Hatton's highlights against Mayweather

You could very well be right. I confess I saw that fight only once on cable when it happened. I do recall Hatton looked like he was gonna crumble in that last round, perhaps that tainted my opinion in an otherwise tough competitive fight....that frankly wasn't expected to be THAT difficult.

 

In spite of the ending, that fight was not a blowout. Hatton gave as good as he got for the first 8 rounds. The refereeing by Cortez was shamefully biased, and, gave Floyd some clear advantages. (Possibly karma for Hatton who got away with murder against Tszyu).

 

No he was not at all stunned, he merely slipped due to Hatton’s bull rushing.

 

Like I said Floyd outclassed him in every facet of the game. Hatton was never the same again as Floyd took his soul.

 

You are entitled to your opinion however wrong it is which comes across as trying to justify some success you claimed Hatton had in the fight. I strongly disagree! He tried to bring the heat as he normally did but it was very clear right from the beginning there was a genuine wide gulf in class and skills between both guys. On the inside which was crucial to Hatton achieving success in this fight Floyd ****ed him up showing he had the know how to deal with Hatton’s bull rushing tactics proving he was the superior inside fighter. The jab to body in particular and right hands to the body messed Hatton up setting him up for the knockout. The truth is Floyd beat the **** out of Hatton and Hatton was ready made to order.

 

No he did not at all. It was like a man and boy beat down.

 

Basically this.

Cortez did break them up too quickly for my liking in the early going. When he did allow more fighting in the clinches, Floyd got the better of it anyway.

Floyd used his own rough tactics up close, elbows and forearms, open gloves, maybe his head a little, and constantly dug in right hands to the body. He stunned Hatton in the 4th with a 3 punch combination to the head, which was again set up by the right hand to the body.

Hatton made Floyd work harder than usual, but was clearly eating most of the clean shots throughout the fight rather than giving them.

 

I would just like to point out how cringe worthy your posts are in this thread.

Dude just wants to discuss Hatton's moments which are there, he took the time to make a damn video. For some reason this makes you so insecure you want to keep shutting it down and insisting this was some type of Tyson vs Spinks one sided massacre...which it wasn't.

 

Plenty of Floyd's fights look competitive for the first four rounds - then he kicks on and its a festival of dominance.

 

Like I said Floyd had his own tricks on the inside. Hatton who is rough and dirty on the inside was complaining after the fight about how Floyd was manhandling him on the inside. It was laughable.
