    On Nuts tv in the uk right now.

    watched this at the time and was just happy that he'd won. watching it sober now its probably his worse performance on the world stage, dirty fight ,low blows galore .
    still a good win though.

    They show this to prisoners at Gitmo when they don't listen.

    I think we're pretty much agreeing with you.

    ESB is serious business!

    thunder has this thing about hatton, he sees a thread and storms into it two footed with some childish remark.

    Well at least for this fight he's on the money. Hatton looked awful.

    hatton's worst performance on a world stage, well there are a lot of contenders

    v collazo (arguably should have lost)
    v urango as u say (hatton won this but it was one ugly encounter)
    v mayweather (pretty much exposed, granted it was by the p4p #1)
    v lazcano (hatton won but he was hurt a lot more than lazcano was)

    in defense of hatton, he has had two good performances on a world stage, v tszyu (ricky made him lose his heart in that fight) and v castillo (and a good case can be made jlc was totally shot at that point)

    still he's had relatively good comp recently and he's won all his fights save one

    Not everyone who downplays a fighters win has a thing against that fighter.

    I'm a big fan of Hatton but even I can admit he looked like dog **** against Urango. Arguably one of the worst fights I've ever seen on HBO.

    collazo at least was a good fight , lazcano was entertaining but was also one-sided apart from a few hiccups.hatton gave him a right hiding. as for the mayweather fight, he came up against a genuine modern great who had his number. he did get it all wrong on the night but would have lost whatever.
