i think they actually called it a "check-hook" but that doesn't change the fact the turnbuckle did help him.
Pac squares-up perfectly for Floyd's jab to the solar plexus.:yep Pac should be fighting somebody FAST with movement...slow-motion plodders isn't helping him LEARN what it takes to beat a guy Mayweather's level.:deal
The fact is that left hook was there BEFORE the turnbuckle.. Had that punch landed in the middle of the ring Hatton would have been humping the tecate logo on the canvas.
Hatton was heading foreward towards the FLOOR when he hit that PADDED turnbuckle. Any fool could see that he was going DOWN FACE FIRST. To say he would have landed on his face...judging by the angle and momentum of his body..is hardly theory and conjecture.:deal
you said if the punch landed in the middle of the ring... it didn't actually happen that way. ergo, pure speculation and conjecture in your part. we can still contnue this back and forth... but i want to now look at other threads and answer other discussions. thanks.
