finally someone tells it like it is. Hattons gotta re-adjust to the weight, get in a few more fights at that weight before he can take on the greats of the division. He'll be a great of the division eventually, buts its gonna take a while. I also see him going back down to fight castillo or carrales first. then going back up and winning some more titles in the welterweight division before dropping back down, and changing his style by the age of 31 or 32.Originally posted by SMCYes he's been criticised from alot of you guys on here for the Collazo fight but let's get some things straight yeah?
He's moved up in weight,it'll take time to adjust..what the **** did you expect?Hatton would K.O him in round 1? it was never going to happen.This was always going to be a tough fight..Hatton has always said he has trouble with southpaws I think yaa'l need to stop this Hatton hatin' cuz it aint healthy Maybe you should watch the fight again also because Hatton did win the fight end of,didn't the HBO commentators give it to Hatton? as well as ours,and as well as the judges in Boston..but yeah i suppose some of you geeks no better then the pros right? sort it out,
Yeah, it wasn't Hatton's best performance and he even held his hand up to that after the fight.He will sort it out with who ever he's against next.Aren't boxers not allowed to have a bad performance once in a while? PBF didn't exactly look unbeatable against Castillo did he? some of you guys on here really got to get a grip on boxing, you call yourself fans but really some of you don't know ****, i suggest you go and re study the sport because your making yourself sound like idiotsComment

Originally posted by HolmesThis could be a case of Hatton being highly overrated or Collazo highly underrated prior to last night's fight.
....I think maybe Hatton was overated based on his win over Zoo. He caught Zoo at the right time and in the right environment. I don't like his chances against Mayweather at all now. At the very least the fight last night should have been a draw and I would probably give the fight to Collazo.Comment

Originally posted by CastillofanHey JuicyJuice,
I am sure you know that Hatton used an extraordinary weight program for the Tszyu fight and he was explosive there.
I just think he is being overly ambitious having fought a lot of his career under Warren's wing; he wants to make a statement now. The problem is that these world class guys are no joke.
To fight a southpaw when southpaws give Hatton fits, then to fight one as good as Collazo in his first fight at the weight in a world title fight was a mistake and he was lucky to get away with it.
He's used to fighting more often, usually four times a year and now with HBO, he will not have the chance to do that. HBO will have him fight twice a year and that is not enough to keep him disciplined and in shape. He will have to compete for dates with too many other HBO fighters and on the strength of that performance, Hatton is not going to come at the top of the priority list unless they do the right thing by him and put him in at light welterweight with a hittable opponent next time out and have him look good.
I'm not sure fighting Collazo was a mistake, as it was an entertaining fight against a tricky, young and improving B+ fighter that gave the spectator value for moneyComment

Hatton fans dont want to hear a word of desagreement, they say that he can beat Mayweather, did Mayweather look bad in his first welterweight fight(he might have been small, but he took alot of good punches), and Judah is a strong, fast fighter. I dont hate on Hatton, his style is entertaining, but he's not unstoppable. What he need is a fight like Gatti/Ward so he can show of his style, but against top notch boxers he will fall, to say that he can beat PBF is a joke but people suggest it. He's a good fighter but he's not the great white hope(calzhagi probably is).Comment

i like his bulldog style of fighting but he lost last night playa...to be the champ you have to beat the champ!!!you know that....a u decision was ****** by the judges...it should have been a split/ collazo way...bottm line...but i must say hattan has some mean body blows...Originally posted by SMCYes he's been criticised from alot of you guys on here for the Collazo fight but let's get some things straight yeah?

I dont see it happening, I dont see him landing to many clean puches on PBF no one does, but hey anything is possible. What i think would probably end up being Hatton's Ward/Gattl is a fight with Cotto, their styles complament each other very well.Can Hatton walk through what Cotto throws at him, and can he keep the pressure going. What's your thoughts on Cotto/Hatton.Comment

I'm a PBF fan but have respect for Hatton,I don't think ppl Hate on him. I think that many of his followers said that he would beat the P4P king in PBF and when tou throw rocks at the King you have to come with a dominant performance to back those claims. To Hattons credit it's not his fault,but say after PBF's bashing of Gatti before the fight he gave an average perfomance ppl would ride him as well. He won fighter of the year and these thing's put him in the microscope,when your considered one of the best you have to keep leaving that thought in ppl's heads. So I think it comes with the territory that's why people were pressuring PBF to take the Margorito fight like 2 wks after the Judah fight. Once in the spotlight ppl are gonna question you and take shots as anybody that's on top of there respective sports.Comment

I agree 100% he is a good fighter and very entertaining to watch but he is not unstopable. Was is just me or did Callazo who is not known for his power hurt Hatton a few times?Comment
