Calzaghe by far is the only fighter that i like compared to Hatton. Hatton like to clinch alot. I haven't seen this fight yet, but i can tell from what i am hearing that he clinched alot. I mean Hatton is a good fighter, but clinching all the time can get annoying. This is why i don't look up to him. Lets see if Hatton will move up to 147 for bigger fights.
OMFG this man clinches sooo much it was honestly making me angry because he cannot mix it up. Mayweather would it him for lunch. The man honestly jumps in to clinch even Mayweather would not fall for that he would just fight backwards like he can and punch the crap out of Hattons head.
Against Mayweather his entire gameplan would be trying to close the gap as fast as possible. Hatton can close the gap faster than anybody in the sport, but after tonights fight and the three fights before that I don't know if Ricky is quite the same fighter he used to be up-close for if he actually does close the gap fast enough and get up-close with Mayweather.
he has looked drained in his last two fight now and his legs went in both fights.
the only other fight he held as much in was against kosta, and this was his strategy so tszyu couldn't throw that big straight right.
i hope it's just hatton getting used to 140 again. because all the haters can make as many threads as they want. the truth is that was nowhere near the level hatton can produce, that brittish fight fans have come to love.
he holds when he feels the guys power. and guess what! hes getting nothing but big names now. so take another guess what his strategy will be.
and not exciting in the states means not big exposure all around
hatton's style is NOTHING SPECIAL
he holds WAY TOO MUCH and often fights dirty
and people say he's a great body puncher.
i've seen better body punchers than him. many of'em.
even urango through more damaging body shots in the fight...
