    Props too TS for being a real boxing fan
    I'm American and Filipino and don't really care for much of the boxers in either countries except for the obvious ones who aren't BUMS like Hatton.

      sorry but try as much as i may, i just cant like the guy. he's tough and keeps going but he's average at best, not world champ level. i thought his did well against Alvarez, he made Alvarez look limited at times too....but even still i'm a bigger fan of Alvarez and i'm British! lol

        Real boxing fans dont call pro fighters bums,you have obviously never stepped into a ring in your life and have no idea what these guys go through physically or mentally too entertain idiots like you

          not a fan of hatton or canelo but give hatton props and respect for giving it his best. canelo had many advantages over him but hatton handled it well i believe.

            Well, like others have said, I can respect his heart, his will and his determination, but it's takes more for that to be a fan, and I simply don't find him skilled and/or entertaining enough to be one.

                  He's not a bum, posters here are bums but not Mathew Hatton. He took a lot of punishment and landed some good shots back.

                  Canelo was just too fast and strong for him but the Brit came to fight, I alway give any man who steps into a ring to make his living respect.

                      Absolutely


                      if guys werent tough as nails we wouldnt have boxing


                      if a guy who was outgunned gave up immediately we wouldnt even fight the fights


                      next time hatton fights i'm going to watch
                      hopefully hbo is serious about bringing him back as an opponent


                      their standard opponents are there for the money
                      hatton wanted to win

                      if hbo treats him well it will set an example for future opponents for hbo fighters
                      and it will improve the level of the fights we're given that are less than 50 - 50
