Mayweather vs Hatton

[MSphinx]

I was quite disappointed with the outcome, but I'd rather see a clearcut victory than a judge's decision. Good match throughout.

It was good fight. It was a shame the 3 judges decided not to actually watch it. When they showed how the judges had scored it up to the KO I was stunned.

I didn't see that... what happened?

The judges scores up to that time was about right. Check the accuracy rate of Mayweather's punches and the number compared to Hatton's.

I wouldv'e only given Hatton two rounds. He did do a good job of getting Floyd on the ropes but hedidn't land too many solid shots. the punch stats tell all.

I couldn't understand why Hatton was leaning on him sooo much. I really thought Hatton's corner was gonna take a page from Castillo and try to ugly it up a bit, throw off Mayweather's rhythm/timing, and try to force a bang out.

I think the Mayweather camp's decision to get Baldomir as a training partner, really prepared him for this kind of fight. One thing's for sure, and that is Mayweather is in phenomenal condition.

I actually hope that there is a re-match. It was at least moderately competetive up until the knock downs, and if Hatton's corner made some adjustments, like leaving a slight more space, and getting to Mayweather's right side more, more body work, could have changed the fight a bit. Also when Hatton got caught with the flash left, his face fell into the corner.

Bye the way, what was the judges scores up until the TKO?

No need for a rematch.

Hatton got inside pretty easily, until the last 2 rounds, but he never threw his body shots once there. He has incredible body shots, yet Floyd was the one working the body and it showed in Rounds 9 and 10.

The Punchstat numbers don't reflect the whole fight. The last 2 rounds were just target practice for Floyd. Up until the 9th Round, they were much closer than at the time of the stoppage.

I though Hatton would win. I give Floyd alot of credit for putting on a good, exciting fight and still winning.

2 judges had it 89-81. The 3rd had it 88-82.

i knew Mayweather was going to win but i didn't expect Mayweather to KO Hatton.

Impressive performance from Mayweather...that "check hook" was amazing!!

Fight of the year IMO !!
