I knew PBF would outclass Hatton. Ricky did come to fight I'll give him that but he really didn't stand a chacne. BTW Leaderman's card was a disgrace I gave Hatton 2 rounds in the fight.
Floyd showed a little of the Floyd at 140lbs version. And I knew if that Floyd showed up and he unleashed his hands and some combinations that he would KO Hatton. The only chance I thought hatton would have would be to have Floyd turtle up and run so much that he lost rounds just by the running itself. This fight reminded me soooo much of Trinidad vs Hopkins.
Ok BRO! I'm gonna give the devil his due tonigt. PBF did adjust, box masterfully in the last 2 or 3 rounds and delivering the CLEAR OUTCOME. I must also give Floyd credit for AFTER the fight. You could see the coaching but again Floyd pulled it OFF:good But I still say Floyd has to fight Cotto/Williams. It aint about my opinion as much as it is that the real ATG Champions have done what Floyds done and more, THATS FACTS. See I respect FACTS and when Floyd does it? I'll respect it:yep I AM TONIGHT. He wasnt 40 Champ officialy but we know he would have been. What I ask YOU, and I think you have a higher than average awareness for a Floyd fan, is can you deny that Cotto is a MUST? I believe Williams is as well if he wins in Feb. I mean if Floyd IS THE GREATEST? WHY BE DENIED THAT RESPECT? No ones saying he has to fight 3 or 4 years more:nono Two fights should take maybe two years at most and allow Floyd to call the shots, make money, EARN RESPCT:happy If you are the man DO IT!! ****ing Michael Jordan DID IT!! "Insert great athlete" DID IT!! You do it to be the best, prove you are the best and if Floyd can and manage to mature in the process? He could really turn it out and be a life long cog as promoter and player in Boxing. Do it Mario Lemeiux style, BUY THE FRANCHISE!!! Aint that Money May? Wanna really be admired Floyd, ENDEARED? Keep making the excitement, leave you're STAMP, and perhaps help the sport and more fighters get ahead as you did. BE REAL and the respect will be as well. Floyd has set himself UP to a stretch run that can put him there 4 REAL and he walks away?:-( :-( :-( :-( Thats been the problem the WHOLE WAY. Although for all you're criticism Hatton was live and was effective in the first six rounds or so. Floyd needs to change his image and work on laying off the gangsta thug image. There's greatness that can come from adversity, but there's 8 trillion stories about wasted talent cut short by STREET LIFE. Hey, Floyd its OK to acknowledge but take action to UPLIFT. Give back with TIME AND MONEY for positive. This content is protected
Good for you to give PBF his props.:good I really think PBF is done. It's a shame because I really want to see him face Cotto.
Floyd is ****ing SMART! He may leave now with tons of money, his health, and the legacy of an ATG. But Cotto-Mayweather is the fight to be made in all of boxing. It's on top of my wish list too.
