        note: this has nothing to do with floyd-pac
        we already knew this before the hatton fight

            You mean, the referee was really good at controlling the distance.

                    Anytime somebody starts talking about the ref in a fight. You know they are an excuse maker.

                            Hatton just wasnt good enough to be sharing the same ring as the Mayweather's..Pacquiao's.

                                They should have used the Hatton-Tsyzu referee!!! Dave Parris...

                                    Sicne when is it okay to try to hug your opponent for the entire fight? This is a boxing match, not a wrestling match. Its the ref's job to step in when he sees excessive holding. Hatton tried the same crap against Pacquiao and the ref did the same exact thing, yet nobody complains about that (well actually one idiot tried to).

                                        The ref did an awful lot of intervening. Mostly on those times Hatton was able to get in.
