If any fight should've gotten stopped, it should've been the Kirkland vs Vera fight. It was stopped before the distance but it should've been stopped WAY EARLIER than that!

I thought Malignaggi would fight his heart out like he did Cotto, he convinced me he was going to go all out and pressure Hatton so I am disappointed with his performance. He had no excuses though and praised Hatton and I agree with him that he is too good for a stoppage like that.
Ricky fought a good fight and I saw some slight improvements, mostly in the pace he fought, he wasted no energy and tried to make every punch count.
All I can say is I hope Manny beats Oscar. Ricky loses VS Oscar and a Manny Ricky fight would be much better to watch.
Well done Ricky:drinker:
Totally agree with that. He was getting hit hard a lot. That's dangerous territory right there.Quote:

You should worry about the orange coloured middle aged man first!! ;DQuote:

So do I, without taking too much punishment. Pacman VS Hitman will be a better fight, more even fight and a more significant fight.Quote:

If PAC does beat DLH, then he should stay at welterweight, cause we all know Hatton isn't that good at welterweight. :rolleyes: (yah right)Quote:

It wasn't that he didn't fight to win, it was that he couldn't win, hence the spoiling tactics. Hatton has serious power from the lefts he throws. Paullie didn't know what happened - he'd gone. Hatton did a good job on him.
To me a boxer that doesn't fight to win, spoils from the start.
Anyway, great performance by Hatton. Questions have been answered in the best way possible.
