    The Myth of the 140 version of Hatton post-Floyd

    Floyd knocked out an undefeated Ricky Hatton at 147 but I have been seeing a lot of people discrediting this win by saying Manny's win was more impressive because that was at Ricky's more natural weight at 140. Let's not forget the shenanigans that Ricky pulled against Lazcano after his loss to "Money May!" Let me refresh your memories. Check from the 5:10 mark.



    Hatton was a different fighter after he got knocked out by Floyd period and Manny finished him. But let's stop this nonsense about the dominant 140 pounder Ricky was at the time of the Pacman fight.

    Hatton beat Paulie M, who was a good 140 fighter.

        Paulie can't punch! Lazcano had him hurt real bad, the ref jumped in, then Ricky complained about his shoes being untied

          Man there sure are a lot of myths out there today. You should change your name to myth busters.
          Myth:3. any invented story, idea, or concept: His account of the event is pure myth.

            Barracuda, Pac's knockout over Hatton was far more impressive cause Floyd struggled with Hatton. He used his mind to win that fight. I'm talking about fans discrediting Floyd's win

              While the point is valid, Collazo also had him nearly out of there and that was before the Floyd bout.

                2npac, lol. This was my last myth. I'm new to the site and those things were on my mind. I personally love Pac and Floyd. I just like Floyd more. I respect all fighters.

                  Ben London,

                  Yeah Collazo had that fight for the taking and he took he couldnt finished it off just like against Berto.

                  My point is just that knocking out an undefeated fighter who was a champion with the heart of Hatton should never be diminished!

                    Floyd's 'win' was b/s

                    a) because it was at 147 where Hatton struggles
                    b) because Cortez was a fcuking joke
