    I know, its such a joke.:laughing:

    These Floyd haters/Hatton groupies will come up with anything at this point. Are they forgeting that Floyd once fought at 130, and 135? If anything, HATTON is the naturally bigger man. Ricky if he was IN-SHAPE between fights walks around at probably about 165(but because he eats too goddamn much he walks around at more than that). Whereas Floyd walks around between fights at probably around 150. Yet Floyd is the bigger man?:lol:

    Floyd is able to fight at 147 more effectively than Hatton because Floyd is BETTER than Hatton, period. But that doesnt make Floyd a natural welterweight.

    it wouldnt make a difference..... given that either way he'd way the exact same on the night

    he was better off in this fight because he didnt have to melt all the way down to 140

    this was exactly the same Hatton as at 140...against a fighter that could easily make 140 as well

    Brilliant is the exact word to describe Floyd tonight. He did pretty much everything. Lead right hands and left hooks. Majority of the fight was spent in close quarters and tagging Ricky with his accurate shots. One round he decides to go to the body (round 8 I believe). Rounds previous to the knockout (round 9 onwards), he uses movement and snaps Ricky's head back with the jab.

    He was pretty using multiple styles to beat Hatton tonight. He could have stuck with one, but he's so versatile he was just using everything, and eventually Ricky just took to much punishment.

    Sheesh, you are seeing ghosts man. It is like every comment that doesn't mock Hatton is an excuse for his loss. Your big boy won, don't be insecure about it.

    Now, Hatton is shorter than Floyd and at the weigh-in he did weigh less, plus Floyd has fought longer in the welterweight division. This would NOT be the case against many other welterweights that Floyd faces in the future (if he fights on) and that is all I said. A bigger and stronger guy who fights the way Hatton did could give him trouble.

    Floyd has already beat much better fighters then Vicky. Hes proven himself already. Usually i don't like P4P guys fighting scrubs but Hatton talked so much shit and fought such low comp that i was happy this fight was made, just to see him get his ass handed to him.

    Cotto has underated speed himself and is a very accurate puncher with power. He would make the fight at least very competitive.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    De La Hoya once fought at 130,......? and then, he couldn't make the weight anymore, just like Fraud couldn't make 130 - 135 anymore, and virtually had to pull a Chico Corrales by moving up a couple of divisions in quick succession to take the strain off his body. It was odd, to see Castillo for example, with a superior reach, height, and build/thickness labelled the "smaller" man against Hatton all because he started his career in a lower division, and now once again, even though Fraud retains the same physical advantages that Castillo did, he aswell is labelled the smaller fighter? :notallthere: ...WTF?... it's crystal clear to the eyes, who's naturally larger at thier FIT weights, even Fraud said to Hatton "Your too small" during a staredown, :crafty: now why on earth would he say that ay?,...the reason the 'walk around' weight is :crafty: just your typical Fraud-groupie stunt is because one of them, (Fraud) keeps in constant shape, while the other evidently bloats up into a fat beer-drinking toad with 3 chins, and you know it, everyone else knows it, so I wonder if your just spoiling yourself with a bit of extra monotical pleasure by passionately arguing the contrary :crafty:.
    Pile Hatton's birthday suit on Fraud's 5"9,..7+ inch muscular frame and I bet I know who weighs more. :rolleyes: Bernard Hopkins is another one who wears this quasi -"smaller man" moniker wherever he roams, like Light-heavyweight for example, he's actually larger than almost ALL the top supermiddleweights, Librado Andrade...'might' be bigger, I guess? maybe :dunno: ?...but if you groupies need any more convenience, go ahead and make it up in this safe pro-Fraud nest.

    I'd let them talk. It hasn't been easy for them this past 6 years.

    Exactly. Where is all this "manhandling" some folks are seeing? :dunno:

    Mayweather proved stronger and more effective in the clinches, won most of those battles in terms of connected/clean punches - and roughed Ricky up with shoulders, arms, elbows and gloves, even when PBF was up against the ropes.

    Hatton made it fun and won some rounds - but Castillo "manhandled" Floyd much more and more competitively, IMHO.

    Peace.

    :dunno:

    Ricky is a true fighter, he said he wanted to fight the best and he did. Not like other guys that say they want certain fights but the ask for a gazillion dollars and Leprochran. :doh:

    Fraud's style, has always been full of illegal impliments, but it's not clinching so it's ok, if Fraud was cut over the eye by an elbow or had his throat damaged by a forearm to the neck and went down for the count rasping, I'd dare say his groupies would want the rules of boxing reinstalled again.

    "Floyd entered the ring looking like Russell Crowe...ended up fighting like Sheryl Crow"

    "You've seen more action in these 4 rounds than you've seen value for money in Floyd's entire career, I'll just put it like that"


    Floyd KO 10 Hatton!

    no more needs to be said. :cool:

    No doubt.. you know.. Hatton really is a bitch.. he talked all this shit on Floyd and then trys to flip it to make Floyd out to be the villian. Hatton talked MORE than his share of shit and did it like a royal asshole and he got what he had comin..

    I love that some of these Euro's though Hatton was too tough:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    He got punked and KO'd by someone he was going on and on about that "pitty-pats" :lol:

    He won rounds 1 and 2 too

    floyd hardly landed in rounds 1 and 2 and hatton was the aggressor during those 2 rounds. Floyd did nothing in rounds 1 and 2 except for maybe 3 punches that landed flush.

    Hatton wanted to fight the "best" he never denied the fact the Floyd was the best he said it many times thats why he wanted the fight not for the MONEY or anything...

    He got the fight and Money proved he's the best..

    Why cant you floyd lovers get off his bell end and give credit where it is due.
