    Moving his head wasn't going to help Hatton, and I LAUGHED when Mayweather Sr told him to do that in between rounds. If you think that head movement and jabbing was going to change anything you need your ****ing head examined. Hatton's only chance to was to COLLAPSE ALL THE WAY IN and fight on the inside. Myself and quite a few others said this before the fight. HELLO?

    If you check out the second knockdown in the 1st round, you can clearly see that Ricky was heading for the ringpost but managed to avoid it. I reckon that was one of the new skills that Daddy Mayweather taught him.

    Mayweather Snr was trying to make Hatton into a boxer/brawler like Tyson, but what Ricky has proven is that he has little skill, and tries to overcome that through aggression, toughness, and cheating. Holding and hitting just doesn't work, it makes him overrated. His win against Tszyu was also overrated because the ref allowed Ricky to get away with holding and hitting.

    Does anybody really believe Senior trained Hatton to bum rush Pac? I'd be embarrassed, and I'd tell the fighter never to show me his face again.

    There's some truth to this. I was embarrassed by Hatton and I hate the guy. But, with regard to F.M. Snr, you can't go claiming fighters wins as own your coaching wins and then blame only them when they lose. Hopefully next time he'll shut the **** up and realize that boxing is not fought from the stool.

    What is it with you and the Mayweather's? You not only hug the nuts of his son, you show irrational loyalty to the old man! :bbb
