I just performed a styles analysis on Joshua vs Parker

Hatton was horrible to watch

 

Agreed (not about the beard though). I always hated Hatton, but he was a really solid world class (maybe even elite) fighter. Was one of the few who picked him against Tszyu

 

World class beard? Based on what? The bombs he absorbed from Paulie Malignaggi?

He was always a horrible looking technician against anybody ranked in the top 20

 

Exactly

Irish is remembering his fights against bums on the way up

 

Hatton walked onto one.

He was up in a flash.

What would you say?

Get KTFO in 2 rounds by Tszyu = Average chin. Beat Tszyu after taking multiple bombs = Average chin.

Come on.

 

Based on not getting knocked out in 2 rounds like Zab Judah, who never got sparked again.

 

He didn't take "multiple bombs" against Tszyu

 

Knowing you, it makes sense why you like Hatton so much



Dude glows in the dark.

 

He wasn’t just dropped by Magee he was wobbled badly on his feet.

 

Mate..........you'd offer us a MM of Young Stribling vs Old Stribling and work Floyd into it somehow.

Hatton had big fights and unified the division and didn't get put to sleep by the same right hand that Judah did.

Judah was never remembered as "Chinny" by anyone.

 

Magee went on to fight as high as 154, guy was a big Southpaw with plenty of brains and Hatton walked onto one.

It happens.

Cotto was dropped by Torres....shit happens.

 

Nobody thinks cotto had a particularly good chin

 

you dont take 12 rounds worth of bombs from SAUL ALVAREZ, unless your beard is good!

 

"SAUL ALVAREZ!?!?!? WHERE??? WHERE???? PLEASE TURN ON THE LIGHTS!!!"

 

My wife and I just watched an episode of "Black Mirror" with this chap last night... good actor

 

Was that the one with the singing competition? Was pretty good.

 

I remember Hatton being hurt by Jason Rowlands as well, might have been a body shot though.

 

Yup
