Floyd deserves a lot of credit for the Hatton win

[V.WEBB]

He gets decent credit, he showed why he is a great fighter and Hatton is a good one. Credit gets docked for it being at 147 where Hatton's style simply doesn't work for him, but Floyd did what he was supposed to.

Hatton wasn't and isn't a 147lb fighter, and Cortez made it even harder for him.

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.

Hatton only had one fight at 147 prior to fighting Mayweather and it was against Collazo, a fight many feel he lost.

So no, Floyd gets no credit for beating Hatton given the grand scheme of things.

Y'all kidding right? Don't forget that Floyd had JUST fought Oscar at 154, and he STILL was the champ at 147. Therefore, he was NOT about to go all the way BACK down to 140 to fight Hatton. Add on to the fact that Hatton and his trainer wanted to fight Floyd at 147 because he was not that big. Another thing that gets lost in the shuffle when people try to discredit this fight for being at 147 is that when they BOTH were at 140 Hatton's camp stated that they were NOT ready to fight Mayweather then. Ya'll need to stop over looking those facts and give credit for it is due.

i agree,one of floyds best wins imo

even though many things werent in hattons favour that night (147,cortez) mayweather was still facing a fucking beast

[Allucard]

Give Floyd credit for a victory on NSB?... you're a funny dude

Yeah lol, he's joking. Floyd will never get credit. Too bad the haters don't get to write the history books (can they even learn to type correctly?).

Just watched the fight again and Hatton looked really prime that night. He gave Mayweather his all and forced Floyd to dig in and show a different facet of his fight game. Hatton looked really strong at 147 because he didn't have to drain those last pounds to get to junior welter. He added power with those pounds.

It was #1 P4P vs. #8 P4P. A good KO for Floyd.

Not to mention Floyd layed out Hatton stepping backwards. All arm punch.

Certain boxing fans have short or selective memories.........just like the media that covers boxing.....

Hatton was the number one guy at 140, though.

so what, he was undefeated and confident when floyd from him.

undefeated and confident at 147 which he had been fighting at>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>no longer undefeated, faded and shot at 140

I would give cortez more credit for the ko of hatton, if not for the help of cortez maybe floyd could still win that fight in decision but i have a feeling that hatton could knock floyd out just like what he did against tszyu.

Hatton was really dangerous and very skilful. It's one of Floyds best wins for sure.
