Has Hatton fought a 1st class fighter in their Prime?

Hatton has never faced an A class fighter in their prime

 

No..where in brooklyn you at?

 

Michigan actually

 

I agree 100%, but I'm starting to get a little confused. "Floyd will constantly land his precise shots on Hatton", "Hatton has not fought an A fighter in his prime" - While all true, still, with Hatton in your avator, your still a Hatton fan, right? And will at least be rooting for him against Mayweather?

Or have I gathered wrong?

 

No he hasn't......but he is on the 8th

 

even if hatton does get beat on saturday night,and it is a close decision within two or three rounds,or even if its stopped on cuts can the people on here appreciate that he is a top class fighter,truly elite for the light ww anyway.he'll not be a fake in the slightest if beat admirably,same goes for pbf if he gets knocked out by a hatton hook.

 

Tszyu was not in his prime but he wasnt at all washed up either, as he showed only months before against Mitchell, his skils were lethal. Tszyu simply had ring rust/wasnt fight fit - a lack of rounds in the prior years in combination with his age, as well as possibly a natural weakness in his game, meant that Hatton could just simply wear him out with his infighting - a very, VERY draining fight. After 8 Tszyu was gassed and Hatton could throw him around the ring.

 

After 8 when Hatton clubbed his balls like Captain Caveman...

 

I agree :yep

 

Yeah he just retired afterwards because he wasn't washed up.

He had 18 months out of action because of three critical injuries. He fought one bout before Ricky after the 18 month layoff, and it was Sharmba Mitchell.
