Afterwards he just ran to a decision because he had nothing left. And Paulie never could fight against brawlers, and he has no power. If Diaz had power, he would have destroyed him.

    I'm sure his Arreola type diet contributed too.

      Hatton vs. Mayweather - Hatton in his prime fighting the best fighter in the world.
      Hatton vs. Pacquiao - Pacquiao fighting a shell of Ricky Hatton.

            Okay fine, without the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" its still "Hatton got rocked by an old Lazcano, lost his punch resistance and didn't take care of his body". Is that better?

            And I'm not coming at you. I'm defending Hatton if anything, because a
            prime Hatton would have destroyed that old Lazcano.

            I'm only in the red because the Pac fangirls attacked me when I said Floyd was a better body puncher than Manny, by the way lol

              He needs to sit down somewhere its over for him now!
              WTF, where are your world titles?

              and yeah most people think he should call it a day including his brother.

              It pisses me off when someone like myself who has done not one day of training but feels justified in calling a ligitimate boxer and world champion at two weights (somone who achieved more as an amature boxer than I will in my life) a BUM.

                you're entitled to your opinion, you might be right too. I have a feeling he'll fight one more time however.

                  I think he will too, but im worried that if he does come back for a farewell fight he may lose again and that could effect him mentally for a while! If the desire to fight again doesnt hit him soon then he may aswell call it a day!

                    I don't know about knocking the confidence out, but he seems to be pretty confident, too confident in fact that he thinks he could bully the pacman thus getting knocked down as early as the first and out in the 2nd.

                      Hatton's problem is that he balloons up in weight and has to torture his body to get down to 140. Doing that really hurts his punch resistance. However, his skills are still there. In some ways his skills are better than ever since he can box a little now whereas he used to be just a brawler. Lazcano and Malignaggi are both respectable contenders and Hatton basically won every round of both those fights. If Hatton has a long training camp to get in shape, he should be able to win a belt at 147, especially if he goes after Jan Zaveck's belt.
