Hatton learned NOTHING from the Mayweather fight

Almost knocked out? **** did you only watch the 15 seconds that Hatton was mildly hurt, and fail to notice the other 35 minutes and 45 seconds of beatdown?

 

He swings that left hook and got countered by Lazcano I think in the 10th, LAzcano didnt have power so he only slightly stunned Hatton. He swong that same left hook against Mayweather and got droped.

 

Still needs more fights to adapt and apply new methods, this is his first fight after a brutal KO, don't expect supreme improvements too soon.

 

Needs to work on defense, badly.

 

I'd take URANGO by KO in a rematch ...

 

i thought hatton put in an exciting performance and there was times when hatton looked lik the hatton off old with his firy and intensive work

 

Come on guys, lets get ****ing serious, Hatton is NEVER going to improve his defence

He always ****in fought like this and he always will, so you might as well take him as he is

 

Pretty much.

It brought him to the dance, he'll live and die by that sort of fight. Even if he learns to get better defensively, he'll abandon all that the first time he gets hit clean.

 

It takes some time to fully incorporate changes to your game, so I will give Ricky the benefit of the doubt. I think this fight was to test and see if he still has what it takes to get in that ring and beat a live opponent.

 

He needs a new trainer, quick! I don't want him to get rid of Billy but he is a one trick pony at the moment (he is actually losing parts of his game), he needs a lot of work.

Get Uncky Rodge in!

 

I agree. he needs a ref to show him defense. I don't ever expect Hatton to be a boxer, he is a brawler/mauler, but learning defense will take him higher.

 

I was gonna make this very same post. Hatton got countered at least 4 times with the very same counter punch in his fight with Mayweather before eventually getting KO'd. He seemingly has no ring smarts. You can see his hooks coming a mile a way, because he dips his shoulder really low and leaps when he throws it. It's the very punch he used to KO Maussa, and I guess he's foolish enough to believe it's going to work against every other fighter. Lazcano couldn't miss with his hook tonight, and if he had any true power at 140, Hatton would have been KO'd again in similar fashion.

 

Nice one Nostrodamus but you do realise that shoes must be laced for a fight to continue?
At that moment, Juan looked much moe in need of a rest than Ricky and I bet he was ****ing very chuffed he got one.

What about Juan though?! What a ****ing character!
