He actually did better than most people would have expected and managed to win 2 rounds or so. |

Come on people, think back on the hype of the fight and how Hatton was suppose to maul and bust up Hatton. Remember his body attack was suppose to do a number on PBF and the inside fighting....
Well....

Punch Power: 10 | | Re: The most disappointing letdown performance For me- Witter.
IMO, Hatton never stood a chance, and I didn't think Woods could do enough. Hatton did his best, Woods looked like he lacked confidence, but looked good at times, and was just outboxed. I won't even mention the Rees fight. Witter however, looked like an old amatuer. Horrible, and what makes it worse, the fight was there to be won for him. Hats off to Bradley for winning, and even flooring Witter, but Bradley did just enough to win. It looked like Witter had never heard of boxing. |

And Holyfield was there for the taking really and truthfully Lewis could of stopped Holyfield on at least 2 occasions but he let Holyfield off the hook.

I wanted to see Hatton punk ass get knocked the fukk out. Mayweather and the ring post made that possible

Well....  | The Hatton camp said Hatton was going to maul and bust up Floyd... I don't think anyone actually believed it.
Most outside observers, including myself, viewed that fight as a one-sided mismatch that Floyd would likely dominate. |

Hatton did well against Floyd. I expected him to be KO'd faster.
Rees doesn't belong in world class. He fought his best fight against Kotelnik.
Witter lost to a young - 10 years his junior (no pun) - hungry, unbeaten fighter. Hardly a shock.
