Thats rubbish to be honest. The most recent schoolings that everyone will acept are Hop over Pavlik and Calzaghe over lacy. Mayweather out boxed Hatton late on and cought him with enuff shots to get the KO. Hatton won some rounds Lacy or Pavlik didnt Hatton was competative for a long while - neither Pavlik or Lacy were. In the end PBF was just too good and probably proved he was a level above hatton but he didnt school him. Far from it
It was competitive until Floyd got the KO. Not just for one or two rounds. Look, on the night Hatton got the tactics wrong, didn't bring his a-game, and was simply up against the best fighter in the world. It was gutsy performance, I'm not I can have respect for anyone who regards it a schooling, becasue that doesn't really make sense in terms of what most people think "a schooling" means.
ricky was beaten by the better fighter in mayweather lacy was schooled by calzaghe pavlik was schooled by hopkins see the difference?!
He wasn't schooled....he was giving Mayweather all he could handle early on then Mayweather figured him out and started to land most of everything.
Rounds one through seven were relatively competitive, though I only gave Hatton a single round in that stretch (Round 5). In rounds eight through ten (particularly 8 & 10) Hatton was taken to school.
I Agree with this point. Hatton was doing well in the first 3 rounds and hurt Floyed at one point but Floyed got use to Hattons style and started to takeover.
not really to the degree of lacy-calzaghe/hopkins-pavlik, but it was a thorough beatdown. if i remember the correctly, i gave hatton 1 round max. floyd nailed him with plenty of left hooks and straights throughout the fight. it was'nt as much leather as calzaghe or hopkins landed, but the shots floyd landed were very accurate and had a lot behind them. it was a shutout, but hatton was a very live active fighter throughout, and had to make floyed work. very commendable performance by hatton, but he was in against a far better fighter.
Probably half way beteen a win and a schooling. However floyd was in control the whole time, and if you think about it in the sense that Floyd methodically broke Hatton down, uped the anti and the knocked him out it certainly was a schooling.
that is actually...and i am being dead honest...the stupidest post i have ever seen in my entire life
To you.I don't consider it a schooling altough it ain't pretty far from it.Too many close rounds early on.I don't consider it a schooling.
