Hatton forgot to do one thing and that was throw punches. He wrestled him all over the place but never threw punches. Sure Mayweather held a lot, but in a lot of those situations he had no choice. I thought Cortez was brutal. He is usually pretty solid, but I thought last night he was way off. I wanted Hatton to knock his head off, but I agree with Chuck in the fact that Mayweather just doesn't get hit. Now I'm pissed that I paid $54 to see it. Oh well.....

Watched the whole fight and PBF is a great boxer hands down. Hatton was holding and kept charging into PBF. PBF did the only thing you can do when someone with 20 inch arms is charging you, you grab thier arse. PBF finally listened to his corner when they said "when he comes charging in throw as many punches as you can into his lttle Hobbit arse. And that is what PBF did in the 8th round and almost ended it then. He rested in the 9th and came out with a flurry of punches hitting Hatton almost at will. When PBF knocked Hatton down the 1st time Hatton slammed his head into the corner turn buckle like the WWE. Hatton got back up and PBF finished him off unlike any other time in his career. Great fight in the later rounds. Undercard was the worst I've ever witnessed in my life of watching PPV. Anyway the local bar here in Holland Michigan (Blazers) had the fight for only a $10 cover. Stiffest drinks in all of Michigan in this place for sure.

British bookmaking industry is probably heaving a sigh of relief today. A Hatton victory would have created their biggest single losing day since Dettori's day at Ascot 11 years ago. Estimates are that $40 Million was wagered on the fight in the UK.
Didn't give Ricky much of a chance and he now needs to drop back down a division or retire. I think he'll carry on and maybe 2-3 years from now Amir Khan (who should win a lightweight World title within 12 months) will step up and thy can fight at Old Trafford-unfair if it's at Bolton or Man City Worst thing about the fight was the booing of the National Anthem but I expected that as that unfortunately has become the norm at International Soccer games. "God Save the Queen" is really only played when International teams play and the opposition anthems get booed. Croatia's got booed-bet their fans couldn't care less about that.

I just reread this entire thread.
I am seriously going to consider getting a life. MORE than none person picked Hatton! Yes! A tko and a ko are the same thing. Oh my God. And then someone lists step by step instructions on how to cheat the most powerful dept. of the federal government!! AND signed it!! On a PUBLIC message board!! Oh boy. Is it me? Hattons leg pressing 1100 pounds! Too bad that had aboslutely nothing to do with beating Mayweather. What....was he going to dropkick him to death !? Pay per mark...not view. God. Full metal Yahtzee sounds better every thread. Someone is PAYING for Jones/Trinidad????? I'm leaving. No I'm not. Know why? 'Cause ya just can't buy stuff like this!

Hatton only managed to come 3rd in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award tonight.
Grand Prix driver Lewis Hamilton was the favourite unless Hatton won last night and drew hundreds of thousands of phone votes. In the end they both got done by Super-Middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe. I am looking forward to seeing if he can be lured out of the Millennium Stadium to face Bernard Hopkins
