    I've just watch rds 8-12 again to see what the hell you mean and I can't for the life of me understand where you get '***** street' from...

    Tackie knocked Hatton of balance at the start of the 10th but the shots were blocked apart from a kidney shot?

    If this is your '***** street' ... lol

    You find a post of mine where I say Hatton will win where I have disprected Pac. I think he is weak to the body, that doesn't mean its an easy fight, far from it.

    Its open in the air for me. I don't look through rose tinted specs like you seem to.

    I watched that fight when it took place. That was around like 6 7 years ago or whatever. Either way Hatton was CLEARLY hurt and said so in the interview after the fight. Im not going to get into a debate on semantics. The fact of the matter is it was NOT a clinic nor an easy peformance.

    Just admit you bullshitted.

    you think hes weak to the body from something that happened a long time ago when he was a kid fighting in a much lower division but you forget that he was never close to being stopped since then.

    yes i like Pac more than i like Hatton but thats not the reason why i pick Pac to beat him,i pick Pac to win cause basically hes on another level than Hatton and Hatton doesnt have the style to beat him.

    Pac was hurt to the body by JMM and he is anything but a deadly body puncher. This will be a great fight, Pac is the fav and for good reason.. but please take of your rose tinted specticles..

    Hopkins manages to mix it up. He doesn't just hold, he also headbutts, hits low, and elbows

    Both men clinch and hold but Hatton does it rougher and hits more while doing it. If the ref lets it go on then theres no point in bashing him about it. Hatton wins and thats all that matter to him, theres nothing wrong with that.

    are clinches illegal per se??? Anyway hatton got a point deducted against Flloyd for punching him on the back of the head not clinching....although i do agree that Cortez has got a big head and wants to be known rather than referee a fight fairly.....Cortez favoured the americans in their fights with the brits (Hatton - Mayweather, Calzaghe - Hopkins) but a Brti referee would've been even more bias the other way - IMO

    PS. I also thought Flloyd was far more dirtier in his fight with Hatton than Hatton..... And all credit to Flloyd for being able to do that....even Hatton acknowledged his skilll on the inside and roughhouse tactics of using the elbow into the face

    when bhops is clinching that is he's fight plan. but if it's hatton we know he cannot box that's why he's relying on the clinching and wrestling to beat his opponents.
