As a Floyd fan, I even have to admit that he has abysmal footwork

    Watch Floyd Oscar to see some lateral movement from him

    I believe it was after the 4th that he made the adjustment

    Floyd arguably has the best footwork in the game.

    Hatton had good footwork yes, but your getting mixed up in that.. Hatton had great footwork in cutting the ring and many said it was fantastic when he created the angles to get his body shots off on the inside- but lets remember that Floyd outfought Hatton on the inside that night.

    To be fair, for what he was, Ricky Hatton's footwork was really pretty good (I'm an American). He had nice quick feet and knew how to cut off the ring on guys and pressure them. Sometimes that's a better strategy than others. Not better than Floyd's by any stretch, but good for his preferred style.
