    He head butts and holds as of recent. B/c he is an older fighter that has one good arm and he does not even use his left hand anymore but to hold. I am not biased. He falls in that category. Hatton does not tuck his chin in and go shoulder to shoulder and do work. NO. He pushes and clinches and loads up on a leaping hard hook after the ref breaks or even hits on the break. He does not do much on the inside. Its just the other guy gets frustrated and just gets too focused on getting there gloves freed. I have studied Hattons inside work, he is a very very smart fighter and he has it down to a science how to hold then act as if the other guy is the one holding. That sneaky Hatton :(

    Vic, that is my boy. He is the most arrogant fighter in the sport. :lol: Even after he was knocked out and when he woke up and still was kind of knocked out he was still arrogant and talking ****.

    Well, Vic Drakulich was the only ref to have taken points away from Floyd for sticking his left forearm/elbow on somebody else's neck ( JLC btw), as far as I know, and that can be a good thing for Hatton. Actually Ricky already stated that the choice of the ref is going to play a crucial role in the outcome, if that already says something about less-clean tactics about to be implemented from both sides...

    I dont care who the ref is as long as they dont let hatton hold and hit because that is not fighting on the inside.

    :lol: We all know you dont. As everybody in boxing says Hatton holds and ties up not one but both arms and tries to get shots off under the ribs once your arms are all locked. That is not infighting. That is the same **** Ruiz was crucified for. Hatton is little ruiz. You hold to get out of trouble, not to push and shove and grapple and wrestle.

    How can he tie up both his opponents arms and then get shots off? He works inside, moves his opponent about until the openings present themselves. Infighting....

    That is not working. And yes when he is inside he ties up both guys arms and holds and does not work. Except on the break, the rest is wrestling and not boxing. That is not infighting.

    I will break it down for you b/c you are SLOW. Ok, corky. Hatton lunges with a punch mainly the left hook to the head or ribs. FALLS in and holds in hugging fashion.(if you hug a boxer you have both of his arms tied up) when that said boxer tries to get shots off and actually fight hatton does his arm bars.Were he hooks under the left lead arm with his right hand then proceeds to use his left hand and legs to push a guy back against the ropes once the guy is tied up hatton releases his left from pushing back and tries to get off left hooks if the opporutnity presents itself. He lets off two and maybe one to the head then if he gets a guy hurt he lets go of the and maybe throws a combo with an overhand right then immediately holds again after landing his combo. And repeat.

    The Rules of Boxing say Hatton's idea of infighting is illegal......and you support that.

    :-(
