    I've heard from Hatton's fans the fallowing two annoying myths about the fight:

    1. Only Floyd was using forearms. Ricky was clean as the purest mountain top snow. Wrong:

    2. Ricky was never warned about hitting in the back of the head before the point deduction. Wrong:

    Keep in mind this is only from the first round. I'm not saying that Floyd was totally clean, but Ricky wasn't a saint either. I could go on. Here's a bonus. PBS falling backwards after a jab:

    I also got asked to write a tutorial on making animated gifs. Anyone interested?

    I can't see that jab actually landing...did he only cuff PBF with it, or did he miss completey and PBF just tripped/lost his balance while moving away?

    I don't actually think it landed. It's a weird camera angle and it wasn't repeated so I'm not 100% sure.

    . . . and a lot of ****tards in here are giving the ref a lot of trashing for being too involved. :D

    . . . do these people ever imagined what this fight could have turned into if the ref wasn't on his toes?

    :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    its kind of a mix between a jab and a lead left hook and it definately lands on the side of Floyd's head but not very cleanly.

    How did you work that out, if you don't mind me asking? From the look of the gif the punch goes right past his face...did you see the shot from a clearer angle, or did you zoom in or something?

    That jab completely missed the target. A case of the leather rubbing against PBF's ear. :D

    It's all in the feet. Look at the feet. The punch didn't connect, Floyd just tripped backwards because his left foot got tangled with Rick's.

    EDIT: Oops, I didn't see Symphenyceo's post (he's on my ignore list but I saw the quote) and he said the same thing.

    at first i thought it was a mix between a jab and a hook, where the inside part of the glove is hitting the side of Floyd's head. After looking more closely, it looks like just a miss. Which is funny cause Floyd didn't even move.

    Whatever it was Floyd didn't see it and it help set him totally off balance.

    I'm pretty sure that Hatton was attempting that exact same half-hook-half-jab when Mayweather countered him and floored him. He shouldn't have used it so much.

    I agree. Also putting someon on your ignore list is sorta gay. Mentioining that someone is on the list in a post, is flaming gay.

    I want to make a gif out of my last fight, do you know how to do it? It will be in DVD format.
