    Hatton fights on the inside though, that's why he had some "success" (if you can call it that).
    Pac is a mid-range fighter, it's not his speed in closing in that would matter but rather his technique in creating those angles and swiftly pivoting away to get out of counter range.
    Their footwork, especially how they position themselves to punch, is really not comparable, except for the basic component of speed.

    :rofl:lol:

    Hatton won like a round or 2, you don't win rounds or applying the pressure but eating almost all the clean punches.

    Pacquiao and Hatton fight nothing alike.

    There's plenty of evidence to back up a claim that Pacquiao wins or gives Mayweather a tough fight, it's not hard at all, but the Hatton fight is a terrible example.

    No.

    Mayweather almost fell back because their feet got tangled. Hatton did not land a right hook when this happened.

    Please tell me what being a southpaw has to do with cutting off the ring, if you can not cut off the ring then you can't deal with Floyd

    Hatton got schooled he was beaten at his own game and knocked out. It was a underrated clinic if anything.:deal

    If you dont know then you dont know how to cut off the ring. Its something you have heard but have no idea how the **** its done.

    Tell me as an in an othedox v. orhedox fight when you get your oponent to the ropes how to you keep them from escaping to your left.

    When you realize that you will realize the difficulty when the angles are open.

    Are you sure? I just watched it again right now. I didn't see any tangled feet, but Hatton land two consecutive shots. It looked similar to the Judah flash knockdown. It wasn't like the Mosley shot, where he was practically lights out, but it was enough to hurt him temporarily and make fall off balance. More-so balance like the Judah knockdown.
