Hatton appreciation

[Freddy Krueger]

Paulie has one of those ugly haircuts Chad Dawson recently had against Johnson. I don't know why ppl think styles cuts in your hair is cool or something I think it makes them look ******ed.

Hatton fought well, but it was more of a case of Paulie looking just awful.

It was a very good performance by Hatton, but against Pac there was just no way he could hold it all together, in hindsight he had no chance.

He fought very dumb against Pacquiao, kind of had his hands a bit too low at times against puncher. He didn't show Pacquiaos power any respect and got KO'd early because of it. I picked Pacquiao to beat both Hatton and Oscar(at the time I was really paranoid about my pick tho).

Off topic, I didn't really choose a winner for Pacquiao/Cotto... My mind won't let me.

I actually agree he didn't show or think Pac could hurt him from what i saw and basically tried to bumrush him at the start. Floyd SR is a joke but i think if Hatton had listened to him/Floyd sr not been suck a ****, that Pac/Hatton would have been a very decent fight.

I know Cotto more then Hatton since I'm a pac and cotto fan. And I know Cotto already respects Pacquiao as a fighter and will see a very defensive version of Cotto because I believe he respects Pacquiaos power. Pretty sure Cotto isn't ****** to buy into this **** like Pacquiao isn't a natural Welter-Weight crap.

I give Ricky a B- for the fight. It was a good win for him and temporarily vindicated his choice of Mayweather as his trainer. Hatton did a lot of things right in the fight but unfortunately reverted to a lot his bad habits when he realized Paulie couldn't punch worth a crap. This was Hatton's first fight since changing trainers and he was determined to show that he was a new and improved Ricky 2.0. Both Hatton and Mayweather went out of their way to show how well they were getting along together and Floyd complimented Hatton on his willingness to fully embrace his coaching methods and strategies. Unfortunately, things went south with the next fight. Reports of discontent with Hatton being upset that Floyd was tardy to practice and reports of Floyd unhappy with Ricky and Lee Beard holding secret training sessions at night. I really think that had the camp leading up to the Pacquiao fight gone as well as the Malinaggi fight camp, we would've seen a much better prepared Ricky Hatton.

I voted F.

Yeah that was Hattons main problem (of many), I think he thought he could walk through a lot of Pac's shots, by the time he realised he couldnt he had already had his bell rung and was on the way

not to jump on the bandwagon but yeah this was in no way a good performance and actually one of the worst performances of the year. Hatton's game plan was wrong from the opening bell and he made it worse by trying to ramp up the pressure while running in with his hands down lol
