Dan my boy, you're so gullable...its all an act. In real life he's a proper nasty piece of work, I can't find any evidence to back this up but I think its probably true.

Anyway, who needs evidence? This is the Internet, a wonderful invention that allows me to insult and libel people without fear of any repercussions.

In all honesty Gaz I'm pretty disillusioned with boxing in general. Floyd has vacated his WBC title & is fighting a joke fight with DLH. The IBF have stripped Margo & we might have to watch Hatton Mayweather instead of Mayweather Cotto. That isn't a slight on Hatton but on the stupid politics that ruin our sport. Fed up.

Theres Cotto-Margo to look forward to. That should be some fight, better than PBF-Cotto IMHO.

Yes it will be good but Cotto will give him a terrific beating. I'm pissed off with Floyd for not making the biggest fight in boxing. I'm pissed off that the p4p king has become a sell out & I'm pissed off that the IBF have yet again stripped a worthy title holder because obviously Judah or Clottey are more worthy than Margo.

No need to apologise, I'm probably guilty as charged on that point, but for me that is boxing related. I meant some of the more personal stuff like implying he's only friendly with a disabled kid to boost his image. Stuff like that never entered my head and I had forgotten all about that kid until that docu the other night.

I've only been posting on here since about April. I wouldn't have criticised Hatton at all before the Mayweather fight, I just think that the loss to Mayweather revealed a different side to Hatton's character. But then again I'm not a professional boxer, for a boxer to get to the level Hatton has must require a deep belief in yourself. It must be hard to take when you eventually come up against someone who defeats you.

why are you so sure Cotto will butcher Margarito?
I think Margo has a decent chance, he's a big sturdy bastard and I just don't see him wilting against Cotto.

TFFP
05-24-2008, 03:15 PM
Margarito will get punished badly with that defence, even his chin won't stand that fight

Cotto does everything better, Margarito's only real advantage is size

I'll be looking at some generous odds on the Cotto stoppage

Betty Swollocks
05-24-2008, 03:17 PM
nah, I don't see Cotto putting dents in him. Maybe we can have a bet near fight time?

I'm trying to get time off so I can go to that fight.

Exactly, he's a big sturdy bastard & will take a good beating. Cotto will jab his head off & bust him up on the inside. Margo is good to watch but people on the general forum love him because he has a good chin & brawls. The fact is he doesn't have the style to trouble Cotto but does have the chin to take a terrible beating from him. I seriously hope Margo has a sympathetic corner.

so you see it something like Kessler-Andrade?
I think Margo is good enough to give him a lot of stick in return, I guess that's where we disagree.

TFFP
05-24-2008, 03:22 PM
It wouldn't of thought it would be like Kessler/Andrade, Kessler stood his ground and controlled the distance with his 1-2 against the pressure fighter, whereas I can see Cotto actually coming forward and meeting Margarito, which will make this a war

Andrade and Margarito are very alike though, horrible defences, granite chins. Not always a good combination, from a long-term health point of view

Yes but worse because Cotto has better power. Margo will land but not hard enough or consistently enough to trouble Miguel. I will have no issue betting on this. I can see Margo being pulled out late with some terrible facial damage.

Cotto has shown no real evidence of serious power at WW, Cintron has power and Margarito walked though him

Whereas Margarito can keep the pressure up and comes on strong down the stretch Cotto seemed to fade against Mosley

Cotto may well win... but your analysis of an easy night, I just can't accept that

I think most of us have had enough of Ricky Hatton.


If you have had enough of him, it is because you route out anything that he is connected with, with an agenda to find fault and slag him off as much as possible.

For you, especially as you are outside Manchester, you must very rarely see anything about Ricky Hatton, unless you are purpoesly looking for it. He is occasionally on SSN because, well, sports news programs will tend to focus on upcoming sports events, even though he hasn't really been on much as it has been such a big footballing month.
Apart from that there have been two documentories about him, which were very easily avoidable if you wanted to avoid them but no, no you wanted to watch, with your cock in your hand, dribbling from the mouth, getting excited about finding something he says that you will guess is untrue or waiting for him to tell a joke you have heard him say before so you can come running on here going on about how sick and tired you are of him and his jokes.

Apart from that, you would never see or hear about him except a couple of small pieces in the papers (just turn the page) or the threads on here (just don't click!!). Simple really.

It is so funny (funny peculiar), all these people who hate the guy (for some damaged reason) who go on about him telling the same joke in interviews, well, that just shows how obssessed you are, that you follow him enough to know his jokes and know how often he tells them.

Do you not realise how unstable you are? Sociopathic, compulsive obsession and it is so obvious to everyone who reads your posts.

It's nowt to do with that, c'mon mate. You know the point I am making, if not you are blindly refusing to see it. It isn't that he is critisised, it is what the critisism entails that is the problem.

I have had several discussion on here with people who don't like his boxing style and I have always been interested in what they had to say and come away with it thinking "yep, he does need to work on his jab" or "I wish he would wrestle less too actually" etc.

I appreciate criticism, but what we are getting is not criticism, it is ignorant, cynical hatred but worse than that, it is people actually searching for reasons to hate him.

That people are supporting The Hispanic Causing Panic (what a fucking name!!) is of no concern to me at all, why should it be? That people don't respect his boxing style or his skill, while I don't always agree, is of no concern either... Why the fuck am I repeating this? I have a fault of being very fucking long winded and spelling things out, so if you couldn't understand the reason I posted in the first place then I am wasting my time.

no no no, the way he fights is only part of if. The way he hypes up clearly handpicked opponents, spins things all the time, makes excuse for his loss and whines about it, the Witter situation.....these things get on the tits of many boxing fans.

Is what Hatton does when promoting/ hyping fights any different to what most boxers do in that situation? Or trying to rationize a loss in order to get a rematch?
