I’ve watched about 15 Floyd Mayweather fights over the past 3 days. How anybody can criticize him in the ring is beyond me. Poetry in motion inside the ring.
@@deedee1533 Go watch MMA. This is boxing, not a high school fight. You’re used to that rocky Balboa bullshit. Real boxing is hit and don’t get hit as much as possible. Muhammad Ali was the greatest Athlete ever and he said “Float like a butterfly, Sting like a bee.”
I came here to watch the ending of the match. To see how classy and composed Floyd and his team was after the fight, versus how Tank Davis and his team acted, will determine how Tank will be viewed.
U know they actually give Floyd credit for being the 1st to throw that STAB/Jab to the body??? I’m not sure exactly which fight it is but they mention it in one of the fights that no1 really used that weapon prior to Floyd
This is the thing that pisses me off about people that hate on Mayweather. He's always extremely gracious and humble in victory. He always compliments the other fighters and gives them their due credit
+Ben Crouch I learn a lot about people expressing their opinion as they watch this type of CLASS A winner that is mayweather, and one thing is for sure, even they can't get in the way.
I was a huge Hatton fan back in the day and the Brits still singing after the KO gave me goosebumps. I still love Hatton to this day, but Floyd is just on a higher level than everyone else.
I have thought that so many times. I go back and watch as many Mayweather fights as I can and I have seen his cutman get to actually do his job a grand total of 1 time.
+QU3STION5 That is a bunch of bullshit right there. When Floyd was at Lightweight Ricky Hatton was fighting at Jnr. Welterweight already. When he fought Arturo Gatti Ricky Hatton was at the ringside and was already a Ring Magazine champion at Jnr Welterweight. My point is, if you have been following boxing and even better if you are a fighter, you would know that for a naturalized Jnr Welters, making a Welterweight is very easy. So your excuse for Ricky Hatton here does not fly. Floyd himself was once a jnr Lightweight. Just give credit to the guy.
+Roy Mustang I'm a huge Ricky Hatton fan, I loved the man's aggression and determination. Every step he took was forward. But the plain and simple truth is Floyd is just a masterful boxer, one of the greatest of all time. If Ricky and Floyd fought 20 times, Floyd would win all 20.
***** Ha ha ha ha ha......Hatton giving Floyd a boxing lesson??? Oh my goodness........Woooow!!! This is the funniest thing I have heard today. Thanks man. Ha ha ha ha
A guy who has called over 845 world championship bouts says Mayweather is one of the best of the very best and yet the haters still want to try and clown on Floyd. smh
Hatton must've felt like he was stuck between a rock & a hard place in this fight. Floyd pot-shotted him from long range, walked him into his powershots, & once Hatton worked his way inside, he found out that Floyd's defence is just as effective in close, as it is from a distance.
Ricky Hatton just received a boxing master class lesson from the best boxing professor in the world. The best part of the lecture was in round 8, and instead of 12 rounds Floyd decided to cut the lecture short cause Hatton wasn't learning shit.
I've watched a lot of fighters in over fifty years. I have never seen anyone better. Period. I just watch his matches over and over again. So smart and so supreme then anyone I have ever seen in boxing. Period.
@@amitm1993 undefeated but the shittiest boxer? That makes Shane Mosley, Hatton, De La Hoya, and Maidana absolute bums then. Go watch WWE. Let the grown ups talk about boxing kid.
I think that was the best check left hook knockdown in pro boxing to date. The way he set the trap down to the reaction the way he threw the way it landed how he dipped out underneath Ricky all of it was just perfect. To me that sequence of events was the epitome of float like a butterfly sting like a bee.
@@tonyebiere551 Yeah that one was good for sure, but where I'm at with that when comparing the two... the rolly ko, was an opportunity that presented it's self to tank and tank took advantage of it. In my opinion what I think makes Mayweather's better, is Mayweather set that up and baited hatton into that check left hook and it was so short and fast hatton never saw it and Mayweather had already dipped out and under hatton before he went down leaving hatton face first into the post 😂. It was just cleaner to me, but again tanks was great as well take nothing away from tank for that highlight reel KO. Just my opinion.
@@ilovelulu8492 I agree with you on the baiting by Floyd, it was in fact genius. However, considering that Tank was much smaller, shorter and less powerful than Rolly and also considering that Rickey Hatton had been worn out for 9 whole rounds and was weaker at the time he was caught in the 10th round making it hard to recover, not taking anything away from Floyd, I would say that a 6th round K.O when Rolly was still very strong and was in fact the one wearing Tank down has to be my number 1 pick.
Round 4, wow what a performance by Floyd. The mauling on the inside in the corner at 24:43. The pot shots to the body straight after it. Making Ricky miss all his punches. The body shots on the inside at 25:43. The short uppercut at 26:06 and stiff jab straight after it. The pot shots up close at 26:28 and that FUCKING BEAUTIFUL step back, right hand to the face straight after it OMG. Then that one two and push away right after it. At 26:33 catches Ricky coming in with a right hand and lands uppercuts on the inside as Ricky is leaning in. Making Ricky miss every single punch while landing short sharp body shots. Floyd really started to time Ricky perfectly in this round, worked out his movements and punch patterns and woud counter in between so beautifully. Absolutely phenomenal. No words for a guy like Floyd. A true master of fighting
Natural god given ability. No matter how hard you train, you don't get to that level unless you have that god-given natural talent and boxing IQ. Unreal.
I love that commentator that says "Floyd is just a master boxer" every Floyd fight. Literally only one and a half minutes into this fight I'm like "That's just pure genius, so smart etc." Floyd is that damn good!
All I heard the commentator do is complain about Floyd using his elbow and forearm to negate hattons constant clinching strategy. You can tell he was for hatton
The thing with Floyd is that his style looks so unexciting to the casual fan. But he is an absolute master of boxing. His intelligence in the ring is second-to-none. Ricky's style is far more exciting to watch but it wouldn't work for Floyd. He stalks his prey and waits for a moment to pounce.
This is fun artistic shit to watch right here. A true master at work, and yes the casual fan has no business. I'll watch any Floyd fight and be amazed at the artistry of his movements.
Craig Lee and that's what most fans notice plus the referee, judge's and who bank rolled him. That has been the boxing game but Floyd was a great boxer and I would have liked to see him fight others that where in his caliber in certain times but he made it his way and most highest paid athlete was a boxer so he's the greatest in that aspect. Can't take it from him so he owns it along with downsides that piss his fans off.
jantje de bie I’m sure the reason Europe has more Olympic medals is because it’s much older than the U.S. We’re only 243 years old man. On top of that the entire continent of Europe is split into many countries so that means whether France wins a medal or Spain or Italy or Greece or the UK, it all falls under Europe. As big as the U.S. is we’re only one country so our wins come as a whole. Another thing I forgot to mention is the systemic racism our country is built upon, which makes it even harder if you’re a minority here, which also equals crazy good minority athletes (you should be no stranger to them, Prince Naseem was an absolute beast). But either way it’s not a landslide, you guys are better at certain things and we’re better at others. Since we’re on a boxing video what’s your opinion on who dominates the sport?
This was my first time watching Floyd box many years ago. I hated his guts (didnt realise he was doing it to sell the fight, back then).. but after slowly watcing Floyd's previous fights, how he counters, dodge + pot shot, slip, roll, combo + def roll and slide, it made me realise he is master boxer. no one comes close or anywhere near his level.
Once Floyd took over Promoting he made sure the PPV numbers were correct and he was saving his hands.He was a superior fighter throughout his whole career
this is probably the 50th time watching this fight and it still gives me chills. the support in the building for hatton... the confidence of hatton being 43-0 41 knockouts... fans chanting " there's only one ricky hatton " that fucking place was rocking !! wish i could have been their to experience this. floyd aka the GOAT!
If he was the GOAT he wouldn't be fighting smaller guys and cherry picking his entire career. Snorting dope before every fight in his dressing room doesn't win him any votes either. Sugar Ray Robinson would beat Floyds ass all night long. He began his pro career at 131-1, was 85-0 as an amateur. Combined he was 216-1 in his first 217 fights. He had 109 KO's in the pro's and 69 KO's in 85 amateur fights. SRR ducked nobody, he fought 7 or 8 times a year and everyone knows that Floyd couldn't carry his jock strap. Floyd lost 6 amateur fights, none in the pro's because he paid the judges. Floyd knocked out Ortiz on a cheap shot and Hatton, a smaller guy. Those are his only KO'S in 10 years. SRR knocked out more then that on his way to the gym every day.
@@MrMarco855 He knocked Hatton sorry ass out. It was no cheap shot when you eat the last 10 punches. Ortiz headbutted Floyd and got what his dirty as deserved, knocked clean out. He's not the Greatest but i can't let you lie like that. 1 things for sure, he'll wear your ass out any day of the week. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jamesm4047 So, PacMan picked Hatton to huh? 🤔 Foh. Floyd technically destroyed every fighter he faced. I don't agree with his technique but he whipped ass after going back watching those fights. He let them pass 5 rounds. All of them. He put on a clinic against Canelo's fat ass. Had him KO'D in rd5 and let him survive. As a matter of fact, I'm about to watch that shit right now. James M? I'll tag you in on the shout out. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Floyd always had a tank. The most overlooked aspect of him personally was his insane work ethic, despite the public persona. He was nothing less than a stellar professional. Always in elite shape. Always prepared. Always game.
@@Kigoz4Life I can't tell if you are being sarcastic, or if you have never looked at the stats of any one of 100 high-pressure, volume punchers that regularly eclipsed his output.
@@sowediogola he was definitely great, but his reluctance to face the most legitimate challenges leaves us with no choice but to wonder just how great. His most impressive defensive maneuvers came at the negotiating table.
@@niceguy1774 who did he avoid? Pacquiao when he was obviously juicing? Floyd cleaned up boxing and you're butt hurt by that? You just wanted to see him lose to a cheater and he did not oblige. Cry about it.
Mayweather’s greatest gift/talent/ability and what separates him from every other fighter ever is visible at 56:50. They had just brawled during the 8th round, and floyd isnt even breathing heavy when the round was over. His conditioning is second to none. He earns his check outside the ring, for sure.
Enjoy this. We will NEVER see another boxer of this caliber again in our lifetime. Floyd was special. There's literally nothing he CAN'T do. He beat Hatton in Hatton's specialty...fighting on the inside. The way he completely neutralizes opponents and makes it look easy is almost criminal. It's a shame he will never get the respect he deserves from the haters because they don't like his personality. But his CHARACTER doesn't diminish what he did in that ring. Truly the greatest boxer to ever live.
Agree 100% the Best EVER Better beleve it Never know what you haVE until you lose it give him his flowers now that he can smell it...is HONESTY N DECENSY TO DO SO...
@Michael Lawson PERIOD! In ANY weight class! You can say what you want, but there's NO boxer in ANY other class who's beaten more world champions or Hall of Famers than Floyd. None. Prove me wrong.
@@DiaAkin his record of 50 wins is iffy as his record should be either 49-1 or 48-2 because of Maidana and Castillo, he’s a great boxer but he avoided fighters like Margarito and Manny. Sure Floyd used the excuse that Manny wouldn’t get tested but Manny later Sued Floyd for that and Floyd shut up after he lost his case. As for fighting the most champions, ig he did but the level competition was different, he was arguably the best of our generation, well him or Manny. It’s debatable how well he would of faired against Prime Manny, Leonard, Robinson, Durán, Hearns, Hagler, Whittaker, Nicolino Locche, or Chavez Sr. I’m not saying they all beat him but he definitely would’ve struggled, Robinson, Hearns, Whittaker, and Hagler best Floyd 99% tho.
match is in vegas and fans are Hatton's .. if true think why .. coz mayweather is a point collector .. not a boxer .. he is more of a fencing guy than a boxer
@@hwknswltr u r a shit head .. this is not a tennis match where we can see who won .. its a judges call .. enjoy the farce .. and feel good .. I will not see this escape artist even if paid to do that
Floyd at 29 vs. connor at 29 Oh wait.. nvm ...he beat him at age 40 by simply walking toward him until Connor gassed and almost passed out on the boxing mat.
That was a joke. Floyd made one adjustment and the fight was over. Connor was like "we didn't expect him to come forward like that". Really, nigga? U didnt expect one of the most versatile fighters ever to be versatile? Yeah, aight.
This fight showed people some of Floyd's ring genius. He stopped using quickness and used his IQ, savvy, toughness and somewhat power to end Hatton. Ricky's tactics of trying to pull Floyd's hands on the inside and smother his punches backfired and caused him to be susceptible to the pull counter and the lead (check) left hook and lead right straight. It was a masterpiece
Hopkins wanted Floyd to lose so damn bad. Dude is literally in De La Hoya’s ear the whole fight. We are the only people on the planet that will root against our champs.
im a floyd fan and black but you gotta be the biggest brainwashed liberal ever to think we have to root for whoever is the same race as us instead of whoever we like more as a fighter. nothing wrong with a black man rooting for hatton
@@nddavi58it’s kind of true though. Beat example is Inoue vs Fulton… Inoue had his whole country behind him while a lot of Americans wanted Fulton to lose
Even the British were surprised at how many white Americans were rooting against Mayweather. The British root for their fighters Black or White. America is just an ignorant nation.
Pretty difficult to beat a guy who's still at 90% in the 10th round, while you're at about 40-50%. And just as a reminder, Mayweather's 90% is still better than your 100%.
BestCanKeanRob2 he was only using the elbow to push hatton off from holding him , he gave his shoulder he never turned his back , hatton was the one hitting behind the head. Ducking isn’t against the rules. With all that said how would any of that be an excuse for getting knocked out with a clean blow. You wouldn’t be saying shit if the outcome was the other way around
Just retards who say these things haha they fight how they want and what works best, you see people go in on Floyd saying that he runs.... ok even if he crawls for 12 who gives a fuck. Just win
@Tom Cass so true floyd never run he is stepping back to avoid punches then set for counter punches. People who say he is running knows nothing abiut boxing most of them are casual pactard fans.
I don’t think people really appreciate the greatness. Then when you watch this 15 years later in 2022 you realize you should’ve appreciated that time more
@@Frietbakkerclan1wonder why Ricky's camp never called this out. Why Ricky accepts his loss as the lesser boxer. Maybe you don't know wtf you're talking about.
I remember leading up to this fight people was swearing that Hatton would knock Floyd out! Floyd gave him the old school beating that I knew he would 👊🏾🔥 #TBE #RIPUncleRoger
Floyd is so fast that he was dropping his hands baiting Hatton in knowing that he could read the punch and counter before it landed. His speed is unreal.
yea he literally does it to everyone, thats his pull counter, his straight right shoots out like a jab, he literally has the best defense and best counter in boxing history
Like him or loath him, Floyd Mayweather is the Professor of Boxing, & in all aspects of Boxing. In all professional sports, we've all scene athletes lose their temper, & as such, they all lose their composure inhibiting their performance. They're called Frustration Fouls. It happens in Basketball/Football/Baseball...etc. Mayweather NOT once did he lose his composure much less his laser like concentration & focus. They say the Boxing is the calculus of fighting, therefore, Mayweather is the "Albert Einstein" of Boxing. It's my objective opinion that Floyd Mayweather is the greatest Boxer who ever lived. Yes, better than Mohamed Ali. I can't believe what I just witnessed, absolute greatness, with classy sportsmanship to boot.
It’s crazy to watch this fight again after so many years. People today say, Floyd only ran his whole career. Best defensive fighter and this nonsense. This fight and many others shows his greatness! He can literally do it all. Man I wish he was still fighting. His greatness is for sure missed in the ring.
He can use his elbows and forearms to stop the other guys offense, that's for sure. He can pick on smaller guys when plenty that are his own size are ready, that's for sure. He snorts dope in his dressing room before every fight, that's for damn sure. Want to see?
@@lilsaff21 'Did Floyd Mayweather get caught using PED'S'? A video of 1:21. There's another video showing the same thing but it's before a different fight. Look for it if you want to see the truth twice. 2 videos showing Floyd using drugs before 2 separate fights, he did that before every fight apparently. Enjoy.
@@lilsaff21 Everything I said is a fact, what you said is opinion. I gave you the exact title of the video showing Floyd snorting dope and you respond asking for a link. Just exactly how lazy are you? You can type the title in 15 seconds. Floyd fans don't want to know the truth, as if it's not the truth if you don't see it. Type in what I gave you, it's the first video to come up and it's1:21 in length. Does it even matter to you that Floyd slandered Pacquiao for 6 years while filling his nose with dope every day? I'll bet you don't know that Floyd paid Pacquiao 20 million$ in an out of court settlement after Pac's lawyers sued him for defamation. Both Floyd's and Roger had to sign a document swearing they would never publicly accuse Pac of using dope again as part of the agreement. The 2 top rivals in boxing and this should have been a huge news story, and yet few if any have heard of it. How do you think it remained out of the news? That's right, Floyd paid another truck load of money to keep it out of the media, all the while still accusing Pac. Did you know that Floyd paid Maidana a bonus of 1.5 million$ in exchange for Floyd having the right to choose Maidanas gloves for their fight? He doubled Maidana's pay because he feared that Maidana would beat his ass like he saw Maidana beat Broner's ass. This is the most embarrassing thing ever in the sport of boxing, yet few if any know about this. Imagine Floyd promoting himself as the G.O.A.T. while paying Maidana so he could make him wear powder-puff gloves. Maidana wore the same gloves in all 40 plus fights, nobody complained because they were standard gloves. Only Floyd cried because he feared the hammer Maidana was swinging. That's the G.O.A.T. doing shit like that?
Beautiful display of boxing by Floyd Mayweather. Allowed Ricky Hatton to come in aggressively, allowed Ricky to gas himself out, picked Ricky apart, frustrated him, just broke him down. There will never be another Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Ppl still crying about Cortez all these years later? Even when Joe let them fight on the inside Hatton wasn't landing anything clean or significant. Meanwhile Floyd was slipping in short hooks and uppercut to the head & body scoring points on the inside. There was literally nthn Ricky could've done to win this fight except pull out a gun.
Well said. Hatton landed *very few* clean shots on the inside. Floyd’s inside fight game is incredible and a lot of people underestimate it. 50-0. TBE. TMT.
This is the right that won my respect for Floyd. He was in enemy territory and showed he could adapt to anyone's style. Say what you want about him, you can't deny he always finds a way to win.
Yeah it was. But to his credit he knew he couldn't box with him. He was just hurling himself at Floyd and hoping Floyd wilts before he did. Unfortunately for him that didn't happen. But props to Hatton for trying like a warrior.
Mayweather's inside game is underestimated... Floyd has that Dawg that haters hate... even in the Miguel Cotto fight.... he could have used his range, feet and speed to outbox cotto for 12 rounds (like he did in the 12th).....but he beat Cotto at his own game.
+Va HOSS Dude Mayweather is genius, he can do whatever the hell he wants inside the ring, he gives me the sense in some fights he;s not even really, really trying, that's how good he is.
One of the Prettiest Set Up Knock Downs leading to a Knock Out Ever! Back peddled into the corner luring his Jaw Bone into a Left Hook that Damn Near Knocked his Head Clean Off. VICIOUS!
The more I watch this fight the more I realize that Hatton wasn't landing much cleanly at all, mostly he was just roughhousing/wrestling and flailing wild punches that were either missing, slapping or illegal to the back of the head. Meanwhile Floyd was doing a number on him, beating him at what was supposed to be Hatton's game on the inside; nice uppercuts, clean hard bodyshots and clean counters along with thudding jabs that was easy to see and even some to the body that literally made Hatton stop in his tracks. Overall despite how it looked (rough) it was a grueling but dominant performance by Mayweather, I love the Ringpost roundup he gave Ricky with the check left hook that gave Hatton the nickname (Ricky "RINGPOST" Hatton) aka the "GET HIT MAN!!"
It is no wonder Floyd kept breaking his hands during the last decade of his career. That speed is incredible. I don't know how you can't say Floyd is the best ever. Boxing isn't all KO's and dog fights. Mayweather is a master of defence. His fluidity and awareness in the ring is unmatched. Hatton is fighting thin air.
black jack1171 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 most people say Castillo or somehow maidana, but judah and Mosley lmfao Judah won the first 3-4 rounds and got packed up the rest of the fight. Those are two blatantly obvious wins for Floyd, stop smoking so much.
@@AmandaFromWisconsin Bit weird this is about boxing and im talking about the atmosphere idk how the english fans creating a better atmosphere then American fans demonstrated why england deserved to lose to italy?
This is one of the fights where Floyd also showed how great and effective he was at fighting inside in a clinch, which is very rare in outboxers. He basically beat an elite infighter in an infight before KOing him with check hooks ~ 😂😂😂
@@MrMarco855 LOL, that's your excuse? Hatton was pressed against his chest the entire fight what do you think he was supposed to do? Also they are fighting at the same weight.
@@MrMarco855 Hatton was actually 8 lbs bigger than Floyd in fight night. The narrative that Hatton is smaller is pure stupidity. They are the same size. People don't realize that Floyd, too, is a small Welterweight.
@@MrMarco855 Mayweather haters are always making excuses on why Floyd wins (which is always, Lol). When a 36-year-old Floyd beat Canelo, people said that Canelo was "too young", even though Canelo had already defended his title six times, and he weighed 15-lbs heavier than Floyd on fight night.
Man, Floyd was on another level. He got in the trenches doing what they said he couldn't do slugging it out with Hatton, luring Hatton into a false sense of security and getting him comfortable rushing in. All the while Floyd was perfecting his timing and I believe when he punched Floyd on the back of the head and threw him into the ropes Floyd decided to knock him out. So he wouldn't get cheated on the scorecard he lured him into the ropes and popped him. Which was also something they said he couldn't do... GENIUS.
Can't get enough of a really brilliantly fought battle, total domination... Mayweather controlled the pace,tempo and engaged when he drained the strength out of his opponent until the right time to surgically operates like a surgeon...his conditioning was the key,his foot-work,he tied his opponent up at the opportune time...hatton had never fought on Floyd's level before,total masterpiece... Mayweather Jr is the best that ever laced them up,true CHAMPION...
This was a rough tough fight. lots of elbows and hard shots and the bottom line is Floyd beat the shit out of hatton. it was a street fight on the inside and boxing from a distance both of which Floyd completely dominated.
To think Floyd fought most of his career in front of crowds that hated him and he still kicked ass. This guy had an enormous self belief. Like him or not Floyed was on another level to anyone!!
Mayweather is a role model for anybody who has ever had a lot of haters. Whether they hate your dark skin, money, or whatever. The fact that Mayweather manipulates his haters to pay him money just to see him win again and again, is ingenious! I don't care how many people hate you, if God has your back, that's all that matters!
If Ricky was in his prime when fighting Mayweather. Ricky would have fucked Mayweather up! Its the drugs and stress that fucked Ricky. Mayweather never had a prime fighter as he is just a fit business man, not a boxer.
Man lobby for the elbows all you want, but if you keep trying to wrap me up, you gone keep getting these elbows. Stop trying to hug in a boxing match and you won’t be close enough to get these elbows!

That was 3% of the "fighting on the inside"... the rest was holding and cuddling lol. U cant just choose one time stamp and pretend that was ALL of how the "inside lighting" went.
I’ve watched about 15 Floyd Mayweather fights over the past 3 days. How anybody can criticize him in the ring is beyond me. Poetry in motion inside the ring.

Check hook, body jab, footwork, head movement. Complete boxer !
The straight right hand too, a thing of beauty 😎
U know they actually give Floyd credit for being the 1st to throw that STAB/Jab to the body??? I’m not sure exactly which fight it is but they mention it in one of the fights that no1 really used that weapon prior to Floyd
And elbows too when is Cortez going to see that
Arms so long his face got in the way. Hatton just got his ass whipped

Nobody ever was as elusive and quick as Floyd. Basically unbeatable. I bet half the punches people couldn’t even see coming.
Floyd is one of those boxers that gets better as the fight goes on.
+QU3STION5 That is a bunch of bullshit right there. When Floyd was at Lightweight Ricky Hatton was fighting at Jnr. Welterweight already. When he fought Arturo Gatti Ricky Hatton was at the ringside and was already a Ring Magazine champion at Jnr Welterweight. My point is, if you have been following boxing and even better if you are a fighter, you would know that for a naturalized Jnr Welters, making a Welterweight is very easy. So your excuse for Ricky Hatton here does not fly. Floyd himself was once a jnr Lightweight. Just give credit to the guy.

+Roy Mustang I'm a huge Ricky Hatton fan, I loved the man's aggression and determination. Every step he took was forward. But the plain and simple truth is Floyd is just a masterful boxer, one of the greatest of all time. If Ricky and Floyd fought 20 times, Floyd would win all 20.

@@gametime6764 "the colonel" bob sheridan. Watch Ali v Foreman, hes the guy who made the iconic call that night
That’s because they’re just what said hater’s he’s definitely one of the greatest a whole lot long list that can’t say that bums 😊
This fight gave me Jack Johnson vibes.
Mayweather is top 5 all time.
Facts. It's simple Mayweather is easily the goat. Theyre just mad Mayweather never got beat or knockout like their favorite fighters have.
Hatton must've felt like he was stuck between a rock & a hard place in this fight. Floyd pot-shotted him from long range, walked him into his powershots, & once Hatton worked his way inside, he found out that Floyd's defence is just as effective in close, as it is from a distance.
yeah floyd puts you in a mixer. Conner thought he knew what he was doing but floyd was just playing him haha

Back in 2024 to watch this masterclass
Ricky Hatton just received a boxing master class lesson from the best boxing professor in the world. The best part of the lecture was in round 8, and instead of 12 rounds Floyd decided to cut the lecture short cause Hatton wasn't learning shit.

That's part of the reason he left HBO
Osirus B lol Floyd has nothing else to prove. He is the greatest
Should've never had a job!!
I've watched a lot of fighters in over fifty years. I have never seen anyone better. Period. I just watch his matches over and over again. So smart and so supreme then anyone I have ever seen in boxing. Period.
Rickey Brown mayweather one of the best all time. I think Ali is goat though! We didn’t even get to see him in his prime
@@amitm1993 undefeated but the shittiest boxer? That makes Shane Mosley, Hatton, De La Hoya, and Maidana absolute bums then. Go watch WWE. Let the grown ups talk about boxing kid.
Amit M maidana was throwing a lot of punches that fight but he was missing a lot too
mayweather don't need to retire he can be champ till the end
@@amitm1993 you don't know shit about boxing
I think that was the best check left hook knockdown in pro boxing to date. The way he set the trap down to the reaction the way he threw the way it landed how he dipped out underneath Ricky all of it was just perfect. To me that sequence of events was the epitome of float like a butterfly sting like a bee.
The definition of “setting the trap”
i think the check left hook in Tank Davis vs Romelo was the best till this day
@@tonyebiere551 Yeah that one was good for sure, but where I'm at with that when comparing the two... the rolly ko, was an opportunity that presented it's self to tank and tank took advantage of it. In my opinion what I think makes Mayweather's better, is Mayweather set that up and baited hatton into that check left hook and it was so short and fast hatton never saw it and Mayweather had already dipped out and under hatton before he went down leaving hatton face first into the post 😂. It was just cleaner to me, but again tanks was great as well take nothing away from tank for that highlight reel KO. Just my opinion.
@@ilovelulu8492 I agree with you on the baiting by Floyd, it was in fact genius. However, considering that Tank was much smaller, shorter and less powerful than Rolly and also considering that Rickey Hatton had been worn out for 9 whole rounds and was weaker at the time he was caught in the 10th round making it hard to recover, not taking anything away from Floyd, I would say that a 6th round K.O when Rolly was still very strong and was in fact the one wearing Tank down has to be my number 1 pick.
Beautiful take brother
Can't nobody see him! Rest easy Roger!! You'll forever be in our hearts!!😢❤
Whatever happened with ol' Roger and that woman he beat up at a hotel?

Round 4, wow what a performance by Floyd. The mauling on the inside in the corner at 24:43. The pot shots to the body straight after it. Making Ricky miss all his punches. The body shots on the inside at 25:43. The short uppercut at 26:06 and stiff jab straight after it. The pot shots up close at 26:28 and that FUCKING BEAUTIFUL step back, right hand to the face straight after it OMG. Then that one two and push away right after it. At 26:33 catches Ricky coming in with a right hand and lands uppercuts on the inside as Ricky is leaning in. Making Ricky miss every single punch while landing short sharp body shots. Floyd really started to time Ricky perfectly in this round, worked out his movements and punch patterns and woud counter in between so beautifully. Absolutely phenomenal. No words for a guy like Floyd. A true master of fighting
You nailed it, sir!! Just reading your comments a year later.
Natural god given ability. No matter how hard you train, you don't get to that level unless you have that god-given natural talent and boxing IQ. Unreal.
Talk to these Cassies lol. Yell
Round 8 was better
Sir, your brilliant Fight analysis was absolutely correct... Wow.
The fact they were still singing a minute after he went down is crazy 😂😂
They were chanting "Floooyd, Mayweather!"
Americans wouldn’t never show one of their own love like that 😒
You don't see too many check hook KOs. Absolutely gorgeous. I forgot about this one.
Only Floyd
ye you forgot this one because it was so memorable ye?....... mayweather worst boxer of all time
I love that commentator that says "Floyd is just a master boxer" every Floyd fight. Literally only one and a half minutes into this fight I'm like "That's just pure genius, so smart etc." Floyd is that damn good!
So?
very true 👊👊
Master dirty boxers he was fighting always scared
All I heard the commentator do is complain about Floyd using his elbow and forearm to negate hattons constant clinching strategy. You can tell he was for hatton
The thing with Floyd is that his style looks so unexciting to the casual fan. But he is an absolute master of boxing. His intelligence in the ring is second-to-none. Ricky's style is far more exciting to watch but it wouldn't work for Floyd. He stalks his prey and waits for a moment to pounce.
Absolutely, yes, he gets away with more than he should.
SS it's part of his shoulder roll
This is fun artistic shit to watch right here. A true master at work, and yes the casual fan has no business. I'll watch any Floyd fight and be amazed at the artistry of his movements.
Craig Lee and that's what most fans notice plus the referee, judge's and who bank rolled him. That has been the boxing game but Floyd was a great boxer and I would have liked to see him fight others that where in his caliber in certain times but he made it his way and most highest paid athlete was a boxer so he's the greatest in that aspect. Can't take it from him so he owns it along with downsides that piss his fans off.
WTF SF yeah he's that good, he was always ready and what's your favorite bout in his career?
I have what I call my “Floyd moments”. Occasionally coming back to watch all his videos. I’m pretty having one right now watching greatness. TBE❤
Hatton and his fans back then were just as annoying as McGregor and his fans today lol Floyd been there and done that.. nothing new
And Floyd beat both noisemakers.
You don’t get fans like us in the uk
jantje de bie The UK has nothing to be that excited about in sports lmao.
@jantje de bie you don't have the American skill or talent
jantje de bie I’m sure the reason Europe has more Olympic medals is because it’s much older than the U.S. We’re only 243 years old man. On top of that the entire continent of Europe is split into many countries so that means whether France wins a medal or Spain or Italy or Greece or the UK, it all falls under Europe. As big as the U.S. is we’re only one country so our wins come as a whole. Another thing I forgot to mention is the systemic racism our country is built upon, which makes it even harder if you’re a minority here, which also equals crazy good minority athletes (you should be no stranger to them, Prince Naseem was an absolute beast). But either way it’s not a landslide, you guys are better at certain things and we’re better at others. Since we’re on a boxing video what’s your opinion on who dominates the sport?
This was my first time watching Floyd box many years ago. I hated his guts (didnt realise he was doing it to sell the fight, back then).. but after slowly watcing Floyd's previous fights, how he counters, dodge + pot shot, slip, roll, combo + def roll and slide, it made me realise he is master boxer. no one comes close or anywhere near his level.
None
Who can?
Chicken
Easy.....willie pep and pernell Whitaker to name a few...
Once Floyd took over Promoting he made sure the PPV numbers were correct and he was saving his hands.He was a superior fighter throughout his whole career
I'm so glad they were singing that stupid ass song when Floyd dropped him.
Thank god for RUclips! I love how we can go back and watch these classic

@@dfw.soledout nobody beats father time my man, are you going to tell me Floyd is on his peak?
this is probably the 50th time watching this fight and it still gives me chills. the support in the building for hatton... the confidence of hatton being 43-0 41 knockouts... fans chanting " there's only one ricky hatton " that fucking place was rocking !! wish i could have been their to experience this. floyd aka the GOAT!
31 knockouts and Muhammad Ali is the Greatest ever.
If he was the GOAT he wouldn't be fighting smaller guys and cherry picking his entire career. Snorting dope before every fight in his dressing room doesn't win him any votes either. Sugar Ray Robinson would beat Floyds ass all night long. He began his pro career at 131-1, was 85-0 as an amateur. Combined he was 216-1 in his first 217 fights. He had 109 KO's in the pro's and 69 KO's in 85 amateur fights. SRR ducked nobody, he fought 7 or 8 times a year and everyone knows that Floyd couldn't carry his jock strap. Floyd lost 6 amateur fights, none in the pro's because he paid the judges. Floyd knocked out Ortiz on a cheap shot and Hatton, a smaller guy. Those are his only KO'S in 10 years. SRR knocked out more then that on his way to the gym every day.
@@MrMarco855 He knocked Hatton sorry ass out. It was no cheap shot when you eat the last 10 punches. Ortiz headbutted Floyd and got what his dirty as deserved, knocked clean out. He's not the Greatest but i can't let you lie like that. 1 things for sure, he'll wear your ass out any day of the week. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
HBO Letterman & Emanuel Stewart picked Hatton lol
@@jamesm4047 So, PacMan picked Hatton to huh? 🤔 Foh. Floyd technically destroyed every fighter he faced. I don't agree with his technique but he whipped ass after going back watching those fights. He let them pass 5 rounds. All of them. He put on a clinic against Canelo's fat ass. Had him KO'D in rd5 and let him survive. As a matter of fact, I'm about to watch that shit right now. James M? I'll tag you in on the shout out. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Floyd ALWAYS throws the correct punch...
onlyjoetee Floyd is so accurate
That left hook was on time
👍👍👍
Even though his most effective is his left elbow !!
big yes
Floyd always had a tank. The most overlooked aspect of him personally was his insane work ethic, despite the public persona. He was nothing less than a stellar professional. Always in elite shape. Always prepared. Always game.
Always prepared to face prime threats at the optimal weight?
@@Kigoz4Life I can't tell if you are being sarcastic, or if you have never looked at the stats of any one of 100 high-pressure, volume punchers that regularly eclipsed his output.

Mayweather’s greatest gift/talent/ability and what separates him from every other fighter ever is visible at 56:50. They had just brawled during the 8th round, and floyd isnt even breathing heavy when the round was over. His conditioning is second to none. He earns his check outside the ring, for sure.
Exactly. Floyd said he trains for 20 rounds
7th round was always Floyd's transition takeover round. He had you figured out and totally disected after six. The best ever..
Now drake you da best I ever had
Enjoy this. We will NEVER see another boxer of this caliber again in our lifetime. Floyd was special.
There's literally nothing he CAN'T do. He beat Hatton in Hatton's specialty...fighting on the inside. The way he completely neutralizes opponents and makes it look easy is almost criminal.
It's a shame he will never get the respect he deserves from the haters because they don't like his personality. But his CHARACTER doesn't diminish what he did in that ring. Truly the greatest boxer to ever live.
You better to resign idiot
Agree 100% the Best EVER Better beleve it
Never know what you haVE until you lose it give him his flowers now that he can smell it...is HONESTY N DECENSY TO DO SO...
@Michael Lawson
PERIOD! In ANY weight class!
You can say what you want, but there's NO boxer in ANY other class who's beaten more world champions or Hall of Famers than Floyd. None.
Prove me wrong.
the fuck is wrong with his personality can someone kindly elaborate
@@DiaAkin his record of 50 wins is iffy as his record should be either 49-1 or 48-2 because of Maidana and Castillo, he’s a great boxer but he avoided fighters like Margarito and Manny. Sure Floyd used the excuse that Manny wouldn’t get tested but Manny later Sued Floyd for that and Floyd shut up after he lost his case.
As for fighting the most champions, ig he did but the level competition was different, he was arguably the best of our generation, well him or Manny.
It’s debatable how well he would of faired against Prime Manny, Leonard, Robinson, Durán, Hearns, Hagler, Whittaker, Nicolino Locche, or Chavez Sr.
I’m not saying they all beat him but he definitely would’ve struggled, Robinson, Hearns, Whittaker, and Hagler best Floyd 99% tho.
Mayweather fought a whole country, his opponent and his own country that night. And still came out victorious in the end.

Oh wait.. nvm ...he beat him at age 40 by simply walking toward him until Connor gassed and almost passed out on the boxing mat.
29 year old floyd man that would be murder lol. Imagine if Conner Faught Canelo or GGG right now? haha
Connor would be still in the hospital right now if Floyd was 29.
@jantje de bie your boy got saved by the ref at 229 and begged khabib not to kill him sit your ass down
That was a joke. Floyd made one adjustment and the fight was over. Connor was like "we didn't expect him to come forward like that". Really, nigga? U didnt expect one of the most versatile fighters ever to be versatile? Yeah, aight.
jantje de bie Mcgregor would try to box in the street too. Get his ass rocked by a quick check hook lol
This fight showed people some of Floyd's ring genius. He stopped using quickness and used his IQ, savvy, toughness and somewhat power to end Hatton. Ricky's tactics of trying to pull Floyd's hands on the inside and smother his punches backfired and caused him to be susceptible to the pull counter and the lead (check) left hook and lead right straight. It was a masterpiece
Hopkins wanted Floyd to lose so damn bad. Dude is literally in De La Hoya’s ear the whole fight. We are the only people on the planet that will root against our champs.
im a floyd fan and black but you gotta be the biggest brainwashed liberal ever to think we have to root for whoever is the same race as us instead of whoever we like more as a fighter. nothing wrong with a black man rooting for hatton
u reaching bro
@@nddavi58it’s kind of true though. Beat example is Inoue vs Fulton… Inoue had his whole country behind him while a lot of Americans wanted Fulton to lose
Even the British were surprised at how many white Americans were rooting against Mayweather. The British root for their fighters Black or White. America is just an ignorant nation.
That tenth round knock down at 49:40 is my top 5 favorite. I've never seen that happen before in my life. A double doink ko.
He did it to Canelo too but didn't drop him
Pretty difficult to beat a guy who's still at 90% in the 10th round, while you're at about 40-50%.
And just as a reminder, Mayweather's 90% is still better than your 100%.
I like that, i like that alot lol.
🥶 true
His 10% is probably better than our 102%
Basically
This is a great post!!!
Why keep asking why Floyd fought mostly on the inside? “I find out what my opponents best strength & *I take it away from them* “
This TKO along with Floyd’s victory over De La Hoya, made Mayweather a Superstar! ⭐️ TBE
“He kept coming I hit em wit some big shots some big body shots and he kept coming. I see why they call him the hit man”....LMFAO.

BestCanKeanRob2 lol cheated ? Please explain
BestCanKeanRob2 then wtf was hatton doing lol
BestCanKeanRob2 he was only using the elbow to push hatton off from holding him , he gave his shoulder he never turned his back , hatton was the one hitting behind the head.

He just didn’t realize there was a shark in the water.
Just retards who say these things haha they fight how they want and what works best, you see people go in on Floyd saying that he runs.... ok even if he crawls for 12 who gives a fuck. Just win
Ya these announcers are pro Hatton...Hatton is a clod
Tom Cass show me the part where I said he ran... learn to read.
@Tom Cass so true floyd never run he is stepping back to avoid punches then set for counter punches. People who say he is running knows nothing abiut boxing most of them are casual pactard fans.
I don’t think people really appreciate the greatness. Then when you watch this 15 years later in 2022 you realize you should’ve appreciated that time more
I will not appreciate holding the whole fight

Nazier Ahmed what “4 fights” did mayweather lose ?!
Like him or loath him, Floyd Mayweather is the Professor of Boxing, & in all aspects of Boxing. In all professional sports, we've all scene athletes lose their temper, & as such, they all lose their composure inhibiting their performance. They're called Frustration Fouls. It happens in Basketball/Football/Baseball...etc. Mayweather NOT once did he lose his composure much less his laser like concentration & focus. They say the Boxing is the calculus of fighting, therefore, Mayweather is the "Albert Einstein" of Boxing. It's my objective opinion that Floyd Mayweather is the greatest Boxer who ever lived. Yes, better than Mohamed Ali. I can't believe what I just witnessed, absolute greatness, with classy sportsmanship to boot.
He is not ONE of the best, he IS the best.
@@jahimuddin2306 Nah. Top 5 for sure. But not number 1
He is in the discussion of the greatest p4p in the history. In my opinion is close between him, Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard and Marvin Hagler.
It’s crazy to watch this fight again after so many years. People today say, Floyd only ran his whole career. Best defensive fighter and this nonsense. This fight and many others shows his greatness! He can literally do it all. Man I wish he was still fighting. His greatness is for sure missed in the ring.
He can use his elbows and forearms to stop the other guys offense, that's for sure. He can pick on smaller guys when plenty that are his own size are ready, that's for sure. He snorts dope in his dressing room before every fight, that's for damn sure. Want to see?

Type in what I gave you, it's the first video to come up and it's1:21 in length.
Does it even matter to you that Floyd slandered Pacquiao for 6 years while filling his nose with dope every day? I'll bet you don't know that Floyd paid Pacquiao 20 million$ in an out of court settlement after Pac's lawyers sued him for defamation. Both Floyd's and Roger had to sign a document swearing they would never publicly accuse Pac of using dope again as part of the agreement. The 2 top rivals in boxing and this should have been a huge news story, and yet few if any have heard of it. How do you think it remained out of the news? That's right, Floyd paid another truck load of money to keep it out of the media, all the while still accusing Pac.
Did you know that Floyd paid Maidana a bonus of 1.5 million$ in exchange for Floyd having the right to choose Maidanas gloves for their fight? He doubled Maidana's pay because he feared that Maidana would beat his ass like he saw Maidana beat Broner's ass. This is the most embarrassing thing ever in the sport of boxing, yet few if any know about this. Imagine Floyd promoting himself as the G.O.A.T. while paying Maidana so he could make him wear powder-puff gloves. Maidana wore the same gloves in all 40 plus fights, nobody complained because they were standard gloves. Only Floyd cried because he feared the hammer Maidana was swinging. That's the G.O.A.T. doing shit like that?
Mayweather's conditioning is unreal. He never gets tired. Round 12 is like Round 1 for him. He hardly even looks out of breath.

One of the Prettiest Set Up Knock Downs leading to a Knock Out Ever!
Back peddled into the corner luring his Jaw Bone into a Left Hook that Damn Near Knocked his Head Clean Off.
VICIOUS!
Floyd Mayweather proves he's world class in this fight, he fought the fight Ricky Hatton wanted him to fight and still beat him.
Well so could i
God bless you Floyd and your family man your going through a lot losing your Children’s Mom and your Uncle Roger! My prayers go out to you!
"Folks you're watching a master boxer at work."
Still looking in July 2023!
Never gets old!
Classic!
The more I watch this fight the more I realize that Hatton wasn't landing much cleanly at all, mostly he was just roughhousing/wrestling and flailing wild punches that were either missing, slapping or illegal to the back of the head. Meanwhile Floyd was doing a number on him, beating him at what was supposed to be Hatton's game on the inside; nice uppercuts, clean hard bodyshots and clean counters along with thudding jabs that was easy to see and even some to the body that literally made Hatton stop in his tracks.
Overall despite how it looked (rough) it was a grueling but dominant performance by Mayweather, I love the Ringpost roundup he gave Ricky with the check left hook that gave Hatton the nickname (Ricky "RINGPOST" Hatton) aka the "GET HIT MAN!!"
@Nobby Barnes It's isn't, I just made it up!!
It is no wonder Floyd kept breaking his hands during the last decade of his career. That speed is incredible.
I don't know how you can't say Floyd is the best ever. Boxing isn't all KO's and dog fights. Mayweather is a master of defence. His fluidity and awareness in the ring is unmatched. Hatton is fighting thin air.
@Death Guidance Floyd will sleep you
He's a master boxer but he's not TBE, he should've lost to judah and mosley imo.
@Death Guidance shut up sore loser, floyd jumped the weight too.
black jack1171 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 most people say Castillo or somehow maidana, but judah and Mosley lmfao Judah won the first 3-4 rounds and got packed up the rest of the fight. Those are two blatantly obvious wins for Floyd, stop smoking so much.
@@wutang5503 exactly! Castillo and Maidana.
All the Hatton fans went home heartbroken after this fight
Yep hatton may have lost but hatton fans won the night if you know what i mean american sports fans are awful this was in america too
@@olliered9924 no
And boozed up like idiots...lol
@@olliered9924 It perfectly demonstrated why England deserved to lose to Italy.
@@AmandaFromWisconsin Bit weird this is about boxing and im talking about the atmosphere idk how the english fans creating a better atmosphere then American fans demonstrated why england deserved to lose to italy?
Floyd's ability to fight dirty, throw sneaky shots in the clinch, wrestle and tie up opponents who want to brawl was very underrated.
Had to revisit this monumental boxing master class 50-0
All these years I focused on the hits, I NEVER realized Hattons corner threw in the towel, even they knew he got his ass beat
Anyone else see Denzel Washington getting hype in the back.😂
Michael Page yup
You see Mark Cuban??
I want to see this, when ??
YES, JUDGE MATHIS, AND WESLEY SNIPES THEY WERE SO HYPED.
Yup he saw what we r all saw
Dont get many fights like this anymore. Undefeated champion vs undefeated champion.
Floyd "IP Man" Mayweather tells his student, "when you can take the pebble from my hand, then you'll become a real boxer."
That was David Caradine from kung fu😊
This is one of the fights where Floyd also showed how great and effective he was at fighting inside in a clinch, which is very rare in outboxers. He basically beat an elite infighter in an infight before KOing him with check hooks ~ 😂😂😂
Yup!!! I was surprised Floyd took that route!
@@HansumTrini He was fighting a smaller guy using elbows and forearms the whole time.
@@MrMarco855 LOL, that's your excuse? Hatton was pressed against his chest the entire fight what do you think he was supposed to do? Also they are fighting at the same weight.
@@MrMarco855 Hatton was actually 8 lbs bigger than Floyd in fight night. The narrative that Hatton is smaller is pure stupidity. They are the same size. People don't realize that Floyd, too, is a small Welterweight.
@@MrMarco855 Mayweather haters are always making excuses on why Floyd wins (which is always, Lol). When a 36-year-old Floyd beat Canelo, people said that Canelo was "too young", even though Canelo had already defended his title six times, and he weighed 15-lbs heavier than Floyd on fight night.
Man, Floyd was on another level.
He got in the trenches doing what they said he couldn't do slugging it out with Hatton, luring Hatton into a false sense of security and getting him comfortable rushing in. All the while Floyd was perfecting his timing and I believe when he punched Floyd on the back of the head and threw him into the ropes Floyd decided to knock him out. So he wouldn't get cheated on the scorecard he lured him into the ropes and popped him.
Which was also something they said he couldn't do... GENIUS.
TBE Floyd on another level boy.no one equalled him
Can't get enough of a really brilliantly fought battle, total domination... Mayweather controlled the pace,tempo and engaged when he drained the strength out of his opponent until the right time to surgically operates like a surgeon...his conditioning was the key,his foot-work,he tied his opponent up at the opportune time...hatton had never fought on Floyd's level before,total masterpiece... Mayweather Jr is the best that ever laced them up,true CHAMPION...
Floyd was a very special talent. A True Champion!
i love how Floyd throws a punch and then grabs Hatton before Hatton can throw a punch and then they reset Floyd is very very smart
ruclips.net/video/NQualvQ5_Lo/видео.html
This was a rough tough fight. lots of elbows and hard shots and the bottom line is Floyd beat the shit out of hatton. it was a street fight on the inside and boxing from a distance both of which Floyd completely dominated.
To think Floyd fought most of his career in front of crowds that hated him and he still kicked ass. This guy had an enormous self belief. Like him or not Floyed was on another level to anyone!!
55:28
Mayweather is a role model for anybody who has ever had a lot of haters. Whether they hate your dark skin, money, or whatever. The fact that Mayweather manipulates his haters to pay him money just to see him win again and again, is ingenious! I don't care how many people hate you, if God has your back, that's all that matters!
😍😍😍😍😍
Doing what most rappers, boxers gamg bangers do, spen his money on strippers, gold cars 😅 great role model 🤣😂🤣😂
You should really be called Wis Dumb.
And fuck God as well. I heard his son Jesus used to suck farts out sheep's arses.
His god is money
Ricky hatton was a huge ppv attraction and his fanbase was crazy, floyd is a really smart man.
You are right
lissongreenbanger and he was undefeated
lissongreenbanger now he did the same shit to mcgregor and mcgregor couldnt put up 1/4th of a fight ricky did
If Ricky was in his prime when fighting Mayweather. Ricky would have fucked Mayweather up! Its the drugs and stress that fucked Ricky. Mayweather never had a prime fighter as he is just a fit business man, not a boxer.
Stress Tech, 50-0...
That Rd 8 man....sheesh! Floyd beat that man like he owed him euros
Pounds knobhead and it’s football not soccer
@@Jaxzys you get the point though, correct?
@InternationalPhilippineFlyer Lmao you're a salty floyd hater.
@InternationalPhilippineFlyer Mayweather is best of all time. Pacquiao is top 10
The UK have pounds not euros dumbass
Man lobby for the elbows all you want, but if you keep trying to wrap me up, you gone keep getting these elbows. Stop trying to hug in a boxing match and you won’t be close enough to get these elbows!
Man if floyd said U.K. fans take y’all a** back home I would of died laughing lol
Like him or loath him, Floyd Mayweather is the Professor of Boxing, & in all aspects of Boxing. In all professional sports, we've all scene athletes lose their temper, & as such, they all lose their composure inhibiting their performance. They're called Frustration Fouls. It happens in Basketball/Football/Baseball...etc. Mayweather NOT once did he lose his composure much less his laser like concentration & focus. They say the Boxing is the calculus of fighting, therefore, Mayweather is the "Albert Einstein" of Boxing. It's my objective opinion that Floyd Mayweather is the greatest Boxer who ever lived. Yes, better than Mohamed Ali. I can't believe what I just witnessed, absolute greatness, with classy sportsmanship to boot.
🧂🧂🧂
25:39 he get's critisized for fighting toe to toe. Yet they were always upset and called him boring when he fought otherwise....smh
the hate is real my bro
They also say he never really fought anyone of significance. Ricky Hatton was 43-0 and a champion🤷🏾♂️ It’s hard being black in America
@@jumpingonoffthejet9377 No one says that unless they're a casual. Everyone knows Mayweather beat the best, Mosley, Hatton, Canelo, Marquez, Maidana, Pacquioa, cotto, etc
Patrick S - Then I guess the internet is full of casuals then, cause outside Floyd’s fans, they say all types of outlandish shit. Very rarely do you see a boxing fan that’s not a fan of Floyd’s give him his props.
That was 3% of the "fighting on the inside"... the rest was holding and cuddling lol. U cant just choose one time stamp and pretend that was ALL of how the "inside lighting" went.
Floyd beat the piss and vinegar out of Hatton in round 8.
+Kay D He put them faith healing hands on his ass.
yea he pretty much went liu kang on hatton ass
Kay D 😅😅😅
Larry Merchant hated every step of the way as Floyd’s orchestrated the greatest career of any sportsman period.He has to feel stupid
This was the beginning of the end for the Ricky Hatton legacy. He was never the same after this fight. He left it all in the ring here.
You mean he realised he's just a brawler, not a boxer...
@@mymodel6 He was effective with his style for 43 fights until he ran into Floyd.
