inside trying to explain how Pacquiao one upped his boxing god. He's trying to do mental gymnastics in his brain to come up w/ a reason that fits his argument no matter how wrong & twisted it seems.


                    U guys should watch the southpark episode "Fishsticks"

                    It perfectly explains fraud jr's & fraud jr. fans mentality.


                    Just look at his location & avatar. The guy has no credibility to be fair & balanced whatsoever.
