    And? Floyd was never a knockout puncher and Hatton was undefeated.

      But that is the point Ricky never weighed as heavy as he did with Collazo against Floyd, he said he was sluggish and would never weigh that heavy again, and he never did.

      Just because the title and label was WW Ricky weighed exactly the same weight on the night as he did fighting KT, and Floyd was a pound lighter.

      The Title was WW but the weight the fighters were actually fighting at was Jnr WW fight night weight.

        I remember I was boxing at this time, every kid in the gym was trying that check hook during sparring, it was hilarious as you could see what they were trying to do.

        Great fight.

            and it still took TBE 10 rds to take out a weak comp. that's all.

              Nice way to spin what happened to suit your argument. Hatton was 43-0 with 30 knockouts and a two time world champion. No one had stopped Hatton before Floyd faced him. So don't act like taking 10 rounds to KO an undefeated champion is some kind of personal failure.

                why did floyd retire after hatton, he had paul williams margarito mosley and cotto all looking to fight him, 4 out of the top 5 guys at ww at the time, all massive fights but he retired, any reasons for that? That was the hottest division in boxing at the time too, very very odd

                  records really dont mean shiiet bruh. hatton was a bum! when floyd fought him, and when manny fought him. hatton is a bum period! dont think im saying this to throw shade at floyd, im also admitting that hatton was a bum when pac fought him. im not sure why some posters on here hold hatton to such a high standard. this dude is one of the worst. rushing in with no movements at all!

                    I think you need to brush up on what a "bum" is. Bums don't win world titles in boxing, bums don't have long undefeated streaks either. The bums are the guys with double digit losses, the bums are those guys who've never even challenged for a world title let alone won a world title.

                    Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Pacquiao, De La Hoya, Whitaker, Holyfield, Lewis, Klitsckho all couldn't attain a 43-0 record. Hatton was no all time great but he certainly as no slouch either.

                      he fought weak comp. just because you win a title doesnt mean you're an ATG. there's about 3-4 names on his resume that stands out. the rest are bums!!! are you a hatton fan or something?
