I thought Hatton relentless pressure would give PBF fits and it did...for about 2 minutes of the fight. For all his flashy **** talking aside PBF is in my opinion a million miles above anyone in the world as far as boxing talents is concerned. You could see PBF wanting to land the left hook all night as Hatton rushed in. Sweet Knock down baby :happy:happy:happy PBF is building a resume to become one of the greatest EVER boxers
His definately unquestionably at the top of the heap. As far as the ducking Cotto bull**** that will probably hear, it just never ends does it? Btw, Hatton bang head first into the corner, Pretty crazy..
Yeh he is definitely something special. And Ive never seen a boxer trouble mayweather as much as hatton did. Gotta say the Lacy Fight was a massive disappoinment. Did anyone else notice how Manfredo was trying to mimic Calzaghes game for the 1st few rounds but didint work for him
Yeah we will hear PBF ducking Cotto :--( If they really loved Cotto they would not be putting him in there with PBF for another 3/4 yrs when PBF might start to slow down. Yeah that was one nasty Knock Down for the KO highlight reel. Bang! tiiiiiiiiimmmmmmber, plonk stright onto the corner :shock:
As Stiflers Mum would say Mundine would come into the ring juggling fireballs and still beat Lacy. Manfredo had no power to trouble Lacy and his good chin. Manfredo always looks half sure of himself when fighting.
I think it was more that Hatton isn't that good, he looked very one-dimensional in there, reminded me abit of the Mundine Green fight where everyone underestimated Mundines toughness and thought Green would walk straight through him. Green and Hatton both fought like they believed it aswell. Of course Mayweather and Mundine are on different levels but you get my point.
PBF is a gifted man. Those punches, we're so used to seeing slow mos, but in real time, damn they're just so quick! Over in not even a second. Not to take away from PBF's win. He woulda got it anyway but I think the ref had a tougher night than some of the fighters on the undercard. He should have let them go and showed a lot of bias I think and it came across as unprofessional. IN this match it didn't matter, but in others it might and that's pretty ****ed. Lacy was doing well, then he thought he hurt Manfredo but he just knocked him over and when the ref finished his count Lacy puffed out. Lacy needs to learn patience and to slowly break people down to get KO's and wins. Not jumping on people full on. Ponce De Leon.... well... that fight was like watchin 14 year old first year amateurs go at it. He is one slick boxer away from a serious ass kicking.
PBF is too damn good, but I thought that before the fight, Ricky's good but more of a one hit wonder, it'll be a cold day in hell before I ever say he's Tszyus' equal :hey
Entertaining fight. I nearly glassed the tv though when the signal was lost for 2 rounds. :fire The fight went pretty much the way I thought it would. Floyd is miles ahead of Hatton as a boxer and he proved that today. I thought he'd win by either a wide UD or a late stoppage, but I didn't think he'd knock him down like he did. I thought the stoppage would be by cuts or one where the ref says he's had too much. I didn't think Hatton would hit the canvas like he did.
I needed to get a fight right. I was very wrong with the Calzaghe/Kessler fight. Where'd you watch it at Dekks?
