Who gets more credit for beating Hatton? Floyd for being the first or Pacquiao?

[talip bin osman]

look at undefeated fighters that was great at their prime but become damage goods after they suffer the loss, and this like RJJ,Cotto,Hatton(wasn't great but was good)

darchinyan got better after being pasted by donaire...

barrera went on to have a HOF career after being pummeled by junior jones...

kostya tszyu got even deadlier after suffering a KO loss to vince philipps...

It's certainly pac: impressive ko no questions asked.
Pac ko'ed hatton cold, pbf: hatton's still was on his senses till the ko. (or was it a kd?)
pac brawled hatton unto unconsciousness, pbf outboxed him cowardly.
Pac destroyed hatton's hopes of coming back to the limelight, pbf's ko was not enough to put off hatton to his senses.
And excuse me i'm a bit drunk..but i'm honest.

hatton walks around at 180 lbs. when not training....

floyd,beat him first took his heart

He has a chance to regain his heart but too bad, he faced an offensive monster.

[tredh]

No, you are joking and being stubborn. You was more impressed with how Pac destroyed hatton and put him to sleep. Hatton was trying to get up to fight PBF still.




Some fighters come back better after losing. The hatton that fought Pac was a much better fighter than the one who fought PBF.
Hatton just had a bad day at the office against Pac. It happens.

Please explain?

Floyd: Fought an undefeated Hatton at a weight class Hatton looked like dog-**** in the past at 147. Hatton was coming off an impressive win over a shot Castillo.

Pacquiao: Fought Hatton at Hatton's best weight class of 140. Didn't take 10 rounds to stop Hatton. Hatton was coming off an impressive win, dominating Paulie Malignaggi completely. And I personally think Paulie had more left in the gas-tank at this part of his career compared to Castillo of 07.



When Hatton lost to Floyd, he went on to have a terrific dominating win over Paulie. When Hatton lost to Pacquiao, Hatton went into retirement. Seems, like Floyd wasn't good enough to put Hatton in the retirement home!

Manny gets more credit because he came up to 140. Floyd should get more credit because ricky was undefeated.

None of them deserve that much credit for beating Hatton.

Hatton was never any good to begin with, Floyd didnt ruin him because there was nothing really to ruin. Pacquiao would have KOed a prime Hatton in 2 rounds also.

The reason Pacquiao won in 2 rounds opposed to Floyds 10 is that Hatton is a much better style matchup for Pacquiao.

*****s keep saying Hatton was undefeated. So what? The hatton who fought Pac was better than the hatton who fought PBF.

Hatton was not lacking confidence like *****s try making out when he fought Pac. He was trying to take Pacs head off his shoulders and forgot about his defense. A bad situation against a puncher like Pac.

Dont try convincing people who think for themselves that beating someone in 10 rounds is better than beating someone in 2 seconds.

Pac only fought Hatton because floyd knocked him out. Hatton took a lot of hard punches (almost 50% connect rate) in the head from floyd.

If floyd was not part of this discussion, I find it hard to believe anyone would say a fighter who lost for the first time by KO after taking 10 rounds of punishment somehow got better 2 fights later.

So once youve lost you cant improve and that it. The nail in the coffin for every boxer who ever walked the earth. Everyone should just retire after losing there first fight!

You *****s are bad for the game. Not good motivators for self improvement.
