Hatton looks most impressive when fighting C fighters & when he's doing 15 rounds on the body bag with Graham. That should tell you something. This is not a dig at Hatton but people who think he is fighting with a different style are wrong. It's just that his style isn't as effective against "live" opposition. Thats not to say it doesn't work but to suggest he has some other style to revert back to is laughable because he doesn't.
Depends. if he goes back to that level of oppostion then he will go back to that style. As long as he is fighting top guys he can not get away with fighting like that.
hes a classy guy in defeat,,a solid human being,he steps up to the plate to fight abroad and to fight the best and is lambasted for it,,hes my favourite boxer today,theres not a guy on the planet who can command fan worship and worldwide appeal like hatton,leave the flex wheeler clones and creatine worshippers to there opinions and we will stick to ours,,peace.
So do you think it's better to let people incorrectly discuss Hatton going back to some mysterious "other" style? He has one style only & it's effectiveness is directly corrolated to his level of opposition.
Depends what your definition of classy is really. Ridiculing someone for having a better body than you doesn't exactly smack of class though.
i put it to you,,that hopkins is overrated with a record built on fighting smaller guys,,but hey thats off topic,ricky will be back,hopkins wont,peace.
I put it to you that you are some lame alias poster that I can no longer be bothered to converse with. Peace.
yap and hopkins is the height of integrity in and out of the ring!listen i cant take lessons in morality from someone who is clearly a massive hopkins fan,
No, plain and simple fact is that his 'style' pre kostya was so simply because his opposition was cack and he was allowed to box like that, when in with kostya he had to hold or be hit basically, and its the same story from then on, if hatton tries to box ANYONE top level fairly, he will be laid out.
