Floyd deserves a lot of credit for the Hatton win

Pac demolished Hatton in far more impressive fashion. It was the same old Hatton in this fight as in the Pac fight - only difference is:
Pac's power >>>> Mayweather's power.

I give Floyd little credit for that win, if he won at 140lbs with a fair ref then he'd deserve all the credit but he wouldn't win.

Originally posted by .Buddha. View PostWhen Hatton fights at lww he rehydrates up to 154, when he fought Floyd he rehydrated back up to 154. Floyd rehydrated up to 154 as well, so come fight night they were the same size so it didnt matter if the fight was at lww or ww. Hatton clinches as a form of strategy, which is an illegal tactic and Cortez had every right to stop him from doing it. Im not a fan of Cortez by the way I think he completely disgraced himself in the Hopkins Calzaghe fight. I cannot see how the fight really would of gone any different to the way it did.

For the record I dont give Floyd much credit for this win, because Hatton simply cant box.

i give floyd full credit. but you're just hatin if you say pac's KO mean little because floyd did it too.
After Floyd KO'd Hatton, Hatton looked bad vs. a washed up Lazcano and beat the feather fisted Paulie Malignaggi. Then he got wasted in 2 rounds by Pac. It can definitely be argued that Hatton got old overnight. Combine that with his constant weight loss to make weight and it isn't surprising to see a 30 yr. old lose it after a bad KO loss.
