The fight wasn't "easy"....but neither was it THAT hard from what I saw. PBF stuck to his plan, adapted enough....and it seemed to go exactly as...
:lol: He warned Ricky throughout the fight for hitting behind the head and on the back, and for holding (though PBF initiated alot of that...
Yep. Excellent defense...and pinpoint counters and short shots inside. He was winning rounds even when "letting Hatton tire himself."
Unfortunately, yes. :lol: If you watch close - Mayweather did what Hatton does better than Hatton does. He was in many ways brilliant. He...
Come on, now. I dislike Mayweather with quite a bit of passion. But he outplayed Hatton at his own game...roughed him up inside, and it was...
NO Hatton fan should be complaining about ANY elbows from anyone. :nono:
After 8 rounds Manny finally says "Hatton isn't landing much clean"... :doh:
He did...but he still won the 1st and 3rd. You have to watch....Floyd is rendering Hatton close to useless inside....elbows, gloves, turning his...
Hatton is getting HANDLED. Even in the first 3 rounds. You guys have to watch CLOSE. And I really dislike Mayweather.
3 wasn't....clear for Mayweather.
Point is...you don't use your elbows or push off the clinch if you aren't being illegally held in the first place, most times. :nono: Both...
GREAT post. :clap: Sanity in the thread.

:lol: Exactly. Staredowns/stare-offs I understand....but why do they have to be literally nose-to-nose with their entire bodies touching? I...
Don't start the bandwagon yet....but I have to admit I was quite impressed when I saw the result.
Mayweather by decision, 8-4. I think he is going to look/be stronger than many expect on the inside when needed and will be able to handle and...
Who is this pansy who's never laced 'em up?
I have you on ignore, Gladys. I can't see that.
Yup. It's important to remember, though, that Hatton had much more time to acclimate and "grow into" 147 this time around vs. with Collazo....
Zip it, Mabel.
True...glass half-full or half-empty... :lol:
Floyd looks like he's holding one in. :lol:
If there's one thing PBF has NEVER done, it's sacrifice his game plan and what it takes to win in HIS MIND to let emotions get the better of him....
Don't bet on it.
Yup. Both men fight similarly, but you have to favor Chavez at 140 for this reason...rest of your post is very good as well.
Agreed.
KNOCK IT OFF, ALL OF YOU. NOW.
No. Rules are clear, and it stops here now, or threads get closed and people go on vacation. We should NOT be instigating and inflaming in GD...
Quintana can punch hard....and I'm smelling "upset" here.
