The one reason Hatton lost to both Floyd and Pacquiao.........

[Dragon Punch]

Paulie gave Cotto alot of trouble. Also Paulie is known to have a great chin.

I dont give a damn about Cotto.
In anycase I was talking about the Paulie who turned up for the Hatton fight, and was just pointing out to the original poster that if the Prime Ricky fought that version he would have wrecked him.

[mtgawafan]

He underestimated the power of both fighters.


And they say a fool always makes the same mistake twice....!

Because Manny was too strong, and Mayweather was willing to cheat even more than him.

I applaud Mayweather for elbowing the rabbit puncher to death.

yes but it would have been 4 rounds or 5 come the end of the 12 if he wasn't counting the KO round,once Mayweather got into his rhythm they were a class apart.

personally i'd say ODLH gave mayweather his toughest fight.

castillo gave floyd his toughest fight---that's it...and harold was smoking to have hatton down by 2 points---add to this floyd was dancing with the stars while training--on iron fist--and he still dominated and knocked out hatton---and this is a hatton who didn't want to fight floyd at 140---hatton's best weight and his prime weigt---i mean wasn't hatton at the gatti figh---he was as well as cotto---and they witnessed a beating of a lifetime and neither one of them wanted any parts of floyd---hatton even came out and admitted this as well as his father---aty 140---really--nobody wanted a part of floyd---maybe except gatti and we all know what happened there---hatton was the ring magazine championof th jr. welterweight division and he just beat kosta a month before the gatti fight with floyd and he knew not to fight floyd----floyd called him out so many times and even said he would go to england to fight him---hatton wasn't ready yet---and from the look of things---neither was wrigt, mosley, de la hoya, kosta, and cotto----imo floyd was at his most dangerous at 140---but he moved up for bigger and better things---hatton lost to pac and floyd because he wasn't good enough to beat them---that's all....

They both better than him.

I do agree with it.. The two were way better than him thats why he was KOed in both fight.

[Dorian]

Styles make fights.

Manny and Floyd would beat him 10 out of 10 times.

DLH didnt give floyd his hardest fight.

Floyd just exercised prolly the most caution we have seen b/che knows he was fighting a much bigger man and big puncher...plus that was a healthy DLH unlike the unhealthy DLH Pac fought

but anyone who knows boxing saw that fight wasnt close.

DLH's jab was effective FOR A LITTLE, before Floyd took it away from him

DLH was effective the whole fight, excpet for the few times be pumped the jab until floyd adjusted

red K served for a dumb post. floyd fought hatton with hattons own brawler style and was much better at it than hatton.

alot of people didnt expect floyd could/would brawl

[GreatRubdini]

Listen mofo's before you jump on this ****;

Prime Hatton would have beaten the hell out of Pac at 140lb.
The guy who Pac sparked out wasnt half the man that he once was: the chin, his strength, his conditoning, his reflexes, punsh power/variety all has deteriorated.

As for PBF - He's straight up just the better man, but a prime Hatton would not have been stopped. Even though he still gave Mayweather his toughest fight...even Harold Leaderman only had Ricky down by two rounds at the time of the stoppage.

Prime Hatton?? AHAHAHA! So Hatton wasnt his prime when he fought Pacquiao? cmon he's 30 years old and only lost 2 fight.....thats just an excuse to hide that he was overrated Bum.....and he didnt gave Gayweather his "toughest fight" maybe a fight he's not use to fighting..... Why is it when he goes up against someone with superior skills than him he starts fighting dirty? The reason why is because he doesnt have the ability to beat them so he changes his game plan and starts holding and hitting and landing illegal blows..When Hatton fights bums he shows his best performance but when he fought two A-level fighters he just gets exposed

far from prime. why do you think that people said he should retire soon as he lost to Floyd?

the hatton pac fought wasnt close to the prime of the hatton May fought...FLoyd beat the prime out of hatton

end of story

[skullduggery]

aww their they are,not as many as i expected i must say

because hatton was an overrated, under talented hype job with a padded record and a glass jaw......

and they were both better than him.....
