did we miss something with the hatton mayweather fight?

[CFH]

Floyd and the ref tag teamed on Ricky, thats why he lost. He'll be back though.

He lost because Mayweather is a superior fighter in every aspect.

At elbowing and headbutt's I agree, check out Danny's vids he made, Floyd is "Counterfit Money".

[Unknowndonor]

I like Hatton, but he got wooped by Floyd. Nothing to be ashamed of, everyone else that has fought floyd has lost.

Every fighter cheats. Hatton cheats, last time I checked holding was as illegal as elbowing and butting. I also seem to recall Hatton landing a well-placed shot to Tszyu's balls, among his many other infractions.
None of that changes the fact that PBF is better than Hatton in every facet of the game. I like Hatton, I was hoping against all logic and reason that he could beat PBF, but if they fought 10 times, PBF would win 10 times, regardless of who the ref was.

I disagree, Floyd only won by cheating and the dodgy ref, if Hatton wouldn't have had the point took off then he wouldn't have started rushing in getting tagged so easy, he lost his focus after the point deduction and yet the shot never even landed

So it's the ref's fault he lost focus?

The point deduction, Hatton even admitted that after the fight coz then he started chasing the fight.

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

I think it was a check hook that made him lose focus

Yes sort of.

He didn't exactly give Hatton a fair shake.....in a fight where he was already a big underdog.

Part of being a great fighter is mental composure (otherwise Zab would probably be on the P4P lists), Hatton displayed a clear defficiency in that department in the PBF fight. Floyd out-thought Hatton and out-fought him (didn't mean for that to rhyme).
How would Hatton have beaten PBF? Hatton looked good early, but so have a good deal of Floyd's opponents. Mayweather often starts slow in order to adapt to his opponents style. Hatton is smaller and slower than PBF, with a weaker chin, and he is less able to adapt. In addition to the other inequalities between the fighters; the odds were against him from the beginning.
Have you ever considered that it is Hatton's own fault that he has a reputation for being a dirty, hold and hit fighter? It's not like people developed that notion on their own, Hatton has demonstrated it time and again.
Floyd won by knocking Hatton down with a left-hook and by jumping on him when he was hurt, I'm not sure how that's cheating. Another part of being a complete fighter is knowing what to do when your bell is wrung, something else that Hatton demonstrated he was unable to do. As I've said, I like Hatton, but he's always going to be a step below PBF skill-wise, that's nothing to be ashamed of, so is every other fighter today.

[birch]

If you read Mayweather's quotes or listen to the HBO interview after the fight you will realise PBF certainly thought Hatton was one of his toughest opponents.

So to dismiss Hatton as a second rate fighter based on a loss to the P4P best, who then comes out to the press to call Hatton a great fighter, is very premature indeed.

Hatton is still the best at 140, however needs to cement this fact with victories over Malignaggi and Witter within the next year.

Hopefully Witter produces a perfomance of note on Saturday, to make the fight with Hatton a massive British soprting event.

That says a lot about Hatton. Great fighters don't lose there focus. So it's no surprise he did

[DatsiK]

Hatton lost his focus when the ref was being a cunt yeah but no one can say that was the main contributing factor to the loss, hatton was dominated pretty much throughout the fight even before he got angry. He threw more than floyd, yet practically none was landing.

Still, he has nothing to be ashamed of, he got in the ring with the best in the world and he gave a good fight, I think he'll bounce back in style but I don't think he'll ever defeat Floyd, infact I don't think anyone will.
