Brian Kenny: On Mayweather ducking Hatton/ Baldomir back then.

[DuttyAlacrity]

Does PBF want his critics to give him a break? Does PBF want his legacy to be good? If the answers are yes, he should have fought Hatton at 140! It dont matter how many times Hatton supposedly turned PBF down. PBF beating hatton at 140 is a greater achievement than at 147. Hatton always seemed dominant at 140. As soon as he stepped up he encountered problems.

This is a terrible post...
Floyd wanted the fight at 140, Camp Hatton didn't. Floyd mnoved up became WW champ and Hatton wanted the WW crown so he moved up to fight floyd... the rest is history.
BTW on fight night Hatton outweighed floyd

[COACH WEBB]

But hatton had beaten everyone at 140 did he not for years and years? PBF jumps straight to Baldomir and becomes a great man at that weight 147 somehow without fighting Cotto, SSM and Marge.

lol...

in order to be the MAN you have to beat the MAN.

Hatton beat the MAN at 140, so he became the man

Floyd beat the MAN at 147, so he became the man

But since you are advocating Hatton and Floyd at 140, how could Hatton, NOT be ready for Floyd when he, "beaten everyone at 140 did he not for years and years" and he beat the MAN at 140???? That does not make any sense does it?

Pac beats Hatton at 140, and then PBF fans say PBF beat hatton first, as if that is relevant.
Well PBF beat Hatton at 147 with home advantage. Didnt really challenge himself. Gave him the best opportunity to keep his zero, so why shouldnt he beat Hatton first?

But beating someone first is hardly relevant is it? Otherwise you would have to scrutinise everyone in histories resume.

Hatton was damaged goods after his fight with Floyd. All those straight rights he was eating couldn't of done him any good. He also was abusing his body in between fights blowing up to 190 lbs etc, that abuse takes it toll on your body. Floyd and Pac have different styles, so it make no sense to compare common opponents.
My question is, do you know anything about Floyds career?

ALl im saying is PBFs resume would look better if he beat Hatton at 140 like Pac did.

140 was Hattons best weight. Pac beat hatton in 2 rounds at 140. Can you imagine how fast pac would beat him at 147. One round for hatton if he was lucky.

Mayweather never has a valid reason apart from money, The guy cant construct a live conversation without mentioning money. The thing i hate about this interview is Brian Kinney was pushing Hatton and loving hatton at the time even though Hatton himself said he wasnt ready for a Mayweather fight yet.

He tried to make Hatton look like King kong...all i hear is how retentless hatton is, How he fight for every second of every round..How he would cut off the ring, How he has better footwork than Mayweather.. blah blah blah

But i do understand why Kinney wanted Mayweather to fight Baldomir though, After beating Judah and Gatti people got on the bandwagon about how big Baldomir was etc

People alway let hate cloud their judgement sometimes which is sad..

I agree...Hatton's dad said they weren't ready

Dude, have you read any of the responses to your earlier posts? Just let it go, Hatton outweighed Floyd come fight night. It was healthier for Hatton to fight at ww than lww.

[Cash Cow]

yea judah and gatti are some great welterweights. why didn't baldomir fight margarito who was number 1 at welterweight for 5 years. oh yea he didn't want to lose he just wanted to tread water until he cashed in vs mayweather.

Margarito was #1 @ WW?....lol

Hatton spent his entire career @140lbs....and he has to cut weight to get there......him fighting at WW wasnt a problem for him

Thats just an excuse these Fan Girls believe

[Easy-E]

I know this is old

THIS was the reality before those fights. Now, since Floyd made easy work of both, its easy to say those wins mean nothing and those fighters suck. Back then they were the biggest challenges to his crown.
People forget because they want to forget without giving Floyd credit for making fights with the biggest contenders.
