    Watch it again.

    I think either the 7th or 8th got scored a 10 - 8 round because the beating was so much.

    Hatton landed three times as many punches in that fight.

    :good Ricky said he was never hurt in the Collazo fight afterwards...so I don't think you can really listen to his nonsense. He got his ass beat and was stopped by Mayweather...He may not think the fight was tougher but his brain did. It shut down after the abuse he took and he was counted out. That alone makes the fight tougher, because he couldn't even finish the fight...

    Mayweather was not only PHYSICALLY tougher, but he was obviously MENTALLY tougher than all 43 previous fights combined (as evident by the huge cold sores, which are brought on by mental stress).

    It's Hatton's FIRST loss. Sometimes their hard to take, especially for a hyped up fighter.
