did we miss something with the hatton mayweather fight?

[Majesty]

Before any of you start using the Hatton was at 147 excuse for the reason he lost.

Do you think that fight would have been any different at 140?


Anyway yes Hatton belongs in the ring with Mayweather. Mayweather is the top elite, Hatton belongs with the elite but we dont know "how elite" he is. A fight with someone good at 140 could answer that. Like the winner of Witter Bradley which isnt a given

The thing that gets me is that everyone talks about how Ricky was able to hang with Mayweather.

Why don't they talk about how Mayweather was able to deal with adversity, pressure and adapted to Hatton's style and started to take over the fight.

Mayweather is the type of fighter where people who don't like him only talk about what his opponent did well up until Mayweather beat him.

You don't hear anyone talking about how Mayweather adapted changed up and eventually started dominating Hatton after the mid rounds.

But you hear how Hatton "hung in there" with him. I don't get it sometimes.
