    Default Hatton/Floyd = F* what a boring fight...!

    I'm just rewatching this for actually the first time since watching it on the night.. I can't believe how boring it is... It was the same recipe of what Hopkins used to win a lot of fights... Floyd used his reach to hit Hatton whenever he was just outside range. Whenever he got a 1/4 of an inch INSIDE range, he would dive forward with his head down and hug him... It's a type of fighting I can't stand!! Some of Floyd other fights were tactical genius and just a pleasure to watch him school opponents the way he did... But the tactic of dive and hug as soon as a fighter gets in range to punch, it's ugly and boring.. If you've got skill outside that reach zone of the other oppnent, you'll win fights that way.. But it's sad to watch..

    And personally Floyd has to much game to let Pac win... Even if it took trying to potshot Pac on the outside, and hug him anytime he got close.. It's that sort of gritty arsenal that would ensure a Floyd win... Pac would try to be a warrior about it, but you can't hit someone who has both arms around you... And Floyd just has to many ways of not being hit, and getting under fighters skin, and coming out a point on top of too many rounds..

    At least that's what i've garnished from the ugly as hell Hatton fight.. And if a ref doesn't warn or deduct points for constant ducking down and hugging repeatedly, you'll always get an ugly fight like that..

    (And on a personal note that was debated to death earlier so I won't go into it again,,, whenever the fighters got close and Hatton had a chance at hitting, Cortez would jump the fuck in and literally rip Hatton's free punching hand away to seperate them... Whenever Floyd grabbed and Hatton had no chance, he'd let the hold go on.... He is a shit inconcistent referee i'll say that much)
