Hatton/Floyd = F* what a boring fight...!

I'm just rewatching this for actually the first time since watching it on the night.. I can't believe how boring it is... It was the same recipe of what Hopkins used to win a lot of fights... Floyd used his reach to hit Hatton whenever he was just outside range. Whenever he got a 1/4 of an inch INSIDE range, he would dive forward with his head down and hug him... It's a type of fighting I can't stand!! Some of Floyd other fights were tactical genius and just a pleasure to watch him school opponents the way he did... But the tactic of dive and hug as soon as a fighter gets in range to punch, it's ugly and boring.. If you've got skill outside that reach zone of the other oppnent, you'll win fights that way.. But it's sad to watch..

And personally Floyd has to much game to let Pac win... Even if it took trying to potshot Pac on the outside, and hug him anytime he got close.. It's that sort of gritty arsenal that would ensure a Floyd win... Pac would try to be a warrior about it, but you can't hit someone who has both arms around you... And Floyd just has to many ways of not being hit, and getting under fighters skin, and coming out a point on top of too many rounds..

At least that's what i've garnished from the ugly as hell Hatton fight.. And if a ref doesn't warn or deduct points for constant ducking down and hugging repeatedly, you'll always get an ugly fight like that..

(And on a personal note that was debated to death earlier so I won't go into it again,,, whenever the fighters got close and Hatton had a chance at hitting, Cortez would jump the fuck in and literally rip Hatton's free punching hand away to seperate them... Whenever Floyd grabbed and Hatton had no chance, he'd let the hold go on.... He is a shit inconcistent referee i'll say that much)

That's why I don't like the style of Floyd. He's afraid to get hit. That's the difference between being a great fighter and just being a good fighter.


Mayweather is good but doesn't deserve to be called one of the greats.IMO.


Btw, he was telling people before the fight that he will fight Hatton all the way. :-X Most probably he means hugging and using his elbow.:rolleyes:

Oh yes, the elbow in Hattons face for probably about 8 minutes of the whole fight..


Cortez can warn all he wants, but until he takes a point off, it's okay to do... It's one thing for a fighter to use those tactics, and it can be ugly.. And in the second fight Hatton wasn't exactly pretty himself... But if something like that is going on and the Ref doesn't stop it, then the ref is responsible...

I've only watched the full fight twice. Once live and again like 6 months ago, it's not pure excitement lets say.

I had PBF up 3-2 after 5 rounds. Joe Fucktez deducted a point in the 6th (I'm pretty sure it was the 6th) and then Hatton lost it, simple as :D Ah well. What I don't know is how PBF can still can himself pretty after that night ? He should join the MMA with all the shit he done that night.

He will be KOed in less than 2 minutes if he fights in the MMA. FACT.:cool:

Yeah that's another point as well.. After that point deduction which was pretty light considering how the rest of the fight was playing out, and on replay Hatton barely even touched him (his hand bounced off the top rope), but yeah after that point Hatton kind of got impatient and went of his game plan a bit. Rushed things, tired himself out a bit more mentally and physically than he was doing in the first half, and let Floyd get the better of him..

I think he did well mostly and the fight was there to be won... He did smother a lot of his work in the later rounds.. He got Floyd into good position on the ropes where he was at a good distance to pound Floyd without Floyd being able to get off as well, but he'd come in to close against Floyd and really didn't get as much out of his attack..

I was really trying to look for ways Pac could beat him, but it's really hard to see..


Also some more notes to be taken from it was that the commentators were commenting on Floyds plan to take a year or 2 off boxing and to not fight for 2008 & 2009... So that seemed like they were talking about him taking a holiday.. But Floyd after the fight sounded more like it was a dead set retirement.. They also mention Floyd was saying that he didn't really "love" boxing... And I think that is something a fighter really needs to continue on and push themselves well into their aging years, like Hopkins and DLH... Floyd has just probably had to much of it through the years..

Good luck to him in retirement..

I agree the style of PBF is boring...though I always like to remind people the idea is To be hit and not get hit....Though every now and again it is nice to see someone engage in a fight:-\....

That is why I was always such a James Toney fan...He could lay on the ropes wity that shoulder roll when he choose to but you knew the fireworks would come sooner or later on a counter.....

Floyd you know if it going to be a good performence or an snore fest all night while he waits for the points to rally

For me it get`s tireing to hear people make excuses for Hatton loseing the fight with Mayweather,Esp. because the ref made Hatton fight inside the rules of Boxing.As far as Floyd`s gameplan in the fight,I dont know what was expected,Floyd is not A brawler?never has been,what was he supposed to do?stand there and brawl with Hatton?and fight his fight?I knew that was`nt gonna happen,as far as the point deduction goes,I thought it was perfectly in line,last I looked you cannot take A shot at the back of A guy`s head when he is completly turned around,the punch really did`nt land that`s true but the intent was what caused the deduction,Hatton lost because he wrecklessly jumped in on Mayweather and got caught with A counter left hook that ruined him,Mayweather is not Masaua.

I don't see how this fight was boring, it was very fast paced, Mayweather landed good combination as it went along, was landing potshots effectively, but Hatton's speed and pressure were giving him trouble. Floyd outfought Hatton on the inside, outside, everywhere in the ring. I think he adopted a particular style to deal with Hatton's speed, but Floyd fights everyone differently, look at his last 4 fights,
1. Zab Judah: He came forward with his hands up.
2. Carlos Baldomir: Hands down used a lot of movement to throw Carlos off.
3. Oscar De La HOya: basically used a lot of the jab, but used a lot less movement and stood in there and fought well defensively off the ropes.
4. He potshotted Hatton, but made sure to tie Hatton up by ducking under his first punch and holding on. Hatton's tactics on the inside are as illegal as Floyd's elbows, and both were cautioned for using them. Floyd really implemented that check hook and lead right hand in this fight.

This garbage pisses me off. Anybody that uses defense is afraid to get hit? The fact that Mayweather has such great all-around skills makes him a great fighter IMO. He's not just your typical come straight ahead type of boxer. Mayweather is a type of fighter that won't be fully respected right now but will be in like 15 years. People like you were the same type of people that would bash Sugar Ray Leonard and Pernell Whitaker for not having a crowd pleasing style and using footwork and defense during their boxing careers.

BTW, Hatton is a known brawler, hugger, and pretty much all around dirty fighter. Mayweather used Hatton's own crap against him. Mayweather showed a type of veteran toughness like a B-Hop that I'd never seen him display. Almost like a little bit of a mean streak. This is why I think he's gonna be hard to beat because he usually just beats people with his skill but people forget that he's got other intangibles too that can kick in at any moment.

i thought hatton did his best to make it a good scrap, but floyd the pussy he is was so afraid of catching anything coming from hatton. He had Coruptez make it a 2 against 1 match.

I tend to remember the fight more like this too, but i try not to look to hard at any of the crap that doesnt count, I ignore the hugs but count the smothers on the way in as smart play and Im back looking for what happens immediatley either side of the hugs, if they break on their own accord.
Its one I wouldn't watch again though for all points Diz brought up about it.

It was a good fight in bursts.Ring general ship on Floyds behalf too, getting to choke out Rickys attempts even the way he did.
Cortez did look like he was there for only one fighters protection though.
Still it wouldn't have made much difference to the outcome if he had of just stood back for longer, it would of just got dirtier and Floyd would have gone the old fashioned glove to elbow defence on the way in etc then acting like it was an accident, he is capable of being sly and nasty if need be too.

I havn't read in all the post so far in this thread, anyone making excuses for Hatton losing.... I am peresonally tired of people hearing a subject, and automatically assuming the message or aguement people are trying to make.

Hatton lost, in fact for a fair bit of the fight, the ref DID let him fight his way, and he went overboard, smothered his own work, and lost it for himself.. And I havn't see anyone else say anything to the contrary above..

I was simply pointing out the inconsitency of the ref in this particular fight, because this was the fight I watched last night... And NOT in the context that Hatton lost because of it... So i'm sorry if you're tired of that arguement, but no one is making it here..

I'm also staying well clear of the point that a fighter has to brawl for me to enjoy it... There are few, and I mean few fights that I really consider boring... And even fewer actual fighters..
But, at some stages, a certain style can get frustrating.. It's nothing against Floyd, and for most of his fights i'm in awe... But sometimes, in some fights, some fighters have a really ugly ass way of not getting hit... It's simple..

It's still boxing, and the back and forth ways fights go, and the battle for the opponent to overcome whathever a guy is throwing at him is what boxing is all about.. So no, I don't need to guys to be slamming each other mindlessly to enjoy a fight.. Not at all.. But there will be fights here and there where I get frustrated... This is one of them...

However it does get a little better as the fight goes on... And actually the whole point which I probably didn't highlight enough was that I don't think Pac could beat Floyd simply because he's capable of handing all sorts of offence, with all sorts of defence... Of course he can throw back as well when need be.. But it's hard to look back on Pac's history and find an opponent that is as good at nullyfing a fighters offence as Floyd..

So you gotta believe at least 80% of what was effective on poor old Oscar is either not going to be thrown at Floyd because his head isn't there, or it's going to be miss in some way and be ineffective..

I didn't think it was that bad just Floyd knew how to win and did it!

Agreed. For much of the fight, Hatton had plenty of opportunity to fight his way, but like Taeth said, Mayweather just outclassed him on the inside, as badly as he outclassed him from the outside. Simple as.

Well,End of the day,like the Brits like to say,it really did`nt matter,because Ricky got his block knocked off.te;br

yea thats pretty much it. but it wasnt boring. floyd vs oscar was boring but the Hatton fight wasnt boring.

JT,

If you don't agree with me it's fine. No need to cross the line through neg reps. I was simply telling people that I don't like the current style of Mayweather.

Many would agree with me that they find him boring. It's simply a matter of opinion. I like boxers who brawl. Can you blame me for finding PBF boring?



Kingfrank,

Mayweather was rumored that he will be fighting in the MMA before. I was simply predicting.What's wrong with it?

Sounds like excuses to me. I didn't know Cortez shoved Mayweather's fist into Hatton's mouth. I think that's where the KO came from.

I was shocked with the ref in the fight, you could even see old Popkins doing his nut ringside, but at the end of the day you could tell that Jnr had Rickys number after a few rounds and even with out the dodgy ref Floyd had to much for Ricky at that stage of his career, take it from me I was gutted, so many ifs and maybes. Respect to Floyd he can fight any style and for the hatton haters a little vid for you.

I agree. James Toney was a real man fighter. He had skill, offense, defense, not afraid to mix it up at all.

Also Mosely was not afraid to mix it up. Gotta love those two (and they had skill).

If Cortez is the ref for this fight as he was in the Hatton vs Mayweather then it will be another fooking frustrating fight as was the Hatton vs Mayweather fight.Cortez does not understand that boxers are allow to fight in the inside as long as there no fowl play!!!Hatton was'nt able to do what he does best because of Cortez!:mad:

Cortez aloud Hopkins to fight and grab on the inside against Calzaghe.

It was an annoying fight to watch. Hatton can fight a lot better than he did and Floyd did all he could to spoil for the first half a dozen rounds. Personally, I would have headbutted Floyd hard and low blowed him too. Anything to get a bit of respect. If the ref is going to be a bitch then you might as well do it proper.

The mood Cortez was in he would of dq'ed Hatton if he did do anything on purpose.I fought Hatton did ok in the first 5 rounds then he lost his composure and then Floyd took complete control.

Probably, but Ricky wouldnt have been KO'ed. And Cortez would probably have got the respect he deserves. Never being able to referee a fight of that magnitude again. Personally, if I was Ricky I would have got up and smashed Cortez in the face. Cortez would have learned his lesson.

But that is probably me saying too much.

Right,Hatton would`nt have been KO`ed,Right,....

Curious? How in the blue hell do you know what would have happened?

Hatton and his fans need to concentrate on what did happen,He lost.By stoppage,fair and square!

It wasnt Cortez`s fault,it was`nt the fault of Ricky`s Crack Head Trainer not being able to hold the mits.It was Ricky`s fault for jumping in on Floyd Mayweather like he was Masaua.

Funny thing is I`am A big Hatton Fan,and was rooting for him to win the fight with Mayweather,despite the ignorant actions of the British fans Booing the American National Anthem prior to the fight.Perhaps Charma was responsable.

What are you talking about?

You are not thought of as the forum gimp for nothing. National anthems, fans and booing? What has that got to do with this?

Hatton is much better than what Floyd was up against. And Floyd isnt so hot after some recent showings IMO either. All the arm tangle shenanigans.

Hatton can still take him.

Curious? How in the blue hell do you know what would have happened?

Hatton and his fans need to concentrate on what did happen,He lost.By stoppage,fair and square!

It wasnt Cortez`s fault,it was`nt the fault of Ricky`s Crack Head Trainer not being able to hold the mits.It was Ricky`s fault for jumping in on Floyd Mayweather like he was Masaua.

Funny thing is I`am A big Hatton Fan,and was rooting for him to win the fight with Mayweather,despite the ignorant actions of the British fans Booing the American National Anthem prior to the fight.Perhaps Charma was responsable.

What are you talking about?

You are not thought of as the forum gimp for nothing. National anthems, fans and booing? What has that got to do with this?

Hatton is much better than what Floyd was up against. And Floyd isnt so hot after some recent showings IMO either. All the arm tangle shenanigans.

Hatton can still take him.

nope hatton gets kod again.

You are hardly the person I would judge how a fight might go

well it happen the first fight so everything u say wouldnt really matter. and it was a blow out anyway so how can Hatton win a rematch after being kod and only winning abouut 3 rounds. there is NO way and it shouldnt even happen anyway.

Forum Gimp Huh?

WOW!...That`s impressive,...I did`nt think that I posted enough here to have earned A Title?....

Anyway,I`am A hard -core Boxing Fan for about 33 years now,You aint gonna tell me nothing about the fight game,you have your opinions and I have mine,and at the end of the day thats all they are,....opinions,

But this is A fact.... There`s only one Ricky Hatton,...And on that night he got KTFO!,....And J.Cortez had nothing to do with it.

He did he stopped the fight he could of given extra time for Hatton to recover ;D!
But he did have somthing to do with the fight by letting PBF get away with the elbows and constant turning his back or did you miss that.Anyway the fight is well gone lets look forward to Hatton-Pacman.

Ridiculous comment how can you possibly know how a boxer would do in MMA ? just because Floyd Mayweather has got a defensive style, doesn't mean he wouldn't be good in MMA do you realize how stupid you just sounded then ?And as for your other comment above this ridiculous one you just made, didn't i pull you up on this already ? Come on Bruce you haven't seen that many Floyd Mayweather's fights you've said that to me before, so how can you possibly rate how exciting Floyd Mayweather is ? And tell me what is boring about these fights ? Zab Judah Jesus Chavez JLC 1 Angel Manfredy Genaro Hernandez Phillip N'Dou Diego Corrales Emanuel Augustus DeMarcus Corley Arturo Gatti
