Hatton vs Marquez

[danceswithfire]

jmm has never beaten anyone as big and as strong as hatton in his entire carreer...jmm would'nt be able to keep hatton off of him..close fight but i got hatton by decison

I don't agree with the hugging part but I do agree the ref has a role to play. If it's reffed like a corrupt Cortez or an interfering Pabon seperating the fighters wherever possible then I see Marquez outboxing Ricky, but a Smoger who lets fighters fight then Hatton dominates.

Not gonna' argue w/you about this point as I don't wanna' dog your favourite fighter. I'll just say that I didn't like the way he got the win over Kostya Tzu.

Manny Pacquiao was unable to dominate JMM in 3 fights. What makes you think Hatton would?

would have loved to see this fight a few years ago. but now, not so much.

if it does happen, which i think i would have more chance of winning the lottery than this fight happening, iv got marquez fairly easily.

You're describing a version of JMM I haven't watched (and I've seen quite a few of his fights).

JMM likes to stand in front of his opponent, box and counter-punch. How does he deal with an opponent leaning on his chest all night stopping him from getting off?



Triangle theory? JMM would catch Hatton on the way in, everyone catches Hatton on the way in but the only time it has bothered Hatton is against Pacquiao and Marquez just doesn't have that kind of power.

It's difficult to know where Hatton is at right now in terms of punch resistance but IMO this is a fight made for him.

watch the katsidis fight.

watch the katsidis fight.

I watched it the night it was on. Katisidis doesn't get as consistently close Hatton to smother his opponent, nor does he have the offensive footwork. Like Marquez he's also a natural 135lb fighter, Hatton is a 140lber. Hatton leans on his opponent, ties them and (in his prime) is generally relentless. It's also worth noting Kats was decent v Marquez and dropped him at one point.

If you're a boxing fan you'll know styles make fights and that triangle theories don't hold much water.

Weebler II, I know Hatton is your favorite fighter and your British pride is commendable, but these poll numbers should be telling you something!

prime to prime at 140. hatton would swallow and walk thru marquez. he would wrestle marquez. floyd even had a tough time hurting hatton at 147 with those super clean shots how much more marquez at 140? floyd just had a great defense, footwork and inside game and too fast thats why he's able to handle prime hatton easily. marquez dont possess any of that. he's a solid puncher at 140 and below and has great counterattacks and has pacquiao's number but he aint beating hatton.

Marquez makes him rethink his entire life choices and ultimately tko's him in the mid rounds


It would be significantly easier than people thinkk

Marquez would make Hatton give up on his religious beliefs.
