no theres no joke about hatton fighting like ruiz, they are both equally boring, i was being sarcastic about not knowing who guys like thaxton and maggee were, most people here except for brits wont know who they are either.
He doesn't fight like Ruiz at all. I am sure you are basing your opinion entirely on the Urango fight, which was admittedly full of holding. I invite you to watch the other fights in Hatton's career and re-evaluate, before making further ridiculous statements. Capische?
Malignaggi couldn't look half decent fighting Herman Ngoudjo or Lovemore Ndou, how's he supposed to fare with a genuine half decent fighter!!!
Why does everybody keep saying Paulie will not have the power to keep Hatton off him? Floyd does not have power. Boxing combined with strategic clinching is the recipie.
Floyd has very underrated power, he stunned DLH, he stopped Corrales, Gatti and has FAR more power than Paulie.
Oh who gives a ****. Every body knows Hatton 'can box'. 'Can box' being defined as 'understands the fundamentals of boxing and can execute the techniques at a sound standard'. The fact is, when the going gets tough, he holds.
Garbage. Floyds power is rightly rated as weak. Anyone will 'stunn' you if they hit you with a flush right cross when youre running in. He stopped Corrales and Gatti with 140 unanswered punches. Not 1. Next.
