Welcome to Fightbeat SRR... Sadly, logic such as this does not often hold true around here bud :doh:
But for some reason, he doesn't. Fucking hell, even the light punching Welter Collazo had Hatton on queer street at the end of their fight. Yet...
With Ottke, at least, I agree entirely. He is and was a complete bum. He has precisely ONE standout win- that being his KO of a 10-0 (i.e...
:bears:
Ottke should fight Calzaghe or Kessler. Right now.
Errr...yes, I should imagine he would. People with more weight generally punch harder. Are you trying to say that he punched like he did...
You can be an elite and a dirty fighter. Hopkins? Holyfield?
No it isn't. Guys at a higher weight ordinarily punch harder. And, as I have said A MILLION TIMES, Hatton is a BIG light-welter- he BALLOONS...
It ISNT just Floyd... :doh: Hatton has fought TWICE at 147 and lost once by KTFO and won the second despite being absolutely out on his feet...
I do think Hatton would fare better at 140, because I think at that weight he has far, far better punch resistance than he does at 147 (the...
A fighter can make whichever match-up he so wishes, but when there is a legitimate, P4P top ten guy IN YOUR OWN WEIGHT CLASS, you should be...
Thank Christ for that- I really was starting to think that I was the only person here who can see what is BLATANTLY obvious... :clap:
Yes I have. Many times. Floyd is much better able to adapt because his main weapons are speed, reflexes and general boxing skills overall....
Floyd is the Linear Welterweight Champion of the World. Hatton has had two fights at 147- winning very, very narrowly against a B-level guy...
All correct. Hatton cannot operate at the highest echelons at 147. If the fight was at 140, I'd still pick Floyd, but Hatton would be a much...
:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
...where he'll be able to NOT fight Cotto. Still. Hurrah! :doh:
This sums things up perfectly IMO :clap:
It matters because it was his ONLY motivation for fighting them. You are trying to say that it wasn't, but there can be no doubt that it was....
I said that Mayweather would probably counter Hatton to death as he came in, but that I HOPED his pressure would be enough to win the fight....
Was he rated higher than Cotto? :dunno:
There is a hell of a lot of hullaballo over Kessler which should be addressed here. The Benn who fought Watson would have likely lost to...
I tend to think that you are right. Taylor will probably feel that his best chance, again, is to come out all guns blazing. Pavlik brings too...
Jesus wept brother REED, you still don't get it, do you? As I'm almost CERTAIN that this thread is in response to numerous other posts you and I...
Some fighter's react differently to a loss... Hatton lost BADLY in his last fight- he got bounced off the turnbuckle FFS! I'd imagine that's...
You're damn fucking right it does :clap: The very fact that I even had to argue this point with anyone shows the level of boxing 'knowledge' of...
My sentiments exactly...
Exactly. A half decent opponent; a perfect opportunity to rebuild some confidence and re-condition/tune-up for the ONLY fight that matters now at...
So, the answer to my question of 'who Witter has beaten who was reasonable' was... :dunno: Exactly Witter has two 'good' wins- Kotelnik...
My post had nothing to do with Hatton. I have done that to death with you and refuse to retread old ground. You seem to have me confused for a...
