Hatton's chin and brutal KO - Why?

Manny's feet were planted lovely and he swang his body into that left - Hatton walking in too - it would have put most men down imo.
The first round KDs though - they are more interesting i reckon - he was buzzed very early on...I think it's the old 'if you don't see it - it's gonna hurt'.

 

Well it's most likely a combination of all the options except the last one,years of wear and tear,Pac's power,not seeing the shots,the ballooning up in weight,etc all counted in what happened.And plus he hit his head on the canvas bad which added to the getting ''brutally KO'd'' thing.

 

Bradly isn't known as a big puncher. I remember the presenters referring to him as feather fisted against Holt. That may a bit harsh mind. His record doesn't suggest that.

I'd always give Bradly a chance.

Were five years down the road from the fight against Tszyu. A lot of pies, pints, punches on the chin and millions in the bank.

 

The lifestyle of constant binging and the mayweather loss sent him on a decline. Im still stunned he got taken down in 2 rounds .

 

He just dropped like a log, like Roy Jones did against Johnson.

 

Ricky's decline has been evident for a few fights now and I think the Malinaggi fight merely papered over some cracks. His days at the top level are well and truly over. He should retire with his health intact and enjoy his earnings and focus on his promotional company.

 

Froch? Allright he an unskilled caveman but you can't have everything.

 

It's hard to take in that Hatton has spent over 40 odd fights eating punches as a defence, then a guy from the smaller weights just drops him like a log.

 

Hatton have to be fit ALL THE TIME but he don't care what he eat.

He always FAT after the fight then train too hard to make the weight.

 

Think it could be fair to say it you could say All of the above to some degree.

 

Take your pick out of options 2,3 and to a lesser extent 5.

 

quite clearly out classed - not only from trainer tactics but from the fastest guy ive ever seen - think we watched a boxer last night who is just in another league

 

I've never ruled him out. I bet money on him to beat him Witter and think he is a vastly overlooked and underrated fighter.

 

I was going to post a similar thread

I have no Idea what happened to his chin and punch resistance, I thought that it was a one off thing in the PBF fight because none of the KD punches looked that devastating and I put t down to tiredness and being broken and frutrated by PBF...... but the same thing Happened with Pacman, some of those KD's were trully pathetic for a top level "tough" fighter in his own weight class.

I'm a big Hatton fan..... But I'm very dissapointed in Hattons preformance and I don't really want him to fight again

 

Ok, but he's not Hagler-esq. Good chin yes, but he got heavily dropped by a former middleweight that was not known for his power.

Calzaghe has a good chin, but even he put us through hell against Hopkins and Jones, I just wonder if those guys had been younger, perhaps they'd have gone in for the kill.

Lewis had a decent chin but again was knocked out.

Naz had a reasonable beard but was floored a few times, and gave us a few scares especially in the Kelly fight.

Benn was always dodgy around the whiskers.

Bruno got knocked out whenever he fought for a world title.

Hide was terrible.

Even Haye looks to have a very dodgy beard and let's not even talk about our best prospect, Amir Khan!

When are we going to get a Oliver McCall or a Margarito? A rock, concrete chin?

Eubank was a one off mind you.
