    I usually don't like such complaints but I felt the same way as Hatton when watching the fight. Not saying he would have beaten Floyd, far from it. But Cortez made it much easier than necessary for Floyd and pretty much killed what could have been an excellent clash of styles ala Maidana vs Floyd

    Hatton fought rough, that was his style. The fact the ref broke them when FM held is considered helping Floyd. Ward Fought rough against Kovalev. The ref allowed him to work and the ref helped him cheat. LOL

    Funny I do not remember Hatton continually bombarding Floyd's testes the way Ward did Kovalev while ref Tony Weekes looked the other way. My suggestion was that Weekes should have a lesson on human anatomy he'd find that a man's navel is not level with his testes. That was as blatant as Golota's assault on Riddick Bowe
    Yeah Hatton fought rough but Floyd's whole fight Hold, run, elbow shiver, run repeat was his forte
    The biggest laugh was when Maidana tired of having Floyd's elbow shoved in his face all fight long & returned the favor Bayless had the gall to take a point. I guess only Floyd was allowed to repeatedly do that

    Considering how much Hatton got away with throughout his career including fights against Tszyu, comments like this from Hatton just make him look like a big hypocritical sook.

    LOL, Ward hitting Kov excessively low is way overblown. Guts need to stop with all that.

    Never would he beat Floyd.

    Made £1250 by picking Floyd to KO him in the 10th round as well.

    All this Hatton bends the rules with fouling...Mayweather holds each opponent tighter than his closest love.
    Everytime he got in trouble particularly in his later career he would grab his opponent. Terrible.
    Surely that is bending the rules too, such excessive holding. It also looks absolutely awful.
    Compare him with a defensive technician like Whitaker or Benitez at least they didn't have to exploit this loophole in boxing rules in order to win.

    I always thought it would be pretty 50 -50 hatton v Maidana
    The forum certainly seems to have changed it's mind on that one.

    Watch the fight again The advert on the front of Kov's trunks is where those fouls kept landing you can see Kov's navel way above then you have the waist band

    Exactly, but he's been whining about it non stop despite all the evidence that shows how wrong he is.
