Mayweather Haters

[ICB]

All Hatton has said is that he wouldn't say no to a rematch, that's harldy like saying "Let's make the fight happen" your misquoting and putting spin on it. You could do that about anything. Gamo I didn't know you were a politican.

I didn't know you were such a fan!

"I'll fight anybody, and that includes a rematch with Luis," said Hatton (41-0, 30 KOs), who won a unanimous decision to become a world champion in a second division. "We'll have to sit down and talk about it."

Luis wanted to sit down and talk about it as Hatton offered but Ricky went back down to 140 straight after the fight?! I don't understand what you find so difficult to understand about that?!? Luis asked for a rematch,Hatton said he would,then vacated the title and went to 140?! Dam man!

it stil doesn't come across as a definate yes tho.....hatton has said he'd fight pretty much any fighter there is at 140-147....dunt mean he is going to, it would be impossible. Obviously a rematch with Luis wouldn't have been impossible but i fail to see why Hatton would need to fight him again. Let's face it, he already beat him......in his back yard. Losing a close fight doesn't automatically guarantee you a rematch and hatton is free to change his mind on the matter....on the basis that it makes F*** all sense to him (financially and morally). He conceded skill, speed, size and home advantage to fight him the first time so questioning hatton's balls is quite ridiculous....(not meaning you here el gamo by the way). Best case scenario......he wins again....F****** well done ricky you've wasted a full year fighting the same guy that nobody really wanted to see you fight, twice in a year. The only praise he would get out of beating him again would be 'oh yeah the first time wasn't a fluke.'

Hatton looked after number 1 and if that means two stylistically easier fights (one against a legend pretty much) at 140....then so be it. End of the day he is fighting Mayweather next

Its obvisious why he needed to fight him again quite alot of people thought Collazo won it was considered very controversial and Collazo was the champion Collazo deserved a rematch for 100 percent and Hatton said he would give him one and went back on his word.

Let's face it, he already beat him......in his back yard. Losing a close fight doesn't automatically guarantee you a rematch and hatton is free to change his mind on the matter....on the basis that it makes F*** all sense to him (financially and morally).

Oh so if Mayweather wouldn't of gave Castillo a rematch you would of been happy with that ?? because he already beat him right ?? im asking that for a reason by the way.

Plenty of people wanted to see a rematch because 1st fight was good action packed fight and controversial if you ask any fight fan if they would of rather of seen Hatton vs Urango or Hatton vs Collazo 2 they would of picked Hatton vs Collazo 2 any day of the week Hatton would of got alot more respect if he would of took the rematch but by Hatton not taking the rematch he has left question marks.

Hatton looked after number 1 and if that means two stylistically easier fights (one against a legend pretty much) at 140....then so be it. End of the day he is fighting Mayweather next

Castillo gave Mayweather hell stylistically in there first fight but Mayweather still had the bottle to get back in there again to prove a point and he did and he beat Castillo convincing forget looking after number 1 Hatton should of got back in there with Collazo and should of proved a point but he didn't and i lost little bit of respect for Hatton not taking rematch.

In all fairness mayweather did lose to castillo by about 3 rounds. IMHO HAtton beat Collazo......just and watching it as an overall fight Collazo was the more impressive and looked the winner...but he wasn't because he gave away too many early rounds.

Credit to Mayweather for rematching Castillo but beatin him again didnt tell me anything new about mayweather. He had an off night the first time they met and was better the 2nd time.

All this bullshit about having to 'TAKE' the title from the champion is just that....bullshit. If you win the fight....you win the title...simple as. A close fight doesn't give you the right to an instant rematch. Hatton shouldn't have agreed to it but he was put on the spot big time at that press conference.

I strongly disagree with your last comment 'forget looking after number 1 Hatton should of got back in there with Collazo and should of proved a point but he didn't and i lost little bit of respect for Hatton not taking rematch.'

i fail to see what point it proves.....he's already beaten him! He was shite and he still won. Why would he bother when he could go back to his normal weight and earn a fight with Mayweather and earn enough cash to live like a king for the rest of his life?

In all fairness mayweather did lose to castillo by about 3 rounds. IMHO HAtton beat Collazo......just and watching it as an overall fight Collazo was the more impressive and looked the winner...but he wasn't because he gave away too many early rounds.

It was very close fight no way Castillo won by 3 rounds i just think its bit unfair Ono that Collazo gave Hatton his shot and it was very close and controversial decision and Hatton stated he would give Collazo a rematch and didn't if there was ever a rematch that should of happened it was Collazo vs Hatton.

Credit to Mayweather for rematching Castillo but beatin him again didnt tell me anything new about mayweather. He had an off night the first time they met and was better the 2nd time.

But if he didn't give Castillo the rematch it would of hurt Mayweather's legacy Ono imo and it would of left serious question marks.

If Champion gives you a shot and loses razor thin decision then for 100 percent the former World Champion deserves a 2nd chance to get his title back.

But in alot of peoples minds he didn't and it left serious question marks and people called him coward for dropping back down in weight and not giving Collazo a rematch i don't call him coward but alot of other fans do and he would of got alot more respect had he rematched Collazo plus he could of proved it was a fluke and he could of proved a point and made a serious statement because in alot of peoples minds they thought Collazo won and i just think it would of been alot better for Hatton had he took the rematch.

Is someone going to show me where Hatton says "I'm going to rematch Collazo"?

This is like the Iraq war and the WMD's, they ain't there, but your still blowing shit up.

[El Gamo]

I find it ironic that all these Hatton fanatics say he didn't say he would rematch Collazo etc when he moved up,got a title shot from Collazo,won a close fight,said he would rematch Luis and ran back to 140. And I don't know about you but I can almost guarantee that a Collazo rematch would have had more hype than a Urango fight. Luis even offered to fight him in the UK?!

It's also ironic how these same Hatton fans(in other threads) say Floyd lost to JLC(he did in most opinions) the first time but forget to mention he gave a rematch and won well. He was given a shot,won contraversially,gave a rematch.

Did'nt Dan once post something about being a Mayweather means bad family values,shows un patriotism/is a traitor etc etc? I rest my case....

Urango had a belt and was a tune-up for the fight against Castillo, and everyone knows that HBO pulls the strings, if they'd have told him to rematch Collazo he would have, just like Mayweather did against Castillo. The politician strikes again.
All that family values and patriotism stuff was just nonsensical banter, I found it hilarious. That's the problem with you Christian folk, because of the bible you learn to intepret the written word into what ever connotatation you see fit.

Dude,what are you talking about? I think I'll leave it now,you obviously have lost the plot?!

CC for a good argument. Interesting stuff. It's weird because to me my immediate impression was 'he's lost this' and i was pleasantly surprised with the verdict. But when i re-watched it....and re-watched it i had hatton winning by a couple of rounds each time. I was trying to be criticle to him as well so to me Hatton doesn't need to prove he can do it all over again because to me he won anyway. It was a close and exciting fight tho so i i see why there was call for a rematch by some people.

On a side note i once saw an interview where Mayweather said he would come over to England and fight him no problem......and then i saw an interview where he denied ever saying that and refusing to ever come over and fight. Can you see how that would make Mayweather a coward in some poeple's eyes?

Credit to Mayweather for rematching Castillo but beatin him again didnt tell me anything new about mayweather. He had an off night the first time they met and was better the 2nd time.

But if he didn't give Castillo the rematch it would of hurt Mayweather's legacy Ono imo and it would of left serious question marks.

All this bullshit about having to 'TAKE' the title from the champion is just that....bullshit. If you win the fight....you win the title...simple as. A close fight doesn't give you the right to an instant rematch. Hatton shouldn't have agreed to it but he was put on the spot big time at that press conference.

If Champion gives you a shot and loses razor thin decision then for 100 percent the former World Champion deserves a 2nd chance to get his title back.


i fail to see what point it proves.....he's already beaten him! He was shite and he still won. Why would he bother when he could go back to his normal weight and earn a fight with Mayweather and earn enough cash to live like a king for the rest of his life?

But in alot of peoples minds he didn't and it left serious question marks and people called him coward for dropping back down in weight and not giving Collazo a rematch i don't call him coward but alot of other fans do and he would of got alot more respect had he rematched Collazo plus he could of proved it was a fluke and he could of proved a point and made a serious statement because in alot of peoples minds they thought Collazo won and i just think it would of been alot better for Hatton had he took the rematch.

CC for a good argument. Interesting stuff. It's weird because to me my immediate impression was 'he's lost this' and i was pleasantly surprised with the verdict. But when i re-watched it....and re-watched it i had hatton winning by a couple of rounds each time. I was trying to be criticle to him as well so to me Hatton doesn't need to prove he can do it all over again because to me he won anyway. It was a close and exciting fight tho so i i see why there was call for a rematch by some people.

On a side note i once saw an interview where Mayweather said he would come over to England and fight him no problem......and then i saw an interview where he denied ever saying that and refusing to ever come over and fight. Can you see how that would make Mayweather a coward in some poeple's eyes?

I can understand your point but im glad you can see mine also for good debate.

I find it ironic that all these Hatton fanatics say he didn't say he would rematch Collazo etc when he moved up,got a title shot from Collazo,won a close fight,said he would rematch Luis and ran back to 140. And I don't know about you but I can almost guarantee that a Collazo rematch would have had more hype than a Urango fight. Luis even offered to fight him in the UK?!

It's also ironic how these same Hatton fans(in other threads) say Floyd lost to JLC(he did in most opinions) the first time but forget to mention he gave a rematch and won well. He was given a shot,won contraversially,gave a rematch.

Did'nt Dan once post something about being a Mayweather means bad family values,shows un patriotism/is a traitor etc etc? I rest my case....

Urango had a belt and was a tune-up for the fight against Castillo, and everyone knows that HBO pulls the strings, if they'd have told him to rematch Collazo he would have, just like Mayweather did against Castillo. The politician strikes again.
All that family values and patriotism stuff was just nonsensical banter, I found it hilarious. That's the problem with you Christian folk, because of the bible you learn to intepret the written word into what ever connotatation you see fit.

Dude,what are you talking about? I think I'll leave it now,you obviously have lost the plot?!

Who said you were allowed to make my words glow?

Oh sorry master Dan i didn't know you told people what they can and can't do.

Apology accepted, I now give you the permission to make my words glow, and you can underline them too. But if you make them bold I'll be really upset.

oooooooh I didn't see that one coming. You got me. Good one

Aside the fact that he is an elusive fighter and cocky, there are few people that can give credible reasons to dislike Mayweather.
Ali was hated for what he stood for outside the ring. He was also charasmatic, cocky and flamboyant. It is only after we (so-called boxing fans) see him in this sorrowful and humbled state that we come to adore and somewhat respect his accomplishments. Many promoters, boxing venues and handlers alike were fed off of Ali's Talent, as they are with Mayweather.
To all the all of the Mayweather haters LIST FIVE VALID REASONS TO DISLIKE HIM.

I have news for you son,Ali was one of my idols growing up as a kid.
One of the most painful things Ive ever seen was the Holmes/Ali fight
I refuse to even acknowledge the Berbick one
Mayweather flat out bores me,and the fact that his mouth cant stop flapping on top of it.
Well it just reminds me of a FEAR song
"The Trouble With Women,Their Mouths Dont Stop"

What was so boring about these Mayweather fights ??


Jesus Chavez
Phillip N'dou
Victoriano Sosa
Arturo Gatti
Zab Judah
DeMarcus Corley
Jose Luis Castillo
Carlos Hernandez
Diego Corrales
Emanuel Augustus
Angel Manfredy
Genaro Hernandez

The Manfredy fight is a perfect example of why he just bores me.He f's around too much in there
At least when Ali did it,or god help me Naz did it,hey gave you a show,when Mayweather does it,you dont know why he's just toying,but you know he is
I just find him to be boring
Cant hate on the guy,he's got all the talent in the world,but he just bores me

He finished off Manfredy in exciting fashion i can't believe you would find that fight boring.

Bored me,bores me every time I watch.
He could have ended Manfredy any time he wanted to,he just didnt.Hell Manfredy spent most of the fight handing him his head.

If i remember correctly the first round was very competitive and Mayweather slighty changed his tactics then really took over and stopped him see thats why i can't understand your way of thinking Monkey because you enjoy watching Ali carry fighters for about 7 rounds or ect but you don't enjoy Mayweather finishing off Manfredy in 2 rounds in impressive fashion.

Ironic,I just rewatched the fight the other week.Its both fighters career in a nutshell with one fatal flaw.
Mayweather is up on his bicycle the whole time,and Manfredy is charging the entire time.
But Angel's reach is about 2 inches to short to ever get there sufficiently
