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..
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.
