    I probably would have said something worse in Tagalog had those reporters been constantly in my face during all that time :lol:

    Sounds like he was already pissed off before the fight happened.

    Nope. Not at this weight they didn't and Oscar wasn't knocked out and he was hit up for abour 8 rounds, thats what made people think that he DIDN'T have the K.O power...:patsch

    Hatton was 100% bona fide cur before the fight.

    He had the same demenour, and was making the same sort of noises as tomato cans do. Its an impotent, accepting rage. Anyone who has been around low level designated losers know the scowling demenour they have. That was what he reminded me of; he knew deep down he wasn't in any way prepared for a match at this level.

    Nice find. I think their major blunder is underestimating Pac's power. They believed too much that Hatton is the bigger guy and hence is the much stronger guy. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
