honestly how the F*** can you say that?

when has there been posts to say hatton is anything special at 147?? ffs that is got ot be the biggest bullsh*t post on here i have ever read, and i have read alot of posts by VD...

i am far from a brit "i love hatton fan" i think one collazo is very very underrated, but 2 hatton should of and could of trained and give him a rematch to show that he could do (and i honeslty believe he could) alot better than he did at short notice...

but fact, the guy collazo or hatton was meant to fight pulled out, soa window opend up for hatton v collazo and he took it at very short notice and won, close, some say he lost but he WON but hatton has had a sh*t load of abuse for that fight and in no F****** way is he overrated at 147 thats utter bullsh*t
Hatton at 140 is a monster IMO, but at 147 he's just an average fighter. His advantages are severly diminished at 147 because he already was too short and had short reach to begin with, but his mauling physical style won't work against the elite at 147, and outside of his heart and stamina, that's all he really had going for him anyway. The guy has a ton of holes in his defense and is a one trick pony on offense. That trick works fine at 140 not at 147.
