Hattons punch resistance is NOT gone!!

exactly,i think relentless is still stinging from the mallignaggi fight.

 

Luiz Collazo - 5ft9 - 72 inch reach, lightest/heaviest fighting weight 145-157lbs
Ricky Hatton 5ft7 - 65 inch reach, lightest/heaviest fighting weight 139-147lbs.

Hatton only ever ventured north of 140lbs twice, and he paid for it twice. Hatton was a natural 140lbs fighter, Collazo is a natural welterweight.

Collazo is, scientifically and empirically, the bigger guy. That's why he's a career welterweight, and not a light-welterweight.

 

This is utter shite. Did you even watch any early Hatton fights? the guy did move his head, and his boxing was actually pretty good too. The first round of the Oliveira fight is on youtube somewhere, go watch it.

Lazcano was not a superior fighter to the guys Hatton was facing prior to Tszyu. He was a journeyman lightweight. Ben Tackie, Vince Phillips, Eamonn Magee and maybe even the battered shell of Ray Oliveira all beat him.

 

There is NO WAY TO QUANTIFY that Tszyu would of knocked him out, if he had a different referee and was able to get some punching room etc, but we can apply our own commonsense and come up with a logical conclusion.


End of the day. Magee,Thaxton,Tszyu,Phillips could all punch. They all hit harder than Lazcano to. Urango just hammered Ngoudjo over 12 and Hatton got by hit to.

Hate away son you obviously have your own agenda, but dont let commonsense get in the way the eh.:good

 

Only one problem there they didnt. Lazcano beat Tackie via a wide UD. The other fights never happened. As for your premise that they would beat them thats opinionated hogwash. When your willing to bring FACTS you come see me.

As for Hattons early career try me nucca. Seriously try me. Show me about this fabled head movement and against which World Class opposition. I mean to actually qoute a relic like Ray as some sort of definitive proof? Honestly thats reaching at its absolute best.

 

Completely semantic. Why dont we debate the price of fish while where at it? :roll: Il deal with what ACTUALLY happened rather than what MAY have happened.

 

People are right in saying that Hatton went into the Mayweather fight thinking he couldn't be hurt, but if people thought Hatton was underestimnating Pacquiao's power then they are deluded.

 

If he respected Pacs power he wouldnt have got knocked out in 2 rounds. Im not entirely sure what the Team Hatton gameplan was but if it was wade forward and maul Pac then his entire team were pretty stupid.

 

"The obvious diffrence here is Kostya DID NOT land cleanly nor often on Hatton. If he did Hatton would have been KO'ed"

:nut

 

Very true.

Hatton has taken big punches like any boxer, but his "chin" has never filled me with confidence.

 

Ricky doesn't have a glass jaw nor a granite chin it's hard to tell because when he sees punches coming he takes them pretty good and when he lunges
in looking to clinch

 

Totally agree
