Man you always seem like a very smart poster even though usually talk about older fighters who I could care less about but damn Hatton has more Skillz? all he has is heart, pressure and a fair chin since Kostya really never landed a bomb on him you can't call it good yet.It takes skill to adjust to your opponent Like Castillo can. Hatton always uses the same plan smother and go to the body and head butt and rabbit punch worked for him so far but I see that getting exploited by a dancing boxer/puncher with as much gas as Hatton like PBF and I think Cotto could lure Hatton into fighting his fight to as he has more power than Hatton IMO. -

OK I will be perfectly honest with you I have only seen Hatton fight Zoo and I saw the Ben Tackie fight after the fact and he did exactly what I said against both guys and Tackie is a solid guy but by no means really good and the ZOO fight when Zoo was not the Normal ZOO I was used to seeing but can't imagine him doing things a whole lot different against the rest of the bums on his resume with the exception of Olivera who is clearly old...yet tough I will admit.I just think he still has alot to prove against top top guys not to say he can't but back to the subject at hand clearly Castillo has better skills and flexibility to adjust.Originally posted by JUYJUYWatch Hatton's fights.

I've never seen anybody able to throw four or five left hooks as fast as Hatton, it is unbelievable skill like I've never seen, his triple left-hook is executed in under a second. And Hatton's corkscrew uppercut is awesome, and he has a lot of custom moves that nobody else can do! He's always been the best body-puncher in the world, and his timing is like a cat.
I watched Ricky in the amateurs, and it was not difficult to see that he was a special one. He went in there against the best of the Cuban's and just out-skilled them all as a bundle of energy, he had amazing talent in the amateurs and it's a shame that he was robbed at the world championships because he was the best fighter there.
"Out of all the fighters in world boxing today, none of them are more talented than Ricky Hatton. Now remember the name because he is a future all-time great." - Manny Steward said that in 2000 when Ricky was at the Kronk following his fight in Detroit
"I watch Ricky Hatton all the time, and he amazes me with the moves he makes. I sit there and watch him and I just think that's it's almost perpetual motion." - Sugar Ray Leonard 2004 (back in April, Sugar Ray predicted that Hatton will beat Tszyu)
It's interesting that Manny Steward actually had Hatton in his top 10 lb4lb Before the Tszyu fight (probably on skill alone?).
Ricky has all the skill in the world, he just lacks heart. He's never taken boxing seriously enough or anywhere near seriously enough, if he had heart to match his skill he'd of been unbeatable.
He's the most skilled white fighter I've seen.Last edited by JUYJUY; 09-22-2005, 03:29 AM.Comment
