    But Hatton has won awards for being an up an coming talent, so obviously people rate him for good reason. Noone is saying he is the most beautiful boxer to watch. But as i say a win is a win. If he fought PBF and won, i doubt he would have looked beautiful beating him. He might even wrestle PBF to the floor a few times.
    My point is how is looking like **** against an unknown build him up in the US? I think it was a total letdown and the only people excited about the Urango fight are in the UK. There is zero hype for that fight in the US because we know Hatton should not be fighting someone the level of Urango. Urango is a ShoBox level fighter right now...

      Looking like **** against an unknown is not going to build him up in the US. But Hatton didnt intend to look like ****!
      People know who Hatton is now though and they would like him to box maybe not Urango, but certainly PBF.

      • I personally think this will come down to who makes the most significant 'mistake' or if floyd hurts his hands again, which i unfortunately expect him to do. You can make mistakes against lesser opponents like baldomir but you can not make mistakes against dlh. The man is a seasoned champion with good power, it will cost him if he makes any mistake at all or if he comes in underestimating the golden boy.

        Running is not an option for him this time and I personally dont believe he can stand and exchange with DLH. he has to fight a perfect fight to win and if he pulls off the victory it surely wont be via ko.

        cant wait for Floyds first real fight but damn, until may :-/...

        • I'm buying this PPV, and that's the bottom line, cos EXIGE said so.
