In Retrospect Floyd Vs Hatton Was Epic...

That is PBF. He will study you for some rounds like he did with Zab and then he breaks you down, but I did not expect the KO or the post to help him with the KO. I'm sorry, but that **** was funny how he bounced off the post. Hatton is a good guy and he knows how to laugh at himself. He is a prankster so I am sure he thought it was funny months later.

 

It was a great event and a good fight. Floyd schooled him and that check hook was beautiful.

 

Great event, I think the fight was competetive although Mayweather seemed to be in control most of the time. Anyway as the TS said a fight don't have to be that competetive to be great and epic, and this fight gave alot, Mayweather made a statement, Hatton went out in a honerable way, and there wasn't any allegations of steroids or loaded gloves, and no big controversy to me...

 

spot on, even as a Hatton fan, I said to my brother afterwards "floyd is just the ****ing master".

I bought the fight on dvd mainly because cos I thought it was a great performance by Floyd and I still enjoy watching it despite the outcome.

 

It was a great build-up and not a bad fight up till the 6th. Other great build-up's i remember were Benn-Eubank 1 and Tyson-Lewis...they were quality!!!

 

It was the biggest build up to a fight since Tyson v Lewis. And if Hatton takes on JMM and wins. Don't rule out it happening again.

 

^^^^^

 

Very good promotion for the build up to the fight thanks for Floyd and Ricks outgoing and opposite personalities. Floyd won which is what I thought....but in reality Ricky did FAAAAAAAAAR better than I gave him credit for . He made it a very good fight and Floyd was able to win.....but Floyd was roughed up in that one.

 

It wasn't a mismatch like people make it out to be. Ricky made into a good fight, he could have been Marquez and just stand there and get his ass kicked and made it into a boring fight, but Hatton won a few rounds and it was close until around the 6th round then Floyd took over.

 

It lived up to my expectations because Ricky put on a good performance had some success and gave it every thing he had....and floyd actually had to try.

 

made good money on that fight. It was big. Noone can build his opponent's fanbase quite like Mayweather.

 

I gained new respect for Ricky after that performance against a guy he shouldn't have been in there with.....I felt Floyd would humiliate Hatton in front of his home town and maybe that's why he faught up to Floyd's level that night. I don't know....all I know is the fight should have looked similar to JMM vs Floyd yet it was more like much of the 1st JLC vs Floyd fight.
