    First off, watch Danny's video. It is an excellent analysis of the fight. How the fuck can you hit somebody when they duck down below your waist whenever you throw? Not saying Hatton is a saint because he isn't, but the video pretty much highlights the fact that the Floyd Mayweather method of avoiding punches is illegal. Kudos to him for getting away with it and even without that method he'd have most likely won.

    To say Castillo was shot is a bit harsh considering he handled Ngoudjo a hell of a lot better than Paulie did. I know your probably going to say styles make fights, but the fact is he still looked a hell of a lot better than Paulie did. I know Castillo had a fight before that with Reyes and he didn't look great but then again he ko'd Chico in the fight before. Yes there was the weight issue but that punch would probably have done it no matter what.

    To say Kosta was shot is just ignorant. How the fuck can the p4p #2 fighter coming off a 3rd round destruction of Sharmba Mitchell be considered shot? How does a shot fighter become the number 2 ranked fighter in the world at any weight? Is your boxing knowledge so great that you've decided to over-rule the vast majority of boxing experts all over the world by declaring his shotness?

    And you will probably find that most people on here based their predictions on a 'Collazo, who the fuck is he? Hatton will win' mentality. I certainly didn't think it would be an easy fight and neither did Billy Graham seen as tho he tried to talk Hatton out of it.

    I can see what you and VD are getting at by saying his best 2 wins have been against older fighters but you can't just dismiss old as being shot because they are 2 completely different things.
    Im not saying Mayweather was a saint in the fight, but what makes me laugh is that all these *Hatton fans* were saying Cortez was one of the best refs for Hatton. But now Hatton got outclassed its *suddenly* different. Hatton was also doing his fair share of rabbit punching and illegal blows if i had the amount of time Danny had on his hands, then i could do a video showing all of Hatton's illegal tactics which were just as bad.

    Why is it harsh ?? most people on this site were saying Castillo was shot. Your not going to tell me that he didn't like a shot fighter against Herman Ngoudjo are you ?? plus Castillo's best weight was at Lightweight, so i would consider that a shot fighter.

    What has Tszyu's P4P ranking got to do with anything ?? first off he was P4P number 3 not 2. and second just because he was ranked high in P4P rankings doesn't mean he wasn't shot. Pernell Whitaker was ranked P4P number 1 when he was struggling with the likes of Diosbelys Hurtado and Wilfredo Rivera and i considered Whitaker shot at that time and he was P4P number 1, so it doesn't matter where you are ranked in the P4P Ono. Its just common sense that when your 35 years old, and you have only fought like 3 times in about 4 years, you will no way be able to perform at your best nowhere it. 35 years old is old in boxing and top that off with all the inactivity.

    Well of course thats what people thought Ono, it was supposed to be a easy title for Hatton to make a good start at Welterweight, no one had heard of Collazo im glad you agree with that.
