Thats nothing more than semantics. Ricky has used more than his fair share of dirty tactics over the years. He can have no complaints.
interesting. so I am to assume you weren't joking. There's clearly something wrong with you. Or maybe you were just out your tree while watching it? Watch it again...sober.
Oh shut up you pompous twat. How long you been postingon ESB now? You think you would have got it right by now. :roll: Im not interested in a debate on semantics with you. The facts remain Hatton WAS NOT winning that fight at any moment in the fight.Its wholly juvenile to put any significance on any punches that he did even land when its abundantly clear PBF`s body of work was far superior.
LIKE WHAT clinching, since when was clinching a dirty tactic..... floyd is infamous for forearms and elbows to your face....it's ****en dirty cause he uses it to create a combo... he puts that left forearm right on your face (rubbing it), and then he either drops that same hand and jabs the stomache followed by a right hand.....HE ALWAYS DOES THAT ****...anybody who denies that hasn't even been following floyd.....i remember since way back, floyd has always done that.....
No, you're right... Hatton never one any minute of the fight. You are right, the rest of the world is wrong. Anyone who believes that Hatton didn't win a single minute of that fight is not a boxing fan.... or they are a blind person listening to a biased Floyd fan/Hatton hater explain the fight to them.
More bull****. Dont blame Cortez he wasnt doing the fighting.Incase you didnt know Ricky was. Kid got beat at his own game. Thats the difference between a seasoned veteran and B+ fighter. Class always prevails. Ricky has none when he and fans insist Cortez was to blame.
firstly, I said it was journalists who said that...many of them. I agreed with them. so what the **** are you talking about with 'the rest of the world must be wrong'? Plenty people saw if for the 1-sided beating it was. Honesly man....go and seek help.
and Hatton even said his fans were partly to blame as they must've pissed off Cortez when they booed the American anthem. The kis is a joke. isn't Cortez Puerto Rican anyway?
Hatton won one round and he is unquestionably a dirty fighter; Hatton's m.o is to leap in with a left, clinch and walk his smaller weaker opponent to the ropes (not allowed in the rules), stick the top of his head in their face, throw to the body or below the belt and leap back. e's been allowed to do it his whole career because they were home town fights and the referee's knew the script so the clinches were never broken up, proper warnings not given, pointsot deducted etc. Hatton moaning about Cortez is a joke, he should keep his gob shut and reflect on how all his opponents in manchester must have felt while getting the same treatment which he thinks he got.
Cortez can't be held accountable for his job as the ref... because he wasn't fighting? You are such a brilliant poster. I never said that Hatton would have won if Cortez had done a better job. That doesn't mean that I wouldn't have liked to see that fight take place with a fair ref.
I have not read ONE single journalist who said that Hatton never one a single minute of that fight. You are a liar. Show me one respected or hell... even any journalist who said that Hatton didn't win any one minute of that fight.
hatton was not even in the fight the only round i gave him was the 5th and even that was because mayweather took a break after opening up on him in the 4th. Even in the 5th you'd be hard pressed to find a decent solid punch or combo that really landed flush or had an impact on floyd. Guys who thought he was ah.ead at the 6th jus plain dont know how to score it hatton was eating leather everytime he came in dont act like his aggression was effective
