Just thought I'd get it out there early, to give hatton-huggers enough time to come up with excuses.

He is too small, and all PBF did was run.

If he would have stood there for 12 full rds, and let Hatton get free shots, Hatton would have KTFO him for sure.

I like Hatton but here's a few you might here:

1. He's a Jr Welterweight and the weight gain didn't suit him well.
2. He's a crude rough houser who can't really box (the UK Arturo Gatti).
3. He drank too much Guinness and ate too much fatty foods and wasn't able to train.
4. Mayweather didn't really win, the judges favored his style more etc.


So Ricky, you better win so this thread is obsolete, eh?

When it went to the cards it was an absolutely HORRIBLE decision. Damn compubox stats aren't worth a shit, Vegas had it fixed from the start. Not to mention Ricky would easily ko1 PBF overseas.

Mayweather agreed to the match, therefore Hatton should soon be cleared in the impending assault with a deadly weapon investigation.

Moving up in weight removed whatever speed Hatton had.

The higher weight diminished the power of Hatton.

Floyd doesn't want to fight. All he did was run and the judges were Floyd nuthuggers.

Hatton landed the better punches. Mayweather outlanded, but they didn't hurt Hatton and don't count.

Running is a pretty valid excuse considering Floyd Mayrunner does it in every single fight.

The last couple rounds of the Hatton/Urango fight was, honestly, some of the worst boxing and most frustrating and boring shit I've ever watched. Hatton was literally throwing one punch and then holding.....every time, all round. I would much rather see Floyd pot-shot and move back out of range than that man-love, bullshit.

he wasnt comfortable hitting a woman(joking),if you lose to the p4p no.1 you dont need an excuse&mayweathers no.1&i personally think the result of the fight will see floyd makin excuses(too much dancing most probably)

Hatton is a real man and as such won't feel the need to make any excuses. Unlike some(many!!) I could mention!!

Ricky hattons fans will have no need to make excuses if he loses to floyd as he is the p4p number 1 at the moment, nuthuggers on either side will make excuses about anything.

This is exactly whats wrong with boxing. Everyone wants to have an excuse for why their fighter lost or why the fighter they hate won.

Can't simply be that one was a better fighter. Fucking tiresome.

It also seems quite funny that people are saying things about queer street when floyd is the one dancing around in costumes and ricky spends most of his time drinking in a pub. If your going to have a dig at least come up with something good rather implying a straight working classman is gay, compared to a guy that is doing one of the gayest things around.

I garantee you that no matter which guy loses you will hear plenty of people saying that he was past his prime. It happens any time that a popular undefeated fighter loses.

hatton fans will point to his shitty performances against Urango and Collazo as a sign that he was starting to slip and claim that the Hatton that fought Tzyu would have beaten Floyd.

Floyd fans will say that Floyd was unfocused, with the dancing and took Hatton too lightly and he was unmotivated with the sport after accomplishing so much, and that the Floyd that fought Gatti or Baldomir would have outboxed hatton easily.

Ricky was fighting in Floyd's backyard.

Ricky moved up in weight to fight Floyd.

The ref wouldn't let Ricky fight on the inside.

Tszyu had no chance with Floyd,he actually refused to fight Floyd preferring Hatton instead

So dancing with a hot half naked chic is gay?

Not in a club, but ballroom dancing is considered one of the gayest sports in the world, and alot of the men who do it are gay so what your point again.

I think its safe to say if Hatton loses they will be a hell of a lot less excuses flying around than if PBF loses

I never guarantee the result of fights but I can guranatee that

U guys must be havin a larf Ricky is going to smack up floyd. Movin up in weight don't mean shit he is only movin up to Welterweight he weighs more than that anywhy if he was movin to middleweight then maybe it would be an issue. Floyd has moved up about 5different weight divisions!!!!

Biased yankee ref wouldnt let Ricky punch the testicles.
MrStayman

Ricky was used to English refs giving him a 20 count.

He didn't mean to bite Floyd's ear off in frustration.

He was busy making "before" photos for his jenny craig advertisement contract.

(This one from BigReg): "The ref shouldn't have stopped that fight, Ricky still had some vision out of his left eye"

I dont think hatton will make any excuses. Hes a gentleman and will admit if he/when he gets beaten soundly. I think pbf will win, but if hatton pulls an upset im sure floyds mouth will be working overtime to make excuses.
