16 year anniversary of one of the greatest fights in history . Floyd Sinclair vs Ricky Hatton

It was the ring post that knocked Hatton out lol. Pacquiao demolished him easy in 2 rounds

 

Hatton was a crude mauler with that high pressure
When this didn't work
He looked lost
Average carefully guided fighter

 

Floyd showed Hatton too much respect early on. He played the matador, but he could've stood his ground and opened up much earlier. He put a real whupping on Hatton when he started catching and shooting in the pocket.

 

Pacquiao beat Hatton at his best weight Jr Welterweight, Hatton only had 1 fight at Welterweight which was a disputed win vs Collazo.

 

Another tainted Floyd victory.

Let’s not get carried away.

hattons whole career was at 140lbs. He fought one fight against at best C+ level Collazo at 147lbs then came straight back down to 140lbs. Hatton looked terrible at 147lbs

And guess what, Mayweather dragged Hatton up to 147lbs . And not only that he paid the ref to protect him

Mayweather p4p cherrypicker

 

Pacquiao also beat him early at Hattons best weight 140lbs. Hatton loooked trash when he fought Collazo at 147lbs, the weight he fought Mayweather at

 

...hey I make the fight anniversary threads around here, buckoe.

Seriously though, greatest fights in history? Sit down and drink some water, baby. It wasn't even the most memorable KO in its decade - but it was up there, that much I'll give you. Second-funniest maybe, after Zab's chicken dance.

 

Another excuse by you go figure. You're becoming the biggest excuses maker on this forum. Pbf beat Ricky like drum and beats any version of him deal with it.

 

The lead up was amazing and Ricky held his own in the early rounds. Iconic fight that one, between two prime, undefeated fighters. It is also the one that broke Hatton, never was the same again.

 

I guess that check hook pbf beautifully timed and threw had nothing to do with it? Lmfao you excuse makers will say anything to discredit fighters you don't like, it's pathetic. Give a fighter his due and move on.

 

Stop!

 

Not really Hatton beat up Malignaggi after losing to Mayweather in one of his best performances.

Welterweight was not Hattons weight why do you think he moved back down after almost being knocked out by Collazo ? Hatton knew he couldn't compete with bigger stronger Welterweights.

Hatton took the Mayweather fight at Welterweight because it was a huge pay day against a top name so he rolled the dice.

Not that I'm saying Hatton would beat Mayweather at Jr Welterweight because Mayweather is a better fighter period. But by far Hattons best weight was Jr Welterweight that's where he had 99 percent of his fights at.
