    Decent win. Hatton was exposed badly for his lack of defensive skills

      That was a crazy fight man. When I sit back and wonder what life is about, the more I see pbfm as the goat. He was on everybodies tv set for the last 2 decades. He really did put in his dues, from hungry up and comer to stable champ to reigning ****y pound for pounder. He didn't just win one big fight then retire in two more, he had a legacy.

      I heard after the cotto fight his body was so sore that he stayed in the shower for 3 hours drinking mountain dew.

          It was a good win

          Hatton was undefeated and beaten some decent fighters. He never really was the same fighter at 147 though.

          Even so, you can only rate a fight by how it was when the fight was announced and Hatton was one of the top fighters around those weights at the time.

          Also, Floyd pretty much beat him at his own game inside, which was impressive.

          I’d argue that was probably the end of Floyd’s prime. When he returned in 2009, his legs were never the same as 2007 and before, it got noticeable definitely after the JMM fight. Yet he still beat a lot of top fighters after that.

            Hatton was KING at 140 not 147!

            Hatton was a 0 at 147. Fought there and looked shaky so he went back down to 140 until Floyd called him back up at 147.

              Im no floyd fan bit i was so happy to see him kick Hatton’s boring ass.

              I really hated watching Hatton fight. He held more than John Ruiz and overall just very ugly and sloppy.

              That might have been floyd’s best win.
