Is Hatton dirty

[JuicyJuice]

I honestly have never noticed Hatton to beat a dirty fighter, and I've been watching him closely for 11 years.

Strange.

It doesn't matter about how he comes. He's dirty just to be dirty. He'll whack the guy in the back of the head as the bell rings in a round he won with no obvious reason.

Unless he has Tourette's syndrome, there is no need to be as dirty as Hatton is...

Hatton may be a little dirty and/or rough, but he comes to ****ing fight every time and I like that about him. Just like Nard before him, he comes to beat your ass and if he has to elbow you or hit you low once or whathaveyou he'll do it.

I don't mind it, as long as it's not pre-meditated.

I dont understand the dirty thing, Rick was dirty in the Tszyu fight which I guess is the fight that most of the haters in here have seen, but previous to that, not at all. Tszyu is shrewd and he was just as dirty as Ricky in that fight, and besides if Ricky did clinch in that fight, and I swear I never really noticed him clinching much at all before that, it was part of the gameplan, if he didnt clinch so much may not have won and we wouldnt be talking about him.

No he's not dirty, but he's rough. Either way, he may fight a little dirty but he clinches and roughs them up with the INTENTION of throwing punches.

By the way, I'm confused as to why some posters here don't like Hatton. What's not to like?! Flyy tell me.

Because some Americans are quick to dismiss 'outsiders' and other countries fighters, most of em' hype there own up too much and don't think any other boxers can be better then some of theres

my two cents,

He is dirty....

You tell how he fights by looking at his face......no wonder he suffers from cuts so much.....

my two cents,

you mean how the americans hyped up lacy and many others before him , many people dont like hatton because theyve only seen him fight hes most dangerous fighter (tszyu) where he used the game plan to win the fight

[BloodClot]

I voted no, because his team personaly assured me that Hatton takes a shower before and after every fight!

If the referee does not see it or even does and allows it then it is fair game. Fighters do what they have to in there dirty or not. It comes down to the referee keeping the bout under control.

Dirty fighters, as you call them, have been in the game since the beginning of it all. Lamotta was not exactly a clean fighter but I have never heard anybody complain about him. He did what he had to do. Its the referees place to call them as he sees him, if he allows it than its fair game. Simple as that.
