Only losers like SweetHomo_Bama who been watching boxing for about 2 minutes and try to act like they know something.
Ricky Hatton would of knocked Rios out with a bodyshot, I'm certain. Rios and Murray could well end up fight of the year, mark my words.
I saw Hatton on his way up, no one rated him that highly he was seen as a protected fake champ with that WBU belt. HE turned down fights with Corley, Judah, Witter (00 onwards), Mayweather (04), Mitchell (Mitchell wanted more money), Harris (upped his demands too tbf), while the whole time feasting on SFWs and ex contenders in their late 30s. He was a joke then and people thought Tyszu would blow him out but he prevailed and put in a hell of a performance. Rios to me looks like pure quality though, his skillset is better than Hatton's.
Rios is a knockout waiting to happen and it will be earlier in his career than Hattons was. His defence is awful, he has no lateral movement or head movement, hes just a crude slugger with good power and a decent chin. Clumsy looking fighter with sloppy footwork. His skillset is FAR less well rounded than Hattons and believe me im no Ricky fanboy.
I'm sorry but from what i've seen Rios is more skilled than Hatton ever was. I'm not gonna' say Rios would beat a prime Hatton because we've yet to see Rios at 140lbs, but he's more skilled than Hatton was
Yep Hatton showed his technique and footwork were so good he wouldn't have had a problem with that ATG "Luis Collazo" right? :rofl:rofl:rofl Hatton was a crude swarmer who was never in shape and made a name beating cans and has beens, when he stepped up comp on the world stage he was exposed badly, so he cashed out quickly.
DKSAB? Enlighten me please... Also, what does your comment indicate? I'm usually extremely fair in my post's. Just because i'm English doesn't mean i have to suck Hatton's ball's... He get's far overrated by the British fans
Stop embarrassing yourself SweetHomo, you know nothing. If Hatton was a crude swarmer, wtf is Rios? Hatton had way more skill as a boxer (you might need to look this word up) than stumble forward clumsy bum Rios.
Wrestling and hugging isn't skill. Rios is a crude puncher, but even he has demonstrated more skill in say cutting off the ring and in-fighting that Hatton ever did.
