Hatton vs Mayweather

[Busyman™]

i dunno what fight you were watching, mayweather fought like a pussy, constantly running away and putting his head down through the ropes, he deserved to loose.

I'm sorry are you talking about the one time he was pushed through the ropes and Hatton hit him in the back of the head?

Are talking about the fact that Hatton had him against the ropes (like he has had many other fighters) throughout the fight yet couldn't hit him with any clean shots.

It sounds like you wanted MW to stand there and get hit.

@Properly Bo Loike - Here's what I was talking about. When MW started doubling over he was hitting Hatton. Hatton just stood there instead of hitting MW himself.

Round 8 (it starts showing a hit in Round 7) Notice hit Hatton takes while MW is leaning over at 1:29
He even brawls with him (neck snaps back yet again) at about 2:54.

the commentator said MW was a master of defence, the clinching and backpedaling all the time was annoying to watch.

He backpedals then hits Hatton though.

Hatton clinched too. You act as if it was a big holding fight.

It wasn't.

Hell that's how Hatton got knocked down the 1st time.

MW played off of him, Hatton charged in to ring post with MW giving him a left hook to take with him on his journey to the floor.

MW was a fucking technician in this fight.

Hit and don't get hit.

Weird that almost every punch stat they showed was

39% to 17% though. (one 40% to 17%)

Hatton was dominated in every category besides the "rushing in throwing punches that miss" category. It remains to be seen whether MW exposed him for other fighters.

Did anyone notice Hatton's ring throwing the towel after the second knockdown.

That was kinda late.

Emmanuel Lewis also said that Hatton didn't know how to buy time after the first knockdown. It's cuz Hatton only knows "attack".

It's partly why he lost. It's supposed to be "hit and don't get hit".

If MW fought like a pussy, what does that make Hatton?

i much prefer watching the UFC where fighters go in there looking for blood, not to pussy foot around and brag about it on the Nine O'Clock.

Roooight.

Matches like this like this though put boxing back in the forefront.

People then say "UF wha?"

whatever MMA > Boxing

I like MMA.

However it isn't up to snuff yet.

If there was a MMA match on last night (really matches), there's no doubt what most people would watch.

there were MMA matches on tv last night. im watching them now: The Ultimate Fighter Season 6 Finale.

I bet it got shit ratings.

[Alien5]

i don't watch things for ratings.

all the matches so far have been better than the boxing.

multiple elbows to the face, knees to the head, blood pouring out of sculls. thats what i call value for money. they fight their hearts out, you don't get no fannying about in the octagon or youre going home in an ambulance.

The last two boxing matches i've watched have been totally disappointing.

i cant believe all the hype and fuss over such a boring fight.

the highlight for me was seeing that tomb raider woman looking for her seat at the beginning.
