    No. It was a clean KO but not devastating and Rick didn't take any kind of a beating. He wasn't really winning the fight or any rounds. Floyd was fighting very intelligently and was able to nullify almost everything Rick threw at him over the course of 10 rounds but By no means was it a completely dominating fight. Rick made it ugly and a very phsyical fight for floyd at 147 and Floyd seemed to thin that was his hardest fight.

    I tend to agree....not that he didnt' think PAC couldn't cut or buzz him with combos....but not completely put him on ICE like he did. I didn't expect that either.

    Not really. The way that Callazo and the way Floyd faught/beat hatton was FAAAAR different than the way PAC did. Completely differnt style, game plan and ending. PAC made his own blue print with Roachs help.

    Do you mean the Ricky Hatton that went back down running scare after receiving a gift on his fight against Luis Collazo????? The Ricky Hatton that after that fight Mayweather Jr realized Hatton wasn't **** and it was going to be an easy fighter for him because the guy doesn't belong at that weight class. NO!!!! Floyd didn't ruin him. The guy wasn't **** even before Floyd

    No. A veteran Irish heavy called Arthur Guinness ruined him.
