    There are no questions about it. If you can take hard shot after hard shot over 10 rounds from one of THE hardest punching LWWs of all time, yet a weaker puncher knocks you down twice in the very first round, it's not exactly rocket science

    Melvin Manhoef recently KO'ed a guy who weighed 100lbs more than him who is known throughout MMA for having a fantastic chin. He's also one of MMA's biggest heavies at close to 300lbs.Mark Hunt has never been KO'ed before. By your reasoning his punch resistance also magically dwindled. The fact that an explosive precise puncher was in the opposite corner had nothing to do with it. :lol:

    Maybe Manny's punching harder than ever with the extra poundage?

    He walks around at 150 something, maybe he's been frying his body down for so long his body is really at it's full power now....,he was no feather fist before ask Marquez, Barrera and Morales.

    'Or' Hattons chin has softened.

    There not ATG's stupid. And it was standup fight between 2 kickboxers. Hunt go KO'ed from Manhoefs fist. Pretty much the same that happened to Hatton vs Pac. So why dont you explain Hunts punch resistance as id like to know why a man 100lbs lighter than him KO'ed him in under a minute when this man is known throughout MMA highlight reels as one of MMA's best chins :good

    1. Mannys a damn hard and accurate puncher even at LWW
    2. Tszyu's one of the hardest punchers Ever at LWW
    3. Ricky in his prime took massive shots from Tszyu
    4. At only 5lbs below JMM (still a ****ing natural SFW took all Manny could throw for 12 rounds and ended up BEATING the guy - tho thats another issue)

    I cant believe im still here debating this **** :patsch

    He has the same sort of record that Bradley had going into the Witter fight.

    Not many boxers make high risk, low reward fights.

    I consider this a good fight in terms of risk and reward. Bradley isn't considered the p4p best and he holds a belt and undefeated record. He also holds a win over Witter so he should be known a little by the British public.

    Totally agree

    It's obvious Hatton's resistance has gone for the exact, and simple, reason you state

    Hatton will go for the pound signs. Bradley brings no money so the fight will not happen. If Hatton goes on then he will have a bum fight like the Lazcano fest and then try his hand at Khan. I doubt anything else will get his interest. Money not glory is Hattons motto.
