Mayweather turned his back and stuck his body out the ropes to avoid getting hit. Don't see that very often but i know it's not legal.
I agree. Mayweather knows every trick in the book and lots of them aren't legal. I thought the Hatton story was funny. In his early fights Hatton was one of my favorites and he was always game to the finish.
People who were ragging on Abril against Rios need to go watch some Ricky Hatton fights.. that dude hugged fighters like he was in love.. go watch Tszyu vs Hatton for confirmation.. now THATS someone who should have been disqualified several times for his hugging and clinching..
i can remember watching that fight live and thinking when is the ref going to disqualify this guy but the ref didn't even give him a damn warning..
and in the Mayweather v Hatton 24/7 i can recall Hattons trainer several times telling Hatton to hug (and "nullify" his opponent) plus he said that in-between rounds during the actual fight..
was there ever anyone that was consistently a worse hugger/holder than Hatton or was he the worst offender in all boxing history?
