So much for Mayweather-Marquez

[Kel]

Just wrote a really long and detailed post with pictures and I got an error on submit and firefox shut down (never had firefox do that before)

In short...........

Hatton had no advantage at all in the fight. Everything was in Floyds favour. Cortez....watch the Hatton Castillo fight, they clinch, fight on the inside and he allows Hatton to do what he does.

In the Floyd fight, as soon as Hatton gets near "NOOOO RICKY LET GO"
and "DONT HIT HIM WHEN HE DUCKS LIKE THAT"

I guess I'd have to see the long detailed post because all those points are answered in my post. Hatton had to deal with that partly because Brit fans pissed Cortez off by booing the US anthem. All fighters get the breaks on one occasion & not on others. Hatton did not lose because of Cortez, he lost because he was the the inferior fighter.

If a booing crowd can change how a referee does their job........they should not be a referee should they?

I never said he was a good ref (although he was actually alright last night) he's been pretty shit in the last few years. But blaming Cortez/the weight/Billy Graham has seemed to be Hatton & his fans way of trying to rationalize the loss. Cortez was bad, but he didn't cost Ricky the fight, this was not a Soto-Lorenzo or a Bute-Andrade job

I'm a Hatton fan, I won't try to convince you Hatton is the better fighter, he just never got the chance to fight his fight. Not one bit

The problem for him was that when he was on the inside, by Hatton's own admission, Mayweather was better than him. Yes, if he's allowed to shove his head in Mayweather's face, maybe he could butt him and win, but quite frankly Ricky just isn't good enough to beat Mayweather. I'm hoping he's good enough to do it against Pacquiao as I've spent a load goin out to see him, but as tough as he is, he is too technically limited against a fighter like PBF or probably Mosley. Pacquiao isn't as technically smart, so I think Ricky can find a way maybe. Oh wait, I don't wanna talk about that fight, I can almost see SaddoBoxer hearing his PacquiaoAlert going off
