Right.
I was convinced that PBF would win but not in the style in which he did and also not many if all thought PBF would stop Hatton.
Well for the later part of PBFs career hes been taken apart (me included) by everyone from performances to opponents to just about anything.
I was looking at his career last night and early this morning and just the way hes evolved and the way hes been able to adapt to any style that his opponents have brought.
The Hatton fight proved to me that PBF is light years ahead of everyone I mean this was the best 140 pounder in the world.
In past times we've had 2 of the best from 2 weight classes face off and we've applauded the winner and decorated him.
Evanders move from Crusier to Heavy
Dawsons move from Super Middle to Light Heavy
Cervantes move from Light Welter to Welter
Emile from Welter to Middle
Foster from Light Heavy to Heavy
Some succeed others didn't but you gotta applaud the winner regardless. I just think this whole Hatton was smaller and couldn't fight his style is a bullshit! excuse. Last night showed that PBF is IMO unbeatable I just don't see how Cottos style or Williams style can cause him problems. Whatever issues you and I think of PBF will find a way to just shut it out and not let them execute their game plan. Well I speak for almost all of the Hatton fans here and some none Hatton fans who were just hoping he'd win when I say that they all thought Hattons agressive style would trouble PBF and Hatton would give PBF a tough fight. Well PBF picked him apart and pretty much dictated a fight where most everyone thought Hatton would dictate it and set the pace.
