Cortez tainted Floyd’s Victory

Well I, for one,cannot see it.

The thing that most people seem to be overlooking is that it was Floyd doing most of the clinching and Hatton was not getting any advantage out of these clinches. It was masterful strategic grappleing by Floyd that nullified Rickys inside game and therefore fight prospects. As soon as Hatton got close Floyd put his arms around him and slid that elbow nice and high thus situating the fighters in a lock from which there could be no action. At this point Cortez must break them up because the fighters are locked!! It was no disadvantage to Hatton being seperated at these junctures because he wasnt getting anything done, just as Floyd wasnt -Floyd had stalled the action. It was strategic genius on behalf of Floyd. Also, its why I dont believe for a second that Floyd hadnt watched any tapes. That was a guy who knew exactly what he was doing in the ring and who executed a perfect technique against a fighter with strategic prowess of his own.

WAIT A MINUTE... YES I DID!!!

 

You should go on stage with that wit.

You remind me of a cross between Bill Hicks and Oscar Wilde (as they are today).
