Should Hatton license be revoked 4 his fighting style?

Actually, you could argue that both Hatton and Mayweather employ styles that work best for them in winning fights.
Sure, you may not like it, but wouldn't it be foolish for PBF to go out and try and brawl with someone like Cotto or Hatton.
Similarly, would it make sense for Hatton to try and box with Floyd when his best chance of winning would come from him holding and mauling Mayweather.

 

Good answer!

 

Wrong answer!

There's this thing called cutting off the ring. If guys would learn it, they'd prevent runners who pot shot.

 

you cant cut someone off who you cant catch, you should do whatever legally possible to get the win and hatton holding and punching is legal and so is pbf running.

Hatton would more than likely lose to pbf but will be remebered as a fighter who put himself on the line to win each and every fight taking lots of punishment doing so while pbf will be rembered as a great boxer who ran and ran and ran on his way to a fortune.

 

all i will say anymore is that if Jim Braddock got his license revoked for the same style has Ricky Hatton yet nothing happens to Hatton its bad news for us the fans.

all they have to do is revoke' Hattons license like Braddock's and what happened after Jimmy got his taken away from him. he actually started letting his hands go and punch's and didnt need to clinch to get by.

all i will say is im sick to death of fights like

Taylor vs Spinks or anyone
PBF vs ODH or anyone
Hatton Vs Urango or anyone lately

even Winky Wright wants me to fall to sleep.

The last few fights ive watched ive found myself helling at the TV out loud just F-ING throw some punch's or just let your hands go.

 

I enjoyed the fight...I dont enjoy Ruiz fights.....So i think its fine

 

I completely agree. Hatton is always working the inside it's how he fights. His opponents are aware of it and can never deal with it. He is always throwing punches whilst inside, whether brutal uppercuts (see the Kostya fight), or eye popping bodyshots (see any fight of Hatton's).

The only times that I agree his holding was excessive was in the Collazo and Urango fights. Against Collazo he was clearly not at his best and hung on to avoid being KO'd in the final round (although he was still trying to get some shots off), and against Urango he ditched his jab and move style that worked for the first half of the fight and became embroiled in a clinch fest with the Incredible Hulk!!! I didn't like these instances because there was no volume of work from Hatton.

Last night there was a huge volume of work, nothing illegal at all. Castillo was at it as well. View the Corrales - Castillo fights and see how much the refs have to intervene when the guys go in close. When that style is being used then holding, smothering is bound to occur.

 

Of course he shouldn't have his license revoked. If he is breaking any rules it is the refs responsability to act upon it.

 

This is hilarious. Considering boxing is one of the manliest sports around, the fans sure are ****ing cry babies.

 

Yea, his style of beating the **** out of people should be banned, this great sport should be reduced to playing tag and running, no physical contact and no punching with the intent to hurt. Go cry some more.

 

yeah well some of us true fans want to see two guys fight not hug each other to death.

the Ricky Hatton i saw against Phillips was a beast a true throwback type guy.
the fighter that is now known as the Manchester Mexican or whatever fights more like John Ruiz everytime i watch him.

It is more frustrating than ever with them having to much pressure on them to win because one loss could mean the end of his career.
im frustrated because i dont want to pay money to watch the fights we get these days.
the best fight ive seen so far this year was Zab Judah and Miguel Cotto and why was it good because both men are'nt affraid of that loss in there record.

you can call me a sook but i laugh straight back at you for paying money to watch these dud fights that HBO keep puting together.

 

Yes he should have his license revoked, he's a cheater and ALWAYS holds and hits

 

Only if you revoke Ali's, Whitaker's, and Leonard's. Hatton's no John Ruiz.

 

Revoke his license? Are you that ****in stupid?

 

Yea, he hugged JLC right out of the fight in less than 12 minutes. Hugs did it, it was ****ing hugs that ruined one of the toughest boxers alive liver to the point that he couldn't continue on, getting counted out for the first time in 64 fights over 17 years, hugs, it was ****ing hugs.

Honestly open you mind, you have it in your head that he is John Ruiz so you refuse to notice the fact that he is inflicting huge damage on the inside.

He just stopped a man with one Bodyshot that has never been counted out in his entire carreer, including two wars with one of the biggest pfp punchers at the time.

Hatton comes to hurt you in every way he can think of.
